This part of the plateau is a well known store are Non-silicate minerals and are most expensive and house of mineral resources such as used in specific purposes. After Industrial revolution Feldspar,Pegmatitic vein quartz, China clay, Copper, discoveries and exploitation of various natural Fluorite, Graphite, Iron ore, Coal, Kaolinite, minerals were at its pick especially in the secondary Mouldingsand, Manganese, Limestone, Gold, Rock sectors. Globalization then brought all places of phosphate, Uranium etc. Here the paper at first sources of natural resources opened and rate of highlights the physiographical characteristics of the exploitation of resources picked its highest level and Purulia which naturally helped to understand the economic development too. Irrespective of the fact, occurrences of minerals found in the district of West some sources rich in minerals like Purulia which is Bengal. In fine the paper tries to unveil the possibilities even today identified as economically backward. In of optimization of the available minerals which could this stage the paper tried to understand the bring in real development in this so called physiographical characteristics of this extended part of economically backward Purulia district. Chotanagpur plateau, the Purulia district and its major Keywords: Distribution, Minerals, Physiography, mineral deposits. Beside this the paper highlighted the Purulia etc. possible reason(s) behind limited growth of mineral based industries in this region. INTRODUCATION STUDY AREA Minerals are the valuable natural resource constituted naturally by some molecules. Human in his or her This district is extended between 22º42'35" and initial stage of civilization discovered the application 23º42'0" North latitudes and 85º49'49' and 86º54'37" of minerals. The periods of such applications were East longitudes.Midnapur,Bankura and Burdwan divided into different ages like stone, districts of the West Bengal and Dhanbad, Bokaro, copper,Bronze,Iron etc.Since time immemorial to the Hazaribagh, Ranchi, West Singbhum districts of present Holocene age,human have been significantly Jharkhand state bound this district. The total exposed and exploitednatural resources like minerals geographical area of the district 6259 sq.kms, which forthe developmentof civilization.Minerals are the includes urban area of 79.37 sq.km (1.27 percent) and hidden natural resource collected from rocks as rock is rural area of 6179.63 sq. km(98.73 percent). The composed of one or several minerals.Basalt and district headquarter is situated at Purulia. www. jespublication.com Page No:221 Vol 11, Issue 5,May/ 2020 ISSN NO: 0377-9254 Fig. 1: Location of the study area OBJECTIVES mineral resources are made in GIS environment by using Q-GIS software. The main objective of the paperis aiming to identify the physiographical Characteristics of Purulia district. PHYSIOGRAPHICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF Secondly, the research is tried to highlight major PURULIA deposits of mineral resources in the district. Finally the paper wanted to find out the reason(s)of lack of Chotonagpur plateau is situated north-eastern part of mineral based industries in spite of such richness in Indian peninsular. Purulia district is located eastern mineral resources in this district. part of Chotonagpurplateau, it is the major part of Ranchi plateau. The geomorphic structure of Purrulia METHODOLOGY district is very ancient.The characteristics of relief in purulia is very uneven, erosative, undulating. It is one Database in relation to fulfill the objectives is made on types of paniplane. This regionhas suffered from the basis of secondary sources like data from different prolong erosion, faulting, uplifting and deposition. As offices. Utilization of maps and diagrams are based on a result entire area converted hill, valleys, succession various secondary sources as well.

At all three sites, bats were found to occupy different tree species (Eucalyptus sp., Dalbergia latifolia, Tamarindus indica and Terminalia arjuna) outside villages for day roost sites in close proximity to water bodies. Behavioural observations were made based on all occurrence method where all behaviours observed for duration of 30 minutes was noted during each census for the entire study period. Favourable roosting conditions were found to support higher bat abundance. Moreover, bat abundance and ambient temperature were found to be negatively correlated, and mass die–offs and population decline were recorded in the hotter months of the year (April – July). Study of bat guano revealed aspects of their feeding habits and their pivotal role as seed dispersers. Information from local villagers affirmed that the bat populations occurring at the roost sites are more than a century old and are regarded as sacred.

  • An Updated Checklist of the Mammals of West Bengal
    Journal on New Biological Reports ISSN 2319 – 1104 (Online) JNBR 8(2) 37 – 124 (2019) Published by www.researchtrend.net An updated checklist of the mammals of West Bengal Jayanta Kumar Mallick Wildlife Wing, Forest Department, Govt. of West Bengal (Retd.), India Corresponding author: [email protected] | Received: 09 April 2019 | Accepted: 31 May 2019 | How to cite: Mallick JK. 2019. An updated checklist of the mammals of West Bangal. J New Biol Rep 8(2): 37-123. ABSTRACT The Checklist of Mammalian fauna of West Bengal has been updated after more than two and half decades to include recent taxonomic changes, new additions and distribution records for West Bengal. In this checklist, 234 species (Extant 211, Extinct 23) and 215 sub-species, belonging to 137 genera, 39 families and 11 orders, are reported.

    E2767 v. 3 Public Disclosure Authorized ACCELERATED DEVELOPMENT OF MINOR IRRIGATION (A.D.M.I) PROJECT IN WEST BENGAL Public Disclosure Authorized ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT (Stakeholder Consultation) FIELD STUDY REPORT (PART II) Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT /DFR ENVIRONMENT & ECOLOGY Project: Accelerated Development of Minor Irrigation Page 1 o f 162 Document: 2008084/ENV&ECO/DFR Date: December, 2010 Stakeholder Consultations EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Field Study of the environmental aspects of MI in the ADMI project was spread over 30 blocks, specified by WRIDD from all the six agro- climatic zones of West Bengal, namely, Hill Zone, Terai-Teesta Flood Plain, Vindhya Alluvial Zone, Gangetic Alluvial Zone, Undulating Red Laterite Zone and Coastal Saline Zone. The field activities were conducted during October 2008 and March 2009. By and large, the meetings were well attended with a substantial / significant presence of the the poor including women and SC/ST people. The participation strength ranged between 21 and 70. A preliminary list of the adverse environmental impacts were prepared on the basis of secondary information and the reconnaissance visits prior to the field studies. These were raised at the stakeholder consultation meetings (SCM) and focus group discussions (FGD) held in the project blocks. The objectives of the study were: (a) to understand the ground-level perception and experience of the environmental impacts of minor irrigation from the multiple points of view of the stakeholders; (b) to get an idea of the diverse environmental impacts of the MI schemes in the sample blocks; (c) to identify the reasons of the present status of the existing MI schemes as perceived by the different stakeholders; (d) to elicit the stakeholders’ suggestions about rehabilitation of the existing MI schemes in their respective areas and their views on viable alternatives; and, (e) to make a rapid environmental assessment of the project sites with reference to known environmentally sensitive areas.
