INTRODUCTION Pursuant to the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change, the Government of India Notification No. SO 141 (E) dated 15.01.2016 and SO 190 ( E) dated 20.01.2016 the District Level Environment Impact Assessment Authority (DEIAA) and District Environment Appraisal Committee (DEAC) were constituted in Erode District for the grant of Environmental Clearance for category “B2” projects for quarrying of Minor Minerals. The main purpose of preparation of District Survey Report is to identify the mineral resources and developing the mining activities along with other relevant data of the District. The DEAC will scrutinize and screen scope of the category “B2” projects and the DEIAA will grant Environmental Clearance based on the recommendations of the DEAC for the Minor Minerals on the basis of District Survey Report.

OVERVIEW OF MINING ACTIVITY The Mining of minor minerals like Quartz, Feldspar, Dimension stone and Gravels are active in the district. Private companies play a major roll in mining activity where as the Government agencies like TAMIN take part in mining dimension stones only. The major minerals like Copper Ore, Chromite, PGE and Gold are reported in the district but they are not in minable quantity and there no any mining activity in those deposits. The office of the Deputy Director, Department of Geology and Mining is functioning under the control of District Collector, Erode. The Deputy Director, Geology and Mining is assisting the District Collector in the Mineral Administration works. 3 3.
