M/s. K.L. Granites Private Limited – 1.0 Ha Sy.No: 106/1P, Budhawada Village & Chimakurty Mandal, Prakasam District, Andhra Pradesh. Pre-Feasibility Report & EMP 2.3 NEED FOR THE PROJECT & ITS IMPORTANCE TO THE COUNTRY/ REGION:

Rapid industrialization and growth in infrastructure has made global as well as domestic demand for Granite. So number of Granite manufacturing quarries & industries are coming up in this sector. Granite is the chief material in this sector, for the export industries like monuments, flooring slabs, Kitchen articles, sculptures & export. The size & quality parameters for supply of the mineral will be as per the requirements of the user industry.

The mining and associated activities in the mineral rich areas increase the gain s in gross domestic product (Gross Domestic Product).Total of 30 people will be employed for the mining activity. It will create ample opportunity for employment to local population. For the mineral production applicant will pay royalty, direct and indirect taxes will also paid and it will also contributing to the regional revenue.

The proposed Granite mining project will cater the need of requirement for individual and market. Besides this, the project will prove beneficial in terms of socio economic development.

2.4 DEMAND – SUPPLY GAP:

Granite is a constituent for infrastructural development projects like buildings and constructions. It has high demand in region due to increase in industrial and other infrastructural activities.

2.5 IMPORTS VS. INDIGENOUS PRODUCTION:

The excavated granite will be dispatched to the block cutting industries located in the state and at different parts in the country. There will be indigenous inputs in the entire mining activity. The Granite is used in various Construction and Architectural uses as well as making decorative items, which also have export market.

3.0 PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

The project activity is Granite mining. In India, the number of operating opencast mines is steadily increasing as compared to underground mines. It is due to low gestation period, higher productivity, and quick rate of investment.

M/s. K.L. Granites Private Limited – 1.0 Ha Sy.No: 106/1P, Budhawada Village & Chimakurty Mandal, Prakasam District, Andhra Pradesh. Pre-Feasibility Report & EMP On the contrary, opencast mining attracts environmental concerns such as solid waste management, land degradation and socio-economical problems.

Most of the adverse impacts of mines are amenable to technological control by providing necessary preventive and control measures and finally through effective environmental management of the operating mines. Environment Clearance is required for project from State Environmental Impact Assessment Authority/State Expert Appraisal Committee as per MoEF, EIA notification 2006 & Its Amendments thereof.

3.1 TYPE OF PROJECT INCLUDING INTERLINKED AND INDEPENDENT PROJECTS, IF ANY;

The mining of Granite is carried out by open-cast semi-mechanized method. This is an independent project. No interlinked project is proposed.

3.4 SIZE OR MAGNITUDE OF OPERATION:

Mine area for the Proposed Granite Mine is – 1.0 Ha and proposed production Capacity is 4,647 m3/Annum.

3.5 PROJECT DESCRIPTION WITH PROCESS DETAILS (A SCHEMATIC DIAGRAM / FLOW CHART SHOWING THE PROJECT LAYOUT, COMPONENTS OF THE PROJECT ETC. SHOULD BE GIVEN).

Details regarding topography geology, mineable reserves, and production details, Method of mining and extent of mechanization are given below;

3.5.1 Topography:

The area is located on Topo Sheet No: 57 M/14 at the junction of Latitude 150 35’20.40” N and Longitude 790 48’ 39.14” E . The general height of the lease and adjacent to it is of the order of 60 mts above MSL.

3.5.2 Regional Geology:

Regionally the area is comprised of Archean rocks, which were subjected to granulite facies of metamorphism. The area forms part of Eastern Ghat Granulite Belt(EGGB) with a part reflecting Eastern Migmatite Zone(EMZ),charnockite, khondalite,two pyroxene granulite, migmatite after charnockite and khondalite form the oldest rock regionally .This is followed by Penninsular gneiss and schistose rocks. The regional trend of foliation in the granulites and schists is NNE-SSW with steep dips to ENE. Foliation trending

Pre-Feasibility Report & EMP ENE-WSW with steep southerly dips and NNW-SSE with easterly dips and WNW-ESE with steep northerly dips are not uncommon. 3.5.3 Local Geology: The lease area is mainly covered by the variants of gabbroids.It has 1m thick soil underlain by melano gabbro(Noritic gabbro).he lease is on the eastern slope of a hill known as Yerrakonda. Occasionally, melano gabbro occurs as out crops and the weathering is insignificant. The rock is fine to medium grained noritic gabbro and is black in colour. It is essentially made up of plagioclase, diopside, augite with considerable degree of percentage of bronzite.

3.5.4 Geological Reserves:

3.5.6 Method of Mining:

Methods to be adopted:

The Mining operations are carried out by adopting open cast semi- mechanization method.

Brief Description: To cut down the cost of production and achieving the required quantities as per market requirements, the operations are planned to be carried out partly by manually and partly by machinery.

The overburden mining consists of soil, morum, weathered rock and hard rock. The weathered rock and useless boulders can be drilled by Jackhammers to blast them for removal. The excavators load the blasted fragments/debris in to dumpers and then transport to waste dump yard.

After removal of overburden and weathered rock, small and medium size boulders or hard sheet rock will expose. The boulders are split into two or more pieces in required sizes for making marketable blocks. The exposed sheet will be cut in the conventional manner by selecting a suitable platform. The platform will be constructed by digging for positioning machines. The first cut will be a triangular cut. Further cuttings will be rectangular for removing the mass from in-situ mass.

3.5.7 Extent of Mechanization:

The machinery requirement is mainly for drilling and transporting the materials. The details of required machinery are presented in Table 3.2.
