To reduce the dependence on availability of railway racks (wagons), to reduce delay in reaching of material to steel plant, due to huge increase in production and availability of environmentally friendly technology, a 129km iron ore concentrate Vimta Labs Limited, Hyderabad 1 Pre-Feasibility Report for Expansion of Noamundi Iron Ore Mine (ML Area :1160.06 Ha), From 10 MTPA to 19 MTPA (ROM) With Total Excavation of 27 MTPA, Enhancement of Iron Ore Beneficiation Capacity (Feed to Plant) From 18 MTPA to 27 MTPA in Total Project Area 1230.42 ha at Noamundi Along with Iron Ore Slurry Pipeline from Noamundi to Jamshedpur Pre Feasibility Report slurry and return water pipeline is proposed with all other required structures from Noamundi to Jamshedpur. 2.0 INTRODUCTION OF THE PROJECT/BACKGROUND INFORMATION 2.1 Identification of the Project & Project Proponent Tata Steel Limited was established in Jamshedpur, India in the year 1907. Tata Steel is part of the 150-year-old Tata group. Bringing to reality the vision of its founder, J. N. Tata, who inspired the steel and power industry in India, the Tata Steel Group is the 10th largest steel manufacturer in the world and is known to be the hallmark of corporate citizenship and business ethics. TATA Steel (based on capacity) is the 10th largest steel manufacturer in the world and amongst the top 3 global steel companies. Tata Steel has been adjudged as the ‘Steel Industry Leader’ globally by the Dow Jones Sustainability Index 2018 (DJSI). Tata Steel is also the only India-based company to emerge as a winner among all 60 sectors evaluated for DJSI 2018. With operations in 26 countries and commercial presence in 50 countries, the Tata Steel Group has a steel production capacity of 27.5 MTPA (as on March 31, 2018). Tata Steel India has manufacturing units at Jamshedpur, Jharkhand, with a production capacity of 10 MTPA and at Kalinganagar, Odisha, with a production capacity of 3 MTPA. In FY 2017-18, Kalinganagar unit received approvals for expansion to 8 MTPA. Tata Steel operates with a completely integrated value chain that extends from mining to finished steel goods. Therefore, the captive requirement of the iron ore will gradually increase from 35.6 Million tonnes in 2020- 21 to 46.7 million tonnes in 2021-22, which would go up to ~ 59.9 million tonnes by 2029-30. The expansion of iron ore mines from existing capacity to future requirement is due to large organic and inorganic growth of company. The copy of mining lease is attached as Annexure-I. 2.2 Brief Description and Nature of the Project Noamundi is a captive iron mine of m/s Tata Steel Ltd. and is been operational from last several decades. Currently, Noamundi has iron mine of 10 MTPA and beneficiation & dispatch of 18 MTPA. It is proposed to expand the capacity due to the captive requirement of iron ore to cater the need based on the requirement of Jamshedpur & Kalinganagar steel plants and other sister companies (Tata Metaliks Limited, Tata Sponge Iron Limited, TAYO, Bhushan steel Ltd). The iron ore mine shall enhance the production capacity from 10 MTPA to 19 MTPA along with beneficiation capacity from 18 MTPA to 27 MTPA (Feed to plant). All other support services are available to fetch the goal of the division. Vimta Labs Limited, Hyderabad 2 Pre-Feasibility Report for Expansion of Noamundi Iron Ore Mine (ML Area :1160.06 Ha), From 10 MTPA to 19 MTPA (ROM) With Total Excavation of 27 MTPA, Enhancement of Iron Ore Beneficiation Capacity (Feed to Plant) From 18 MTPA to 27 MTPA in Total Project Area 1230.42 ha at Noamundi Along with Iron Ore Slurry Pipeline from Noamundi to Jamshedpur Pre Feasibility Report As per EIA Notification dated 14th September 2006, as amended on date, the production enhancement of Noamundi Iron Mine from (ROM) from 10 MTPA to 19 MTPA and beneficiation (feed to plant) from 18 to 27 MTPA project falls under Category “A”, Project or Activity 1(a). 2.3 Need for the Project and its Importance to the Country and Region India is the world’s third-largest producer of crude steel (up from eighth in 2003) and is expected to become the second-largest producer. The steel sector in India contributes nearly two per cent of the country’s gross domestic product (GDP) and employs over 6,00,000 people. The growth in the Indian steel sector has been driven by domestic availability of raw materials such as iron ore and cost-effective labour. Consequently, the steel sector has been a major contributor to India’s manufacturing output. The Indian steel industry is very modern with state-of-the- art steel mills. It has always strived for continuous modernization and up-gradation of older plants and higher energy efficiency levels. Presently, India’s crude steel capacity is around 126 Million Tonnes (MT) and Production of crude steel was 97.4 MT during 2016-17. The Union Government has given its approval for National Steel Policy (NSP) 2017 on 03.05.2017. The new Steel Policy enshrines the long-term vision of the Government to give impetus to the steel sector. It seeks to enhance domestic steel consumption and ensure high quality steel production and create a technologically advanced and globally competitive steel industry. The policy projects crude steel capacity of 300 million tonnes (MT), production of 255 MT and seeks to increase per capita steel consumption to the level of 160 Kg by 2030 from existing level of around 60 Kg and major segments of consumptions are infrastructure, automobiles and housing sectors.

The components of land i.e., soils, climate, water, nutrient and biota are organised into eco-system which provide a variety of services that are essential to the maintenance of the life support system and the productive capacity of the environment. Our land mass is fixed, but the competition among different kinds of uses for this land is increasing because of rapidly rising global population. Therefore, integrated land resource planning and management are required to resolve these conflicts and soil resource survey seems to be a viable means in this process and knowledge of soil fertility status and problems of soils like soil acidity/alkalinity become essential for sustainable land use plan. Soil fertility is an aspect of the soil-plant relationship.

    BRIEF PROJECT SUMMARY Vedanta Limited, formerly known as Sesa Sterlite Limited (SSL)/ Sesa Goa LTD, a Vedanta Group company is one of the world’s largest global diversified natural resource majors, with operations in zinc-lead-silver, oil & gas, iron ore, copper, aluminium and commercial power. Vedanta Limited (Vedanta) is contemplating to establish a green field 0.5 MTPA hot metal plant (Pig Iron), 3 MTPA of pellet plant. The process for production of hot metal is based on blast furnace, sinter plant and coke oven plant. Vedanta is already having 0.832 MTPA pig iron manufacturing unit at Goa along with 1.0 MTPA sinter plant, 0.6 MTPA heat recovery coke plant & 60 MW waste heat recovery plant. The proposed project area is located at Dimbuli Village, Circle Manoharpur, West Singhbhum District, Jharkhand State. Process Details 1. Hot metal (Pig Iron) Plant: The following has been considered for 0.5 MTPA blast furnace and related facilities: A. 0.5 MTPA Blast Furnace: It is proposed to install a blast furnace of 0.5 MTPA capacity in Manoharpur village Jharkhand. This furnace will be a modern blast furnace equipped with hot blast stoves, bell less top, and pulverized coal injection including O2 enrichment. B. Sinter Plant: The availability of the calibrated iron ore lumps is becoming scarce; hence it is proposed to install sintering machines of adequate capacity along with the blast furnace. The advantages with the use of sinter is that, it improves the productivity of the blast furnace, lowers the coke rate, allows usage of low iron bearing material and low value coke breeze in the production.
