Shivnath River originates from Panabaras Hill, 624 metres (2,047 ft) above sea level in the Ambagarh Chowki division of Rajnandgaon district of Chhhattisgarh. The river flows in the north-east direction for 300 km. from its source and joins the Mahanadi River near the town Shivrinarayan. The Shivnath River is the longest tributary of Mahanadi River, which it joins in Khargahni in Bilaspur district in Chhattisgarh. The maximum and minimum RL with the lease area is 223m in west direction and 217m in east direction. The average width of the notified area of the quarry area is 150m and length is about 332m. The Khasra plan (Plate-3) and Key plan (Plate 1) of the area showing the location of the mine in Google earth is enclosed as plate no 6 and photographs of the area in Plate no 7 respectively. Geology of the area Regional Geology:- Bilaspur district is situated in the north northwestern part of Chhattisgarh state and is covered in Survey of India Degree sheet nos. 64 E, 64F, 64 J and 64 K between Latitude 21 0 35’ : 21 0 23’ and Longitude 81 0 27’ : 82 0 29’ 58”. The district is bounded by Shahdol and Koriya districts in the north, Korba and Janjgir districts in east, Raipur and Durg district in the south Kawardha and Mandla district in the west. Bilaspur is the district headquarter and Mungeli, Takhatpur, Pendra, Sakola, Kota, Ratanpur are some of the major towns. The katni banch of South Eastern Railway passes from North to south to connect Bilaspur and Raipur in the south and Anuppur in the north. It connects Champa in the east. All the important places within the district are well connected by a network of state highways and all weathered roads. Seonath River flows easterly in the southern most part of the district, Arpa, Kurung, Rahon, Ghongha, Son, Tesua etc., are important tributaries of Seonath draining from west and north to it. The drainage pattern in general is subparallel with medium density. Physiographically the district can be divided into vally fill denudational plateau, denudational pediment/ pediplain and high level plateaux. The vally fills occur in the southern most part. They range in elevation from 260m to 275m. High level plateaux are exposed in the eastern and western parts, ranging in elevation from 539m to 730m in the east and attain a maximum elevation of 1006m in the west. 4 | P a g e QUARRY PLAN OF KUKURDIKALA (A) SAND MINE AGE SUPERGROUP GROUP STRATIGRAPHIC LITHOLOGY STATUS Cainozoic Alluvium Laterite Sandy loam, silty sand, coarse medium laterite Upper Deccan Trap Basalt Flow Cretaceous to Eocene Cretaceous Lameta Arkosic Sandstone, Limestone, Clay.

They include granites, gneissesand older metamorphic of precambarian age, rocks and Chhattisgarh supergroup of upper Proterozoic age, Gondwanas of Permian age, Lametas of Upper Cretaceous age. Deccan trap of upper Creataceous to Eocene age and laterite (with bauxite) of cainozoic age comprises of unclassified granites and granite gneisses, with enclaves of older metamorphic- phyllites, quartzites, schists and dolomitic marble. This group is exposed in northern part of the area. The Chhattisgarh Supergroup of rocks occurring in the south unconformably overlie the Precambarian basement. The Chhattisgarh Supergroup is divisible into Chandarpur and Raipur groups. The Chandrapur group comprises sandstone and conglomerate. Unclassified Raipur Group comprising of shale and limestone occurs in the central and south central part, whereas in the south- eastern part this Group is represented by the rocks of Gunderdehi Formation, Chandi Formation is represented by grey shale, and limestone with intrafromational conglomerate. Chandi formation is comprised of grey, hardand compact 6 | P a g e QUARRY PLAN OF KUKURDIKALA (A) SAND MINE shale and pick Limestone. Tarenga formation comprises of clay, chert, shale, red calc- aggillaceous Limestone. Mohtara Formation is represented by grey argillaceous Limestone. Gondwana Supergroup is represented by the rocks of Talchir formation and Barakar Formation of Lower Permian age. Talchir Formation occupies the northern most part of the district and is composed of buff and khaki green shale with splintery fragments, Grayish white, fine to medium grained sandstone and boulder bed that comprises of subangular clasts of quartzite and gneiss in grayish, fine to medium grained matrix. Barakar formation consist of grayis white, fine to coarse grained, cross bedded massive sandstone, grey shale, blackish grey carbonaceous shale, light yellow to creamy white clay with coal seams it occurs in the northern most part of the district. Lameta Formation is exposed in the NW part of the district at the foothill of Amarkantak Plateau. It comprises ash grey coloured cherty/ siliceous limestone and greenish feldspathic (arkosic) sandstone with very thin bands of red clay- variegated in nature. Deccan trap of upper cretaceous to Eocene age is exposed in west and nort western parts of the district overlying the Lametas. The Basalt flows are dark grey, fine to medium grained, hard and compact. Laterite and Bauxitic Laterite of Cainozoic age are observed on basalts in the west and north western part of the district. The development of the reddish brown, hard and compact lateritic profile is due to weathering of the trap rocks which subsequently has resulted in the formation of bauxite zones. The Chhattisgarh and Gondwana Supergroup of rocks show bedding trending in the NNE- SSw to NNW-SSE direction with occasional variation to E-W. these have low to moderate southerly and northerly dips varying from 3 0 to 40 0 . The foliation planes in the gnissic rocks also show trend of E-W, NE-SW, NW- SE, dipping northerly or southerly, with the dip varying from 35 0 to 83 0.
