litho units in the area. Grano – Diorites with basic enclaves of Supra - Crystals like Horneblende Schists, Biotite Schists also occupy the area. These rock types are exhibiting various landforms like Domes, Inselbergs, Castle - Koppies, Whalebacks and Linear Ridges.
The geological succession of the area as worked out by GSI (1991) is as follows :
RECENT ALLUVIUM / SOIL COVER
Quartz Veins, Pegmatites Dolerites, Gabbro, Pyroxenite Dykes
Fine Grained Pink Alkali Feldspar Granite, Medium to Younger Coarse Grained Pink Alkali Feldspar Granite
Granite With Mega Crysts of K-Feldspar, very coarse grained Pink Alkali Feldspar Granite
Medium to Coarse Grained Pink Granite Migmatite II Fine grained Grey Alkali Feldspar Granite Precambrian Granitiod - Migmatite Complex Medium to Coarse Grained Grey Alkali Feldspar Granite
Very Coarse - Grained Grey Alkali Feldspar Granite Migmatite I Grano - Diorite
Pink Alkali Feldspar is the most dominant rock type in the area with variations in grain size, scattered outcrops of Migmatites containing Neosomes of medium to Coarse - Grained Grey Alkali Feldspar Granites occurs at many places. A number of Quartz, Grey and Pink Pegmatites and Epidote Veins Criss are crossing the host rock. Basic dykes of Dolerite, Gabbro & Pyroxenitic Composition traverse the granites in NW-SE, NNW-SSE, E-W & NE-SW directions. Thin veneer of alluvium is found limited to streams.
b) Detailed description of geology of lease area
The Quarry Lease area in part of Hill trending in N - S Direction. Entire quarry lease area is covered with Road Metal & Gravel which is rising up to 60 M above ground level trending N – S, the length of the exposed body measured 145M in the area with an average width of 70 M.
The quarry lease area is in the form of exposed outcrop and below by sheet. The rock in the quarry lease area is peninsular gneissic rock of Archean age and it is medium to coarse grained texture which is light gray in colour, compact, brittle in nature and is consisting of Quartz and Feldspars as essential minerals (Felsic minerals) and other muscovite, biotite etc., are accessories minerals (mafic minerals).
The Road Metal & Gravel can be extracted from the rock available in the quarry lease area which is useful in Civil construction purposes.
c) Details of prospecting / mining carried out
No mining is carried out.

Method of Estimation of Reserves
The area forms a part of the Hill located 430 m above the GL. Since the deposit is of plutonic origin with deep seated and no depth resistance is exploded. The reserves are estimated to a conservative depth of 30 m BGL (i.e.up to G.W. level).
However, as the subject area is located 290 m above G.L 30 m from surface area of the deposit in lease area is considered for estimation of reserves.
The Description of estimation is discussed below.
The deposit is found to be irregular in shape. Hence cross sectional method adopted for Estimation of Geological Reserves. 2 Sections A-A1 & B-B1 were drawn at equal distance perpendicular to the trend direction of the formation to estimate the reserves (Plate – IV).
The area between surface profile and assumed UPL during the lease period i.e. RL falling the section is taken as sectional area and the Influence of sectional Influence on either side (i.e.S1+S2/2).So the sectional area multiplied by Sectional Influence. mention in the total volume of Road Metal in the section.
g) Reserves and Resources as per UNFC. Detailed calculation of reserves shall be stated
The deposit up to RL 230 M i.e. 90 M depth below the surface is considered as Proved Reserves (Plate – IV).
UNFC rules are not applicable for mining the rock mass for exploiting the Road Metal &Gravel.
