INTRODUCTION OF THE PROJECT/ BACKGROUND INFORMATION 2.1 Identification of Project and Project Proponent Letter of Intent (LOI) for mining of minor mineral sand has been granted under Dept of Mines, Govt. of Jharkhand by Asst. District Mining Officer, Dhanbad (Jharkhand) vide Memo No.546 dated 30.03.2015, for the period of 3 year to Shri Jagdish Tiwary, S/o Late Ram Chabila Tiwary, Village:- Panchmahli Bardangal, P.O. + P.S.- Kumardhubi, Dist:- Dhanbad (Jharkhand), proprietor Shri Jagdish Tiwary, S/o Late Ram Chabila Tiwary. The area of mining is 19.473 Hectares approximately. The details of the project proponent and project are given below: Name of the applicant Shri Jagdish Tiwary Address of Applicant Shri Jagdish Tiwary, S/o Late Ram Chabila Tiwary, Village:- Panchmahli Bardangal, P.O. + P.S.- Kumardhubi, Dist:- Dhanbad (Jharkhand) Name of Mine Chirkunda Balu Ghat Over Brakar River, Dhanbad district of Jharkhand Mineral Sand Area (ha) 19.473 Status of Project New contract 2.2 Brief description of nature of the project The proposed mining contract area is 19.473 hectares of Chirkunda balu ghat of district Dhanbad, Jharkhand. It has been proposed to excavate 13, 30, 992 Cum of sand in 3 years from the bed of Barakar river of district Dhanbad, Jharkhnad. The production capacity will be 4, 43,664 Cum/A. The Sand material will be replenished during in monsoon season every year, as the mining will be undertaken on a rotation basis, in such a way that excavated areas of previous years mining will act as depository for the post monsoon season. 2.3 Need for the Project and its Importance to the Country or Region Building huge infrastructure as envisaged by Government of India particularly in road and housing sector requires basic building and construction raw materials. The sand is one of primary building material required for the purpose. The mining activities as proposed are the backbone of all construction and infrastructure projects as the raw material for construction is made available only from such mining. The sand to be excavated is in high demand at the local market for real estate and infrastructure industry. This project will also provide employment to local people helping them earn livelihood. In addition to this, it will further prevent widening of the above 4 Chirkunda Balu Ghat on Brakar River, Dhanbad, Jharkhand Pre-Feasibility Report Shri Jagdish Tiwary, Village:- Panchmahli Bardangal P.O + P.S:- Kumardhubi, Dist:- Dhanbad (Jharkhand) mentioned rivers bed due to the deposition of sediments which if not mined out will result in raising of the river bed causing flooding, damage to the adjoining areas, destruction of life and property. 2.4 Demand-Supply Gap The demand for Sand is ever growing with the growth of the infrastructure sector in our country. The mineral is used mainly in the construction activities like roads, buildings, bridges. The requirement for the mineral is always high throughout the country. Therefore there is always a good demand of the mineral in the domestic market. 2.5 Imports vs. Indigenous Production The demand in the domestic market is high sand mineral is available in abundant quantity in the contracted area and can be excavated indigenously. Import does not apply in the present case of sand mining. 2.6 Export Possibility There is no proposal to export the sand. 2.7 Domestic/ Export Markets Domestic Market The sand excavated will be directly sold in the market. Export Market The proposed mining activity is for indigenous consumption only for real estate and infrastructure sector etc. No possibility of export of sand from this contract. 2.8 Employment Generation (Direct and indirect) due to the project This project operation will provide livelihood to the poorest section of the society. It will provide employment to the people residing in vicinity and indirectly by the development of supporting infrastructure. 3.0 PROJECT DESCRIPTION 3.1 Type of Project Including Interlinked and Interdependent Projects, If Any. The proposed project of 19.473 Hectares is of Sand mining project. The mineral excavated will be directly transported to the real estate, construction and infrastructure projects. 3.2 Location The mining contract has been granted by the mining department for excavation of balu/sand throught the river beds of district Dhanbad.
