DISTRICT SURVEY REPORT, PURULIA DISTRICT, WEST BENGAL
1. PREFACE The purpose and structure of District Survey Report has been discretely discussed under Para 7(iii) (a) and Annexure (x) of the notification issued by Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change, Government of India on 15th January, 2016. The District Survey Report (DSR) is to be prepared in every district for each minor mineral. It will guide systematic and scientific utilization of natural resources, so that present and future generation may be benefitted at large. The purpose of District Survey Report (DSR) is identification of areas of aggradations or deposition where mining can be allowed; and identification of areas of erosion and proximity to infrastructural structures and installations where mining should be prohibited. The District Survey report (DSR) is comprised of secondary data published & endorsed by various departments and websites about geology of the area, mineral wealth details, details of lease and mining activity in the district and revenue of minerals along with the primary data collected from ground survey. This report also contains details of climatic conditions, topography and terrain, land form, forest, rivers, soil, agriculture, road, transportation, irrigation etc. The DSR would also help to calculate the annual rate of replenishment wherever applicable and allow time for replenishment. On November 1956, Purulia district was merged with the state of West Bengal being carved out by the former Manbhum district of Bihar on the recommendation of the State‘s Reorganization Committee. Geographically, Jharkhand encircles this western most district of West Bengal, Purulia, flanking its three sides, while its western boundary is flanked, for most of the major part, by the district of Bankura. On the north-eastern side, it also touches some parts of Burdwan district and on the south eastern part, it touches Medinipur district. Present setting of the district is as follows: It‘s latitude and longitude extents are from 22º42ꞌ35ꞌꞌ to 23º42ꞌ00ꞌꞌ N and from 85º49ꞌ25ꞌꞌ to 86º54ꞌ37ꞌꞌ E respectively. The total geographical area of the concerned district is 6259 sq. km. The state of West Bengal has an important position in mineral production of the country. In terms of value, the state accounts for 3.8% of mineral production in India and occupies the seventh position. Availability of apatite, coal, china clay & fire clay enrich the domain of mineral deposits of Purulia district. Other minerals that occur in the State are barytes, copper, gold, kyanite, pyrite and titanium minerals in Purulia district. Feldspar, granites, limestone also occur in Purulia district. Lead-Zinc and sillimanite have also been reported from Purulia district.

2. INRODUCTION The entire geological report encompasses the history of river bed, river bank sand deposition and gravel deposits in the form of palaeo-placer or fossilized channels. To prepare the District Survey Report (DSR) of Purulia district of West Bengal, the concept of GREEN FIELD THEORY (or somewhere the concept of BROWN FIELD THEORY) has been taken into account just to depict the history of overall geology followed by disposition of different types of lithounits. The Purulia district forms the last two steps in the descent from the hills of central India and Chotanagpur plateau to the Damodar plains of West Bengal. According to the structure and landforms, Purulia is a part of Ranchi peneplains of Jharkhand state of India. Purulia is no doubt a land of rivers but is very poor in its underground water resources because of its crystalline basement. The depth of water table varies from 3 metres to 12 metres. The major part of the district is represented by peneplain with widely scattered residual hills produced by denudational processes. The peneplain shows a rolling topography with a gentle east-ward slope, covered by residual granitic soil. Purulia district lies in the interfluves between the Damodar River in the north and the Subarnarekha River in the south and is drained by their numerous tributaries, viz., Kasai, Kumari, Dwarakeswar, Silabati, Totko, Jamuna, Nangasai, Hanumata, Chaka, Patlai, Jore etc. The investigated areas of Purulia district are mainly rugged, undulatory and hilly in nature. Presence of hills of Purulia like, Ayodhya Hills (712m), Baghmundi Hills (700m), Panchakot Hill (183m) , Joychandi Hill (155m) give a glimpse to the geological history of the concerned district. A number of residual hills isolated and detached from the parent body. At the southern periphery of the Baghmundi Hills, the prominent outliers within the district are the 377m-high Kadali Pahar and 348m,- high Khaira Pahari. There are similar hillocks of igneous rocks extending further south up to the Dalma lava range in Singhbhum district of Jharkhand state. The important peaks on the main highland mass of Baghmundi - Ayodhya are the Gonja Pahar (580.5 m), the Gugui Pahar (580.5 m) to the north west where porphyritic granite - gneiss are the predominant rock. Schist and gneisses occur on the southern and southeastern faces of the Baghmundi Scarps where Gorgaburu and Karma Hill have high peaks being 677m and 663mrespectively.Basically Purulia district is considered geologically as a tecto- metallogenic province imprinted by different deformational episodes.

(Source: http://matirkatha.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/District-Wise-rainfall.pdf) d) Topography and Terrain Topographically most parts of Purulia district may be considered as peneplain with slight undulating surface configuration. Actually it is a part of the Ranchi peneplain. Presence of few monadnocks and small eroded hills like Ayodhya, Baghmundi, Panchet, Joychandipahar and moderate absolute altitude and moderately low relative relief indicates that this region is in the old stage of cycle of erosion. The hills abound to the west while plains gradually appear to the east. Absolute relief increases towards the west and south. General elevation of the land surface ranges from 300 m to 150 m, the master slope being towards the east and southeast.300 m contour line has divided the district into two distinct physiographic units characterized by different cycles of erosion and lithology: Lower Plateau Region in the western and southern part sand. Erosional plain with isolated mounds and hills comprising the rest of the district covering about 70 percent of the total area.

e) Water Course and Hydrology The district of Purulia is underlain by pre-Cambrian metamorphics except in a small area in the northeastern part where sedimentary of Gondwana age predominate. Unconsolidated sediments of Recent to Sub-Recent age are restricted to the narrow river channels and to the valleys. The most common rock of widespread occurrence in the district is granites and granite gneisses into which metabasics occur as intrusive. Ground water in the district occurs mainly in (1) weatherd zone (2) saprolitic zone (3) Fractured zones of hard rock (4) narrow zone of unconsolidated sediments along the river valleys. The weathered zone varies in thickness and attains a maximum thickness of the order of 25m. Ground water occurs under water table condition and it is mostly developed by dug/open well. At some places these wells go dry during peak summer. These dug wells yield up to 2.75 lps. Saprolitic zone is sandwiched between weathered mantle and fresh rock mass in granitic terrain. The depth of this zone varies between 10-30 mbgl, with an average thickness of 4m. Ground water occurs under semi confined condition and yield up to 2.5 lps is recorded. Drawdown in the wells tapping in this zone is much less and recovery is quite fast.

DISTRICT SURVEY REPORT, PURULIA DISTRICT, WEST BENGAL
In the hard rock ground water exploration has been conducted down to 198 mgbl. The occurances of saturated fractures are generally restricted to 50 to 110 mbgl. The shallow fractures at 50-60 m depth are tapped mainly by borewells fitted with hand pump and yield varies from <1-2.77 lps. Deeper fractures are encountered at 100 – 110 m depth, yielding around 3 lps as observed at Manbazar. In Gondwana sediments, drilling down to 103 m reveals the existence of fractures within the depth of 24– 36 mbgl which are capable of yielding 3.3 – 5.5 lps. Unconsolidated sediment zone along the river valleys are of limited thickness and fall within 5-13 mbgl with areal extent not exceeding 1 – 2 >5.5 m. Open wells and shallow tubewells yield upto 20m3/hr at economic drawdown for a considerable period of pumping. f) Ground Water Development Pre monsoon water level ranges from 4.32-11.68 mbgl and during post monsoon 2.07-5.60 mbgl in ground water monitoring wells. Seasonal fluctuation show rise in water level. No abnormal rise or fall in water level is observed throughout the district. Table 5: Status of Ground water Development (Block wise)

g) Drainage system (general) The rivers that flow across the district are few in number and these rivers remain dry during most of the year. These rivers are very turbulent only for a small period during the monsoon and thus provide little scope for fishery. Pisciculture is taken up in these tanks as a secondary measure. These tanks where rainwater is collected during the rainy season, get dried up during other seasons especially when the district experiences drought conditions. The principal rivers of this district are Subarnarekha, Kasai, Kumari, Dwarakeswar, Damodar, etc. Rivers of this region are characterized by parallel and trellis drainage pattern. h) Demography The baseline demographic and socio-economic characteristics with regards to demography, literacy and occupational status have been described based on the Primary Census Abstract, 2011. In the major portion of the study area principal language is Bengali. The principal staple food is rice. The primary sources of drinking water are tube wells, hand pump water and supply water.

The study of age composition is helpful in determining the proportion of employable persons in the total population. According to 2011 census report the working age group of the population is considered as 15-60 years. However, in the field survey we have found active participation of the age group of 60 and above in all sorts of activities of the industry with the required skill and expertise.

Employment Scenario in Purulia: The importance of agricultural and industrial sector in the field of employment generation has increased during the past three decades. Simultaneously non-worker portion of the population has moderately decreased. It is a positive indication towards solution of unemployment problem. Thus the high proportion of agricultural worker with high rate of illiteracy (46.8% illiterate among rural people) implied lower stage of economic development. However census 2011 shows decline in the percentage of main workers as against total population in one hand and on the other hand rise in the percentage of marginal and non-workers. It is mostly due to non-creation of employment opportunities to a desirable extent in the district. While higher percentage of non-worker population hints that human resource is vastly available in the district and subject to deploy in the sericulture industry for inclusive growth of the industry as well as economy of Purulia.

j) Landform and Seismicity Physiographically Purulia is characterized by Purulia shear zone and lineaments. The nature of terrain and its features indicate that except hilly areas, the general height ranges between 200- 300 m above mean sea-level. Two main hills of the district are Ayodhya (677 m) and Panchet (643 m). Seismically it comes under the earthquake prone Zone II (Least Active) k) Flora The most common species found within the study area are sal (Shorea robusta), sisoo (Dalbergia sissoo), simul (Bombax ceiba), siris (Albizzia lebbeck), akashmoni (Acacia auriculiformis), khair (Acacia catechu), kadam (Anthocephalus kadamba), eucalyptus sp., sidha (Lagerstroemia perviflora), jarul (Lagerstroemia speciosa), arjun (Terminaliaarjuna) etc. Many migratory bird species assemble here during winter. This water body may be termed as a lifeline for the inhibitors of Purulia town in the one hand and a repository of aquatic species on the other.

the tropical dry deciduous type dominated by Sal. Compared to the richness, the taxonomic contributions to the flora are mostly indirect and rather inadequate. While studying the flora, Malick (1966) recorded 94 families, 287 genera and 405 species of angiosperms of which 78 families, 235 genera and 324 species were dicots and the rest monocots. While preparing the pollination calendar of the Purulia district Majee et. al., (1998) recorded in total 315 angiosperm species were along with information about their mode of pollination, frequency, habit and flowering periods. From the work of Paul (2003), on the site the then proposed for Purulia Pumped Storage Hydropower Project at Bagmundi Hills as many as 246 species under192 genera of 78 families of angiosperms could be known of which 54 species are ethno-botanically important. Jain and De (1966) have made very important contribution to the ethno-botany of Purulia district. They prepared an inventory of 210 plant species used by different aboriginal tribes for food, medicine and miscellaneous domestic purposes. The work of Pal (1980, 1982) documented the folklore of different tribal groups about the veterinary use of 20 angiospermic species. Monocotyledonous and one pteridophytic. Chakraborty and Bhattacharjee (2006) enlisted 57 plant species belonging to 40 families of Purulia district along with their ethno-medicinal uses recorded from knowledgeable informants belonging to Bhumij, Birhor, Kheria, Munda, Oraon and Santhal communities. Most of these plants have no or less toxic effects on human being. Some of these plants, e.g., Aristolochia indica, L. Costus speciosus (Koen.) J. E. Smith, Litsea glutinosa (Lour.) C. B. Rob. , Mallotus philippensis (Lamk.) Muller-Arg.,Uraria picta (Jacq.) Desv. Ex DC etc., have started becoming locally endangered due to overexploitation, pollution, tampering of soil, lack of pollinating agent etc. collateral with their medicinal utilization there is a crying need for preservation of germplasm of such locally endangered plant species. Edible wild plants: Subsequent to 12 years of intensive ethnobotanical studies in the district, Basu and Mukherjee (1996) could document 16 little known food plants along with their family name, local name, habit, collection number, date, parts used and mode of preparation. Fiber yielding plants: The work of Chakraborty (2003) enumerated15 plants pieces of 14 families which are used by different tribal groups of the district as source offibres. Plants in lacculture: Lac-culture plays a major role in the economy of this district. The distribution of lac-bearing trees in Purulia was studied initially by Das (1959) and subsequently by Basu (1999) during their ethno- botanical investigation in different tribal areas. Basu (1999) recorded 12 ethnic groups and 17 plant species associated with this culture for production of shell-lac. The work of Modak (2010) gives a comprehensive idea about the lac industry their present status and tribal dependency on the industry.
[Source:https://shodhganga.inflibnet.ac.in/bitstream/10603/21329/14/8%20chapter%20iii%20review%2 0of%20literature.pdf] The natural and valuable forests of the district are confined in Banduan areas i.e. in Duarsini, Chirudi and Kuilapal areas bordering the West Midnapore in east and forests of Jharkhand state in south and west. The Baghmundi and Matha are hilly areas and the flora is mixture of sal and miscellaneous forests, Shrubs and Creepers etc. In those areas apart from natural vegetation the Forest Dept. has planted various types of trees like sal, Akashmani, Subaul etc.), Gmelina arborea (Bena), Cygnopogom amyracae (Babuigrass), Cynodon dectyloll (Durba) etc. (Source: Biswas et. al.,2008) l) Fauna 39 species of mammals, 9 species of Amphibians, 27 species of Fish, and 9 species of mollusce, pangolin, leopard, wolf and elephant are found in this region. Most interesting is Madras Tree Shrew

Though, major elephant habitat is engulfed by PPSP. At present number of such resident elephant is considered to be 8- 10.A part from that seasonally migrated herd of elephant from nearby Jharkhand forest took shelter in this area for days together in different seasons of the year.

4. PHYSIOGRAPHY OF THE DISTRICT a) General Landform Physiography of a region determines the nature of drainage which in turn affects the soil forming processes and properties of the soils. Different characteristics of slope such as steepness, aspects etc., all affect the soil erosion with varying degrees. Regionally unidirectional general slope of the field results into sheet erosion; undulating topography with local slopes in more than one direction causing rill or gully erosion although soil texture is another factor. Physiographically, most parts of Purulia district may be considered as peneplain with slight undulating surface configuration. Actually, it is a part of the Ranchi peneplain. Presence of few monadnocks & small eroded hills like Ayodhya, Baghmundi, Panchet, Joychandi pahar with moderate absolute altitude and of moderately low relative relief, indicate that this region is in the old stage of cycle of erosion. The hills abound towards west while plains gradually appear towards east. Absolute relief increases towards the west and south. General elevation of the land surface ranges from 300 m to 150 m, the master slope being towards the east and southeast. Most of the streams have easterly to south easterly course except the northerly flowing tributaries of Damodar River and the westerly flowing tributaries of Subarnarekha River which form the part of the northern and western boundaries of the district respectively. Most of the streams have cut deep valleys into the eastern lateritic uplands.

Generally sandy soils have lower runoff rates, and are more easily detached, but less easily transported than silt soils. Clay soils are not easily detached, but lower infiltration rates may lead to greater run-off and increased erosion. Silt soils tend to have the greatest erodibilities since particles are easily detached and transported. Organic matter has considerable binding effect on soil particles.

5. LAND USE PATTERN OF THE DISTRICT INTRODUCTION Land cover is the physical material at the surface of the earth. Land covers include grass, asphalt, trees, bare ground, water etc. Land use shows how people use the landscape – whether for development, conservation, or mixed uses. Land use refers to the purpose the land serves, for example, recreation, wildlife habitat, or agriculture. Deciduous forest: Woody vegetation with a percent cover >60% and height exceeding 2 m. Consists of broad leaf tree communities with an annual cycle of leaf-on and leaf-off periods, dominated by trees that lose their leaves each year. Cropland: Temporarily cropped area followed by harvest and a bare soil period (e.g., single and multiple cropping systems). Built up land: A developed area, i.e., any land on which buildings and/or non-building structures are present, normally as part of a larger developed environment such as: developed land lot, rural area, urban area. Mixed forest: Vegetation formation composed principally of trees, including shrub and bush under storey, where neither broad-leaved nor coniferous species predominate. Shrub land: Land with woody vegetation <2 m in height and with >10% shrub canopy cover. Fallow land: Fallow Land is farmland that has no crops on it, usually for a year, to recover its fertility to grow crops. Land taken up for cultivation temporarily allowed remaining uncultivated for one or more seasons. Waste land: Sparsely vegetated land with signs of erosion and land deformation that could be attributed to lack of appropriate water and soil management, or natural causes. An empty area of land, especially in or near a city, which is not used to grow crops or built on, or used in any way and/or a place, time or situation containing nothing positive or productive, or completely without a particular quality or activity. Water body: Areas with surface water, either impounded in the form of ponds, lakes, reservoirs or flowing as streams, rivers, etc. Can be either fresh or salt-waterbodies. Plantations: A plantation is the large-scale estate meant for farming that specializes in cash crops. Wetland: A wetland is a distinct ecosystem that is inundated by water, either permanently or seasonally. The primary factor that distinguishes wetlands from other land forms or water bodies is the characteristic vegetation of aquatic plants, adapted to the unique hydric soil.

DISTRICT SURVEY REPORT, PURULIA DISTRICT, WEST BENGAL
The district has the broad categories of paddy producing land identified as (1) Bahal (2) Kalali and (3) Baid. Bahal lands are the quality paddy land, Kanali are the second class, while Baid is the poorest class paddy land. Agriculture is the principal occupation of the people. About 40 per cent of the total land area is used for agricultural purposes. The district is a ‘White Zone’ in respect of ground water status (i.e., 60 per cent of available ground water annual recharge is in use). In general, during the rainy season the water level in the wells raises up to 1.00- 3.50 mgbl till the end of October and gradually falls down maximum of 6-14 mgbl during April-May. As already stated, the Purulia district is one of the drought prone districts of West Bengal. The rainfall is erratic in nature with occasional draught in between the rains. Irrigation plays a major role in district‘s agriculture though irrigation through Heavy Duty Tube Well (HDTW), Medium Duty Tube Well (MDTW), Light Duty Tube Well (LDTW) and Shallow Tube Well (STW) is absent. c) Horticulture The horticulture fruit crops grown in the district are mango, papaya, banana, pineapple, guava and the horticulture vegetable crops grown in the district are brinjal, cucurbits, tomato, cabbage, cauliflower, ladies finger etc.

Type, obtainability and distribution of mineral resources are basically the reflection of antiquated paragenetic ore- geological sequence. The acreage of state of West Bengal is candidly sanctified with the enormous natural resources including prospective minerals and being a part of tract of Rarh Bengal and Chotonagpur plateau. Purulia is extremely enriched with numbers of minerals. Not only that but also the benevolence of magnificent rivers systems maximum part of the area is covered by deposited ordinary river sand. Rock formation of the area is alluvial rocky upland and undulating lateritic upland these formations undergo series of metamorphic cycles, like weathering, erosion, transportation and deposition of sand material. Sand is very abundant minor mineral resource of the district. Demand for river sand is enormously increased for infrastructural construction purposes as, building construction road construction, other concretized infrastructural developments. Therefore, illegal mining, without proper mining plan and unscientific disappearance of river sand from the river beds is not only initiate natural and environmental hazards but also will accelerate economic setback of the surrounding areas and need proper initiatives in this regard.

Geologically the meta- sedimentaries are the older group of rocks here. They comprise of calc- granulite, crystalline limestone, and garnetiferous-sillimanite schist. Within the vast occurrence of granites and granite gneisses, metabasics occur as intrusive. The rocks of Gondwana i.e. of Permian & Triassic age in the northeastern part of the district are represented by shales & ferruginous sandstones of the Barren Measure Formation along with sandstones, shales and coal seams of the Raniganj Formation. The unconsolidated sediments comprising of coarse to fine sand, silt, clay, lithomargic clay, yellow clay, calcareous nodules and laterite, play a vital role to form unconsolidated sediments. These are not extensive realistically but they bear a cryptic signature of importance from point of view of groundwater exploitation only in the vicinity of rivers. The regional structure gives the message of isoclinal folds, in which the fold axes are either horizontal or plunging at low angles towards east or west. General E-W strike of the formations is predominant with moderate to steep northerly and southerly dips. Reversals of dips are the manifestations of regional folding and shearing of the concerned rocks locally. Well-developed and prominent foliations in the meta-sediments having uniform WNW-ESE strike and with steep dips due north are also noticeable here. Presences of quartzites give the picturesque of weathering and formed low ridges & the intervening valleys which are usually composed of the easily weathered schistose rocks. The granitic rocks generally form hills and mounds. The porphyritic granite shows planar banding of alternate layer of feldspar phenocrysts and a finer grain assemblage of quartz, feldspar and accessories. It gives supportive evidence to the structural trend of the schistose country rocks. They are often well jointed. The junction between the Gondwanas and Archaeans is demarcated by the boundary fault. Two shear zones are observed in the Purulia District. One of them, known as South Purulia Shear Zone (SPSZ) exists along the boundary between the Singhbhum Group and Gneissic Complex and another Shear Zone (North Purulia Shear Zone, i.e., NPSZ) has been traced further to the north between Jhalda and Ragunathpur. These shear zones are susceptible to erosional activity (https://shodhganga.inflibnet.ac.in). The most prominent rock type observed in the region is an E-Wto NE- SW trending porphyritic granite body extending from Tulin in the west to northeast of Bero in the east. To the south of the porphyritic granite body lies a vast area comprising grey granite, granite gneiss, migmatite, basic granulites, charnockite, sillimanite schist and anorthosite. The rocks of various geological ages ranging from Archaeans to Recent, found in the district may be grouped into following categories (https://shodhganga.inflibnet.ac.in). 1. CHOTANAGPUR GNEISSIC COMPLEX: a) Granite gneiss and Migmatite: They cover almost 56 percent of the total area of the district and are found in all blocks except the Bandoan & the southern part of Barabazar, Balarampur, Manbazar, north eastern part of Nituria and southern Santuri. These rocks are hard & foliated and can easily be weathered.
b) Quartz and Quartz Schists: These hard-layered rocks occur mainly in extreme northwestern part of Jhalda and as small patches in Barabazar and Para.
c) Calc-granulites, calc schists and crystalline limestones: These rocks are found in northern part of Jhalda and as small patches in Jaipur and Nituria.
d) Mica schist: These soft and flaky rocks occur in central part of Jhalda II, north of Arsa, southern part of Bagmundi, Balarampur, Barabazar, as patches in Jaypur, Purulia II, Para, Kashipore, Santuri, extreme northwestern part of Raghunathpur and eastern part of Manbazar.

SOURCE: DISTRICT RESOURCE MAP (GEOLOGY AND MINERALS), PURULIA, WEST BENGAL PUBLISHED BY GEOLOGICAL SURVEY OF INDIA, 2001 LOCAL GEOLOGY To facilitate and systematize the Geological description and to grip the idea about local geology, the area has been studied imposing special emphasis on different factors and the entire area has been divided into a number of sectors. Lithounits encountered in the investigated area give the actual view about the local geology pertaining to different tectonic episodes followed by different types of geomorphological sculpture of the area carved out by granite gneisses and different types of fluvial agencies. In the area Baradih and Bhurudih villages in and around Balarampur and Barabazar of purulia districts, swarms of mini and micro lineaments which are present and are manifestations of concealed fractures and foliations lying within the metamorphites. This type of lineaments is called Riedel type of katz (1967 b) which are generally produced due to shearing effect of major faults or faults couple having strike E-W. The area of investigation has suffered poly phase deformational episodes of folding and crumpling of schistosity. The basement rocks of the area are highly punctured due to pervasive nature of hidden strain. The stalwart action of deformation has produced schistosity within the different bedding planes of the disposed rock units of the studied area. Amount of dip of foliation is greater than 55º towards NE direction. A prominent shear zone is known to occur trending almost E-W and passing through the south of Balarampur and termed as South Purulia Shear Zone (SPSZ), exhibiting features indicative of a brittle-ductile deformational regime (Bhattacharya, 1989; Dasgupta, 2004). Evidences of shear forces acted along some E-W trending, nearly vertical weak planes during the third tectonic period

7. MINERAL WEALTH
OVERVIEW OF MINERAL RESOURCES Mineral resources are finite and non-replenishable, that is why, and conservationists all over the world have raised concerns. Limitations in land availability, restrictions in use of forest land, rehabilitation & resettlement of people displaced from their lands and environmental aspects have been the major issues that have been cited. On the other hand, there is a growing demand for industrial as well as economic growth to compete with global markets and economy. In view of the above, exploitation of available mineral/mineral resources to get necessary utility products, value additions to product are imperative. Government would have limited role to play. Technological advancement would also trigger growth of industry. The mineral industry will be forced to look into further exploration for discovery of new deposits and increase new resource bases and at the same time look into the resource conservation and environmental protection for our next generation to grow. It is felt, that the industry should aim towards the scenario of sustainable growth on a sustenance basis in mineral sector while exploiting the available resources. Most of the mineral also occurring in the different geologic environments of Purulia district, can’t be defined as resources as they are found in thrifty & meager quantities and can never fulfill the demand of growing industries. From academic point of view these are interesting but these are not commercially viable. However, both major & minor minerals are found to occur within Purulia District. Sand, especially riverbed sand, is naturally occurring granular material composed of finely divided rock and mineral particles ranging between 0.0625 mm to 2 mm in diameter. Basically, riverbed sands are produced due to weathering of rocks by mechanical forces. By a long- lasting process, the weathered rocks form gravel and further disintegrate to sand. Gravel occurs here as unconsolidated accumulations and consist of particles larger than sand (diameter >2 mm), that is granules, pebbles, cobbles, boulders or any other combinations of these. Concepts of size distribution of different particles that play a pivotal role in the formation of riverbed sand deposits are vividly clear from Wentworth‘s size classes of sedimentological particles. The canonical definition of sediment grain sizes as defined by geologist Chester K. Wentworth in a 1922 article in The Journal of Geology: "A Scale of Grade and Class Terms for Clastic Sediments" is given in Table 16.

Metadolerites (from Anusandhan Mines, Palsora), quartz from mines at Balarampur, limestone deposits, china clay deposits, glass sands, mica deposits, talc and steatite deposits reported from Khusbani, Pukulunkata, Haludbani of Purulia and dimension stones derived from Chhotanagpur Granite Gneissic complexes are all together considered as minor minerals.In Survey of India Toposheet Nos. 73I/10, I/11 and E/15, Dimension Stone prospects were identified during regional reconnaissance work, (FS 1994-95 and 1995-96). Detailed survey for evaluation of Dimension Stone resources was carried out subsequently in Isradanga- 1, Isradanga-2, Upardanga, Upardanga-North, Barapanjania, Sindurpur, Bansa-2 and Bansa-3 blocks in parts of Purulia District, West Bengal, within the Chhotanagpur gneissic complex. The Investigated area of the Chotanagpur Granite Gneiss Complex forms a raised undulating terrain sloping easterly and dissected by a network of drainage system. The domain experienced a long history of tectonism resulting in high grade metamorphism, polyphase folding, fracturing, shearing and recurring magmatism. The prospective blocks taken up for detailed study exhibits typical granite landforms such as inselberg, tors, isolated boulder clusters, slightly raised sheet rocks, etc. The relief of the landforms varies from near ground level to about 100m at the maximum (N.K. Sarkar, 1999). DETAILS OF MAJOR AND MINOR MINERAL RESOURCES Following minor and major minerals (classification have been done based on Indian MineralsYearbook 2017) have been reported from different parts of Purulia district but are seldom in economically viable quantities:

8. SAND AND OTHER RIVERBEDMINERALS
A. Sand and Other Riverbed Minerals
(i) Drainage System A number of rivers and rivulets drain the district. All the rivers have easterly or south-easterly courses. Only the Subarnarekha flows almost to the south along the western border and receives west and south- west flowing tributaries. Subarnarekha, Damador and Kasai rivers are the perennial rivers. Most rivers and rivulets are non- perennial and subject to occasional flash flood. The river beds are usually covered with gravels and sands. Their banks are abrupt and broken into deep gullies. None of the rivers are navigable.
. KASAI OR KANSABATI RIVER Kasai or Kanshabati River is by far the most important river in Purulia district draining more than three- fifth of the district. The river originates from Jabarban peak on the Ghoramarapahar. From Begunkudar (23°2′ N & 86°04' E) the Kasai river takes a turn towards east and after flowing for about 30 km, it flows towards south east. A number of non-perennial right bank tributaries of Kasai descend down the northern face of the Baghmundi hills. From west to east the most important of them are Goura Nala, Chaga Nala and Bandhu Nala. Important left bank tributaries of Kasai are Patloi Nala and the Kumari River.
. KUMARI RIVER
The Kumari river (here the source as it is named) draining the southern part of the district is the most important tributary of the Kasai river. It originates from the eastern face of the Baghmundi uplands. The river receives numerous small right bank tributaries from the Dalma range of Jharkhand. Most important of them are Nangasai Nala, Jam Nala (combined waters of Kumir Nala, Totko Nala and Jamuna Nala). In contrast the left bank tributaries are few. Two important tributaries of them are the Jore Nala and the Chaka Nala.
. DARAKESHWER OR DHALKISHOR RIVER
Darakeshwer or Dhalkishor River drains a small area in the northeastern part of the district. Itoriginates from the badlands to the east of the Bagali rail station on the Asansol - Puruilia section and flows in an easterly course and leaves the district a few kms south east of Kashipur town. It‘s left bank tributaries are the Beko Nala and Dangra Nala. The right bank tributaries of the river are the Futuri Nala, Dudhbariya Nala and Arkusa Nala. All the tributaries are non-perennial. SUBARNAREKHA RIVER The Subarnarekha River forms the western boundary of the Purulia district. It‘s source is in the Ranchi Plateau of Jharkhand. The left bank tributaries of Subarnarekha are Danka Garha Nala, Sapahi Nala, Saida Nala, Khelarimoria Nala, Karra Nala, Sobha Nala and the Sanka Nala.
DAMODAR RIVER The Damodar River forms the northern boundary of the district. The Panchet Hill dam has been constructed on the Damodar, 5 kms above the confluence with its main tributary Barakar. One of the right bank tributaries of Damodar is Gobai or Gowai Nadi. Numerous short non-perennial tributaries of Goabai are Mas Jhar, Chapai Nala, Parga Nala, Jaria Nala, Falari Jhar , Khukraghata Nala , Taragunia Nala and Harai Nala. Gullies have formed along the banks of all these streams. The middle and lower

portions of the Gobai are fully sand choked. The varying underlying geological structure, surface morphometry and stage of evolution together have given rise to a variety of drainage and channel patterns. The most common of these is the dendritic pattern, which is found all over the erosional plain. The alignments of the tributaries and sub tributaries of river Kumari, Darakeswar and Kasai form dendritic pattern. On the fringes of the plateau proper with broadly identical slope, the network of sub tributaries of Kasai and Subarnarekha have formed parallel drainage pattern. Radial Drainage pattern is found along the summits of the hills. The catchments of Kangsabati, Darakeswar and Subarnarekha taken together account for about 75 percent of the area. However, water available for irrigation from these rivers covers only 5 percent of the total area. From the map (MAP No.9) showing the distribution of drainage density, it is found that the density of drainage is very high (>2km/sq.km.)In Arsa and Bagmundi blocks and high (l.5 - 2.0 km/sq.km.) in Bamundi, Arsa, Jhalda I & II. In the northern part of Arsa, southern part of Jhalda I & II, western part of Bagmundi and Balarampur the density of drainage is medium (1.0 - 1.5 km /sq.km.). The drainage density is low. The district has numerous small storage pools called bandhs of which the most noticeable example is the Sahib -bandh at Purulia. The lake is the chief source of drinking water for the western half of the town. Similar large bandhs are two Rani Bandhs at Pandra in Jaipur block, Shyambandh at Cheliamaand Bari bandh at Babirdihin Kasipur block. Map No. 13 DRAINAGE NETWORK MAP OF PURULIA DISTRICT

The common hydrological regime is defined by the tropical monsoon climate with alternating dry and wet seasons. Mid-June to mid-September is the rainy season in which 90 percent of the rainfall occurs. The spatiality of rain is also controlled by the orientation of the axis of monsoon trough. Naturally, the base flow is either little or almost lacking. The annual peak flow occurs during the highest monsoon downpour. So, the flood ability, transportability, competency and erosive power of thestreams attain their maxima at that time. The network of channel is growing in a random fashion. All these aspects influence the rate of soil erosion in the district in a great way. Table 19: Drainage system with description of main rivers

(ii) Annual Deposition of River Bed Minerals Sand is naturally occurring as granular material composed of finely divided rock and mineral particles between 115 µ to 4.75 mm in diameter (IS 383-1970). Sand is formed due to weathering of rocks due to mechanical forces. It is also felt that the greater use of substitute material (manufactured sand, artificial

sand etc.) and construction technology and sustainable use of the resource could drastically reduce adverse impact of mining on the environment. The broad principle on which any sustainable sand mining guidelines or policy can be based is that river or natural resources must be utilized for the benefit of the present and future generation, so river resources should be prudently managed and developed. In Purulia district of West Bengal, sands and gravel deposits occur as minor minerals. Evaluation based on following parameters: a) Geomorphological studies i.

DISTRICT SURVEY REPORT, PURULIA DISTRICT, WEST BENGAL iii. General Profile of River/Stream If rivers are always straight i.e., if rivers follow straight course the meaning of slope becomes value less, but if the river is curvy and follows a sinusoidal pattern (as is usually the case, at least to some extent), then we have to measure the horizontal distance along the sinuous projection of the course of the river on a horizontal plane. The slope can be measured in feet per mile or some metric units like meters per kilometers. Recalling some trigonometry, we might recognize the tangent of a slope angle although measuring the slope of a river is not an easy matter. The slope of the rivers Kansabati, Dwarakeswar, Damodar, Subarnarekha & Kumari of Purulia district, in this case, has been measured following the method of Digital Elevation Model (DEM). To reach the targeted approach, here contour lines are digitized from topographic map using a scale of 1:8000; from this map few contours are also digitized in flat areas. Spot heights are also digitized. From this height data, contour interpolation is completed in ArcGIS approach. This slope map is exported to ERDAS for further processing. The slope map is classified to 0-15 degree or more than 15 degree.

Detailed Sedimentation Study Not all channels form sediment and not all rivers transport sediment. Some have been carved into bedrock, usually in headwater reaches of streams located high in the mountains. Sediment transport knowledge is important in river restoration, ecosystem protection, navigation, watershed studies and reservoir management. Bed load represents the lower portion of sediment load in natural rivers. Fluvial sediment load materials are transported by rivers. Geological erosion and soil erosion are the two basic terms usually used to describe the erosion processes. A third term used in this DSR is water course erosion which is predominately stream bank or channel erosion and in some cases is a part of both the geological and soil erosion processes. Geological erosion is the erosion that has scarred the earth's surface creating mountains, chasms, flood plains, deserts, and deltas under natural or relatively undisturbed conditions. Different types of landscapes & geomorphological sculptures are also the outcome of geological erosional activities. Geological Erosion is caused by volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, landslides, mudflows (i.e., Lahar) and gulling and has to a varying degree been influenced by man's activities and may require partial control by man. Soil Erosion is more closely associated with agricultural land because by definition soil is the unconsolidated mineral or organic material that will support plant growth. Soil particles located on the surface of agricultural lands, forest lands, or grazing lands are detached by rainfall or eroded away by surface runoff. This may take place in the form of sheet erosion with at in sheet of water flowing down a gentle upland slope. Rill erosion is another form with runoff occurring in well-defined yet small incisions in the land surface. Gully erosion is the dissection of the soil surface with a deep cut in the land channel formed below an uncut reach thus creating a sudden break in surface slope. Water Course Erosion is the erosion of a stream channel's bank and bed caused by flowing water. A river channel or water course transports or carries sediment that originates from surface runoff in the upland reaches by the erosion processes previously described of geological or soil Erosion. The water course's ability to transport its sediment load is dependent on channel velocity or energy. If the upland sediment inflow to the river channel or water course is low, then there is unspent energy which will pick up or erode the bank and bed of the channel. A meander pattern may develop with erosive forces active on the bank and bed of the channel on the outside or concave bends in the water course meander. The amount and size of sediment moving through a river channel are determined by three fundamental controls: Competence, capacity and sediment supply. Competence: The competence of a river or stream refers to the largest particle that a river can transport. Capacity: The capacity of a river is the total amount of sediment a river is able to transport. Sediment supply: Sediment supply is a fundamental boundary condition controlling river channel dynamics. In a very broad sense, channel patterns and properties evolve downstream through a series of morphologic transitions, which are frequently described as basin-scale responses to variations in water and sediment supply The sediment load of a river is transported in various ways although these distinctions are to some extent arbitrary and not always very practical in the sense that not all of the components can be separated in practice: Dissolved load Suspended load

DISTRICT SURVEY REPORT, PURULIA DISTRICT, WEST BENGAL
Intermittent suspension (saltation) load Wash load Bedload Dissolved Load: It is the portion of a stream's total sediment load that is carried in solution, especially ions from chemical weathering. It is a major contributor to the total amount of material removed from a river's drainage basin, along with suspended load and bed load. Suspended load: It is the portion of the sediment that is carried by a fluid flow which settles slowly enough such that it almost never touches the bed. It is maintained in suspension by the turbulence in the flowing water and consists of particles generally of the fine sand, silt and clay size Saltation Load: A type of sediment transport in water in which particles are moved forward in short, abrupt leaps. This process is intermediate between suspension and traction. Wash load: It is the portion of sediment that is carried by a fluid flow, usually in a river, such that it always remains close the free surface. It is in near-permanent suspension and is transported without deposition, essentially passing straight through the stream. Although wash load is part of the suspended- sediment load it is useful here to make a distinction. Unlike most suspended-sediment load, wash load does not rely on the force of mechanical turbulence generated by flowing water to keep it in suspension. It is so fine (in the clay range) that it is kept in suspension by thermal molecular agitation (sometimes known as Brownian motion). Bed load: The term bed load or bed load describes particles in a flowing fluid (usually water) that are transported along the bed. Bed load is complementary to suspended load and wash load. Bed load moves by rolling, sliding, and/or saltating (hopping). Bed material: The mixture of sediments that compose stream bed is called bed material. Bed material is stationary, but particle size is important to sediment transport because, as energy level of a stream increases, some bed- material particles are mobilized and become part of the bed load or suspended load. In this report, composition of bed material is defined by particle-size distribution. Suspended Sediment Material: Usually small particles, suspended by turbulence of the flow or existing as colloids, and transported at about the same downstream velocity as the flowing water. Suspended sediment is distributed at all depths in flowing water. In this report, suspended sediment is expressed as concentration in mg/l. Suspended-sediment load: In this report, annual suspended-sediment load is expressed in tonnes Suspended- sediment discharge: A computed value of the quantity (weight) of suspended sediment per unit time also referred to as suspended-sediment transport rate. Total sediment load: The sum of bed load and suspended sediment load is together called total sediment load. In this report, total sediment load is expressed in tones. Total sediment discharge: The sum of bed load discharge and suspended-sediment discharge.

Figure. 1 Modes of Sediment Transport in Rivers
When a graph is plotted with the river bed elevation on the vertical axis and the upstream distance on the horizontal axis, a smooth curve may pass through the points. The result is called the Longitudinal Profile or Long profile of the river. The longitudinal profiles of most rivers are concave upward. The reason is not difficult to understand. In the downstream direction, one tributary after another joins the river, each adding discharge. As the river grows larger, the ratio of cross-sectional area to wetted perimeter increases. Because the slope of the river depends, in large part, on the relative magnitude of the down slope driving force of gravity, which is affected by the whole volume of the river, and the up slope resisting force of friction, which is affected by the area of the riverbed, the slope decreases downstream. A longitudinal profile should extend through a reach extending from upstream of the project area to downstream of the project area. Profile points should be surveyed in the thalweg and be detailed enough to illustrate the channel morphology (riffle-pool sequences). The base level of a river is the elevation of water surface of the water body, along the river course, into which the river flows. Let us think about what happens to the river as its base level changes. The concept to keep mind is that the river has some equilibrium longitudinal profile, in the sense that if conditions of precipitation, sediment supply, and base level remain constant the longitudinal profile stays the same. If a different set of conditions is imposed upon the river, the river adjusts its longitudinal profile accordingly towards a new equilibrium.

MAP NO. 16 ELAVATION & LONGITUDINAL PROFILE MAP OF PURULIA DISTRICT
If base level rises, some of the sediments that are carried along by the river towards the river mouth are deposited along the way to raise the river bed, thereby establishing a new equilibrium longitudinal profile. If base level falls, the river erodes its bed to adjust towards a new, lower equilibrium profile. There‘s more to be said, however, about what happens as the river erodes its bed as a consequence of a fall in base level. The erosion does not happen uniformly everywhere, all at the same time, but by upstream propagation of a point where the channel slope changes from steeper downstream of the point to less steep upstream of the point. The point of change in slope is called a Knick point. Sediment Transport Rate: The rate at which sediment is moved past a cross section of the flow is called either the sediment transport rate or the sediment discharge. It can be measured in mass per unit time, or in weight per unit time, or in volume per unittime. Sediment Discharge formulae: It means the mass of sedimentary material, both particulate and dissolved, that passes across a given flow-transverse cross section of a given flow in unit time. Usually written ‘qs’. The Sediment Yield: The sediment yield is the sediment discharge divided by the total drainage area of the river upstream of the cross section at which the sediment discharge is measured or estimated. The sediment yield measures the rate, per unit area, at which sediment is removed from the watershed. It is important in studies of the long-term evolution of landscapes drained by rivers.

DISTRICT SURVEY REPORT, PURULIA DISTRICT, WEST BENGAL v. Replenishment Replenishment defines rejuvenation of riverbed sand deposition phenomena. The word replenishment is the fulcrum of riverbed sedimentation under different depositional environmental conditions especially during rainy seasons. The rate of gross or absolute silt production (erosion) in the watershed and the ability of the, stream system to transport the eroded material in a river have the direct relation with the quantity of sediment delivered into a river. The rate of gross erosion is dependent upon many physical factors like climatic conditions, nature of soil, slope of the area, topography and the land use. Hydro-physical conditions of the watershed govern the capability of transporting the eroded material. It has been observed that the average rate of sediment production decreases as the size of drainage area increases and the larger watershed, the lesser is the variation between the rates. The larger watershed presents more opportunity for deposition of silt during its traverse from the point of production. The watershed with maximum land use class of forest, generate very low rate of production unless the forests are degraded or open forest. The cultivated watersheds with unscientific farming produce very high rate of silt production. The total amount of eroded material, which reaches a particular hydraulic control point, is termed as sediment yield. The rotational mining is being adopted to facilitate the replenishment of the excavated pits during rainy season. Thus, the mineable area is to be divided in two blocks i.e., the upstream block and the downstream block. The mining of these blocks is suggested on rotation basis in such a way that pit of previous year mining will act as depository for the monsoon season. Sand is extracted from the said lot during one year; more than the extracted quantity of the same are automatically replenished by rainfall in the monsoon by the river/nallah itself on account of its flow and velocity. For sustainability of river sand mining, it is necessary that the mine pits formed as a result of sand excavation are refilled with sand by natural process of replenishment in a reasonable period of time so that the area is again available for mining. The rate of excavation should be decided in accordance with the rate of replenishment which is the rate at which sand/gravel is deposited on the river flood plain by the river during monsoon season. However, determination of site- specific rate of replenishment is quite difficult as it is dependent on several factors such as geology and topography of the catchment area of the river, breadth of the flood plain, rainfall in that particular year (which is quite variable and not very much predictable much in advance) etc. Dandy-Bolton formula is generally used to calculate the sediment yield. But it is to be kept in mind that to prepare the mining plans of the mines, the factor of annual replenishment is to be taken into consideration while calculating the mineral reserves. It has also been observed that during flooding, all the pits replenish with sand. Hence, mined out areas in the pre- monsoon season will be completely replenished with sand during monsoon. Therefore, it has been assumed that the pits will be replenished after each monsoon. The main rivers are Kangsabati, Damodar, Dwarakeswar and Kumari. Field data collection: Field survey for sand replenishment data have been carried out during April-May 2019 for pre-monsoon and during November-December for all the river ghats on continuous basis for post monsoon period. However, the non-operational areas were covered through traverses. In both the cases, relative elevation levels were captured through GPS/DGPS. Thickness of the sand bars was measured through sectional profiles. In few instances, sieve analysis of the sands was carried out to derive the size frequency analysis.
Selection of study profiles: Study profiles are selected based on the occurrence of the sand bars in the channel profiles. Aerial extents of each of the profiles are mapped from satellite imageries. Frequency distribution did while selection of the ground trothing of the blocks.

Again the sediment load estimation is not dependent variable of the imaginary district boundary, but it largely depends upon the aerial extents of the catchment areas, which crossed the district and state boundaries. Purulia Jharkhand interstate boundary is passing through Subarnarekha River. As per guideline 300 m safety zone / buffer zone should be maintained in case of inter-state boundary as a result we cannot propose any sand blocks over that area of Subarnarekha river of Purulia district.

Considering the quantum of sand accumulated in the year during monsoon, a replenishment rate for the year comes about 85%. vi. Total Potential of Minor Mineral In The River Bed The total potential of minor mineral in the river bed is 7627091.86 cubic meter. (Refer Table No. 25&26)
b. Geological Studies
i. Lithology of Catchment Area Kansabati: lithological units are Calc-granulite, Calc-Schist, Crystalline Limestone, Metamorphosed basicvolcanic, and Granite & Mica schist. Kumari: Granite, Amphibolite, Hornblende Schist, Basic volcanic and Mica schist. Damodar: Granite, Granite – gneiss, Mica Schist. Dwarakeswar: Granite, Granite – gneiss, Mica Schist.
ii. Tectonics and structural behavior of rocks In the area Baradih and Bhurudih villages in and around Balarampur and Barabazar of Purulia district, swarms of mini and micro lineaments which are present and are the manifestation of concealed fractures and foliations lying within the metamorpites. This type of lineaments are called Riedel type of Katz (1967 b) which are generally produced due to shearing effect of major faults or faults couple having strike E-W. The area of investigation has suffered poly phase deformational episodes of folding and crumpling of schistosity.The basement rocks of the area are highly punctured due to pervasive nature of hidden strain. The stalwart action of deformation has produced schism within the different bedding planes of the disposed rock units of the studied area. Amount of dip of foliation greater than 550 towards North- East direction. A prominent shear zone is known to occur trending almost E-W and passing through the south of Balarampur and termed as South Purulia Shear Zone (SPSZ), exhibiting features indicative of a brittle-ductile deformational regime (Bhattacharya, 1989; Dasgupta, 2004). Evidences of shear forces

acted along some E-W trending nearly vertical weak planes during the third tectonic period (Geological quadrangle map, 73 I, 1948) are noticeable in region of southern Purulia shear zone (SPSZ). CGGC was thrusted towards south over IOG (Katti et. al., 2010). In this area such structural elements are mainly represented by some shear-joints and fractures in the granitic rocks, pegmatites, quartz veins and metasediments. These shear joints, fractures and faults strike E-W, in general, with 60º to nearly vertical dips (Geological quadrangle map, 73/ I, 1948).
c. Climatic Factors
i. Intensity of rainfall The intensity of rainfall due to depressions sometimes becomes very great and may cause enhanced soil erosion the district. During winter, western disturbances generally cause light rainfall. This does not cause any major soil erosion problem. During hot weather season of March to May, rainfall is caused by the nor’ westers or Kalbaisakhi. Kalbaishakhi generally bring sudden rainfall with great intensities. Besides, the season in which it occurs is characterized by the presence of bare soil mostly devoid of vegetation. Therefore, it causes considerable amount of soil erosion.
ii. Climate Zone Purulia district enjoys the tropical monsoon type of climate characterized by hot wet summer and cool dry winter. There is a relatively short wet period preceded by a period of comparatively dry spells of long duration. iii. Temperature Variation The year may be divided into four seasons. The cool weather commences in the later part of November and lasts until the middle of February. During these months the prevailing winds are from the north and northeast. This is followed by the hot and dry season which extends up to May. The weather becomes increasingly hot during the day, though the night remains fairly cool. The daily range of temperature is often tempered by Nor ‘westers which generally appears in the evening. The south west monsoon season sets in about the middle of June and continues up to the end of September. October & the first half of November, constitute the post monsoon season.

9. OVERVIEW OF MINING ACTIVITIES IN THEDISTRICT a) GENERAL OVER VIEW To prepare the DSR of Purulia district of West Bengal, geological studies along with structural studies in the quest for knowing more and more pertaining to tectonic set up of this regime, suitability for river bed sand mining and time of deposition of different types of minerals are also important. The common hydrological regime plays a pivotal role for deposition of sand & other minor minerals and itis defined by the tropical monsoon climate with alternating dry & wet seasons. Purulia, in this regard, gives a best fit result. The spatiality of rain is controlled by the orientation of the axis of monsoon trough. River bed sand mining or sand mining adjacent to a river or stream has a direct impact on the physical characteristics of the stream such as channel geometry, bed elevation, substratum composition & stability, in-stream roughness of the bed, pro velocity, discharge capacity, sediment transport capacity, turbidity, temperature etc. Alteration or modification of the said attributes may cause hazardous impact on ecological equilibrium of riverine regime. b) EXISTING MINING LEASES OF THE DISTRICT WITH LOCATION, AREA, PERIOD FOR EACH MINOR MINERAL

11. TRANSPORT (RAILWAYS, ROAD) Emphasize on local transport infrastructure from mineral transport point of view Purulia district is well connected with other cities and towns of West Bengal and neighborhood states by road and rail transport. RAIL The District is served by three Rail connections provided by the South Eastern Railways. One line runs from Jharkhand in the South through the district up to Asansol passing through Adra division. Another line runs between Bankura and Dhanbad also via the Adra Division. The third line connects Purulia with Jharkhand major cities and towns like Ranchi, Tatanagar, Patna, Howrah, Dhanbad, Lucknow, Asansol, Bhubaneswar, Puri, Durgapur, Mumbai, Chennai and Delhi are now well connected with this district by railways. The Railway Divisional Headquarter Adra railway division, which is one of the major rail divisions of South Eastern Railway, is situated on the North - East part of Purulia district. ROAD The road transport is another important transportation medium of Purulia. The road transport is adequate in terms of bus availability and goods flow.NH-18 (NH -32) connects this district with Jamshedpur, Bokaro, Chas and Dhanbad. National Highway 60A connects Purulia with State Highway- 9 at Bankura and subsequently to NH-2 at Durgapur. State Highway - 5 also plays an important role in district‗s transport network as it connects the towns like Raghunathpur, Adra, Santaldih and Neturia to NH-2 at Neamatpur and Asansol.Purulia has excellent road connectivity with Raniganj- Asansol industrial belt. South Bengal State Transport Corporation runs 4 buses from Purulia to Kolkata via StateHighway-5 thus connecting towns and cities like Raghunathpur, Adra, Neturia to the industrial belt of Asansol, Raniganj, Durgapur and Burdwan. There are also many private bus operators on this route. Both rail & road transport or logistics system enhance the mineral transport system.

12. SUMMARY The purpose of the District Survey Report (DSR) is ―Identification of areas of aggradation or deposition where mining can be allowed; and identification of areas of erosion and proximity to infrastructural structures and installations where mining should be prohibited and calculation of annual rate of replenishment and allowing time for replenishment after mining in that area‖. The District Survey report (DSR) will contain mainly data published and endorsed by various departments and websites about Geology of the area, Mineral wealth narrates the details of rivers, details of Lease and Mining activity in the District along with Sand mining and revenue of minerals. This report also contains details of Forest, Rivers, Soil, Agriculture, Road, Transportation and climate etc. The main minor mineral of the district i.e., sand will be replenished annually and available for excavation in the next post- monsoon season. Additional areas may be further assessed on the basis of various ecological, environmental, social considerations. It can be further studied as potential area for mining and revenue generation. There is a gap of feeling which might be attributed to the factors of immediate benefit as the very question of subsistence is involved particularly when the majority of the people in Purulia, are below poverty line. Exploitation and not extinction should be the way of life. If that be the case the forest resources which are national wealth should be preserved in such a way that they are exploited and not extinct. Else danger is inherent in expressing their displeasure. The signs of danger are apparent when we see erosion of soils due to indiscriminate felling of trees. There is uneven rainfall. It carries sands which turn into deposits causing heavy damage to fertile lands which are going to be scarce particularly when the population is increasing rapidly in geometrical progression.
