The stone is one of primary building material required for the purpose. The mining activities as proposed are the backbone of all construction and infrastructure projects as the raw material for construction is available only from such mining. The stone extracted is in high demand at the local market for road construction and real estate industry. Employment Generation The proposed mining activity will provide employment to about 18 workers. The workers will be hired mostly from the nearby villages. Location The mining lease area is located at Village- Domchanch, Thana- Koderma, District- Koderma and State-Jharkhand.

Archaeans Pegmatities and quartz veins, basic intrusive- dolerite Amphibolites, granite gnessic, pink, porphyritic gnessic hornblende schist and amphibolites quartz- muscovite schist,quartz silliminite muscovite schist and micaceous quartzites. 2 DOMCHANCH STONE MINE PFR LESSEE: SHRI MANJIT KUMAR MEHTA Local Geology: the geology of the Koderma stone deposit follows the regional stratigraphy of this region. The area is a part of geological formation of the lease area comprises mainly rocks of Archaean age with compact deposits. The area represents rock land topography with restricted rock exposure. Most of the area is covered with weathered soil. On the basis of geological field study, a geological map, which have been prepared with a contour interval of 3m showing all features of geology. Dolerite occurring in the under references is the basic intrusive trending N60* WS60*. It is a continuous body extending all along the area. Dolerite rocks are holocry stalin and the hand specimen of the rock of this area show planarity texture. Method of Mining Mining will be carried out by open cast method under Category-B-small category of mining with formation of benches by drilling and blasting and formation of benches will be 3m height and 3m wide. During the mining operations will involve drilling , blasting, mucking , loading , transportation of stone and waste etc. certain operations may be used shovel & dumper for removal of overburden and others may be done manually. Drilling will be carried out by jackhammers. Compressed air is supplied to the jackhammers from the portable tractors mounted compressor. Stone and stone dust will be transported by truck/dumper to the users. The drill hole will be done up to a depth of 1.50m in two rows with the diameter of 32-34mm. The holes will be charged with gun powder with safety fuse will be used in proposed blasting. The blast holes will be charged with gun powder with proper stemming to avoid misfire. The following mining parameters are proposed Type of working : Opencast Semi- Mechanized Bench height : 3 m Bench width : 3 m PRODUCTION DETAILS The Proposed Production of Stone in next year: Year Production of stone in Generation of Intercalated 3 Tonnes Waste (m ) 1st 19564 2220 3 DOMCHANCH STONE MINE PFR LESSEE: SHRI MANJIT KUMAR MEHTA 2nd 19634 1683 3rd 19635 7043 4th 19626 -- 5th 19683 -- Total 98042 10946 Solid Waste Generation & its Disposal From the development plan it is clear that there will be generation of overburden and intercalated waste from total excavation. It is proposed that all the waste shall be used for making and maintenance the mine road and surroundings and development of the nearby villages. Rest waste will be backfilled either old existing quarries towards western side of the lease area or planned period existing developed quarries also. About 0.12ha and height of the backfilled area will be upto the surface level and it will be leveled. Therefore disposal of the waste has not been chosen within the lease area. SITE ANALYSIS Connectivity The area is easily approachable from kachha road via metalled road, the site is well connected to the kachha road further it meets Satgawan road. SH-13 is at approx. 1.5 km towards North direction. Maheshpur Halt Railway Station is approx. 0.60 km towards North direction. Gaya Airport is approx. 83 km towards WNW direction. Physiography Koderma district is the part of Chotanagpur plateau. The area exhibits undulating topography comprising hills, hillocks, mounds and plains. Valley fills with low to moderate frequency of lineaments, pediplains with moderate frequency of lineaments and pediplains are major geomorphological units of the district. Concentrations of lineaments are more in Chandwara, Koderma and Jainagar blocks and less in Satgawan and Markacho blocks of the district. Northern part of the district is occupied by Koderma Reserve forest. The highest peak is Debour Ghati (677 meter) that is the state boundary of Jharkhand and Bihar.Jainagar, Markacho blocks are covered by pediplain. Koderma block consists monthly of directed plateau (Hills / Valley). Upper part of Chandwara block consists of dissected plateau and lowest part by pediplain. Satgawan block is covered by pediplain in upper parts, ridges and 4 DOMCHANCH STONE MINE PFR LESSEE: SHRI MANJIT KUMAR MEHTA valley in middle parts and erosional valley in lower parts.
