SIROHI –LUNGHAR CHROMITE MINES SRPL 4 2.3 Figure 1.1: Mine Location Map Toposheet SIROHI –LUNGHAR CHROMITE MINES SRPL 5 2.4 GEOLOGY AND RESERVE 2.4.1 Geology The major part of the area is covered with ultramafics of ophiolites suite comprising dunite, harzburgite, serpentinised harzburgite, pyroxinites and chromite. The litho units runs in north-south to north north-est- south-south west direction. Sporadic pots and pockets of massive nodular spotted and disseminated chromite ore present within the ultramafics. All the varieties of chromite ore occur together in the host rock of serpentinised harzburgites. The chromite occurrence in the area is in the form of pods and lenses being found in the horzburgites and dunites which have undergone various degree of serpentinisation. The podiform deposits within ultramafics area erratic in distribution pattern and their depth persistence is irregular but with sharp contact with host rocks. The chromite mineralization in the form of pods, pockets and lenses is confined to an area measuring 1000m long and 600 m wide in the phangari hill as exposed on the surface. Broadly, three different modes of occurances of ore found, as follows: Massive ore associated with harzburgite in shape of pods and angular blocks; Nodular ore; and Friable and disseminated ore. Massive ore are found in the mid slope and on the ridge of Phangrai in association with minor nodular and disseminated ore. Nodular and friable ore occurs on the top of the hill ridge as well as the mid slopes. The initial geological exploration study reveals that Hard Lumpy and Massive Ore (HLMO) trending NNE-SSW over a strike length of 100m close with an average width of 5-7 m. HLMO of different sizes with perfect orientation, indicates that the ore may continue for few meters in depth ward direction and similar patches can be traced out elsewhere within or outside the area.

Pamri Department of Cultural and Creative Studies, North Eastern Hill University (NEHU), Shillong, Meghalaya, India Abstract: Tangkhul is one of the Naga tribes residing in Ukhrul District of Manipur, in the North-Eastern part of India. Like any other tribe, the Tangkhuls have their own culture and traditions which set them apart from other neighbouring tribes. Their rich cultural heritage is narrated through folklore. One in particular is the Tangkhul folksong which has become a fundamental source of the history of the Tangkhuls since they had no tradition of written documentation from their early days. Communications in the form of songs, words, gestures and the like remain the bearer of their culture and customs for the continuing generations. In this paper some of the Hao laa in context to the theme of ‘love’ are studied and analyzed to bring out certain social significance. I. INTRODUCTION which now lie in the south-eastern part of the Xinjiang province.2 Music and song play a significant role in the different stages of human life starting from childhood to adolescence till death and these evolve around the different activities of human life.

S. C. KHUMAN3 & 4 FRANKY VARAH 1University School of Environment Management, GGSIP University, New Delhi 2Department of Anthropology, Delhi University, Delhi 3School of Inter-Disciplinary and Trans-Disciplinary Studies, Indira Gandhi National Open University, New Delhi. 4Department of Environmental Studies, Bhaskaracharya College of Applied Science, Delhi University, New Delhi Abstract: Traditional communities in various parts of the world are facing various challenges owing to shrinking per capita land availability and growing market economy. This has led to shift in land use in which polyculture of variety of traditional crops are being slowly replaced by market driven monoculture system of cultivation to meet the demands to market on one side and maximization of production on the other side. As a result, the traditional crops in homegarden are being threatened in many areas. A study on conservation of tradition crops in homegarden in Tangkhul community in Ukhrul District of Manipur, India was carried out to assess the impact of such change in terms of crop species and their socioecological significance. A total of 73 plant species of economic, social and cultural values belonging to 27 families were recorded in homegardens. Result of this study shows that Tangkhul traditional community has vast indigenous knowledge on conservation of biodiversity in limited homegarden sites. Understanding traditional knowledge concerning HGs and how this form the knowledge for choice of species across the local community could help developing better strategies for sustainable management of traditional homegarden.

  • Mining Without Consent
    ISSN (Online) - 2349-8846 Mining Without Consent Chromite Mining in Manipur FRANKY VARAH Vol. 49, Issue No. 25, 21 Jun, 2014 Franky Varah ([email protected]) is a doctoral scholar at the Centre for Studies in Science Policy, Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi. The recent identification of chromite deposits in two districts of Manipur, Ukhrul and Chandel, has led the government to grant mining clearances disregarding constitutional provisions. While environmental degradation and tribal displacement due to chromite mining in Odisha is well documented, the administration is yet to learn from Odisha’s mistakes. Chromite is a versatile element that is used in metallurgical, refractory, chemical and non- ferrous alloy industries. Owing to its multiple uses, chromite is a valuable and strategic raw material. Most of the chromite resources in the world are located in South Africa, that contributes to more than 50% of the world-trade in chromite (Pariser: 2013), and Kazakhstan. In India, more than 93% of chromite deposits are located in Odisha, mainly in the Sukinda valley in Cuttack and Jajpur districts (IBM: 2012). The world production of chromite increased from 23.5 million tonnes in 2009 to 30 million tonnes in 2010 (IBM: 2012). The production of chromite from Indian mines registered a 24% increase in 2010-11 compared to 2009-10 (IBM: 2012). India accounts for 17% of the world production of chromite, making it a significant exporter of the mineral (USGS: 2011). The Indian Bureau of Mines 2013 report indicated that Manipur has 6.66 MT (3% of total chromite reserves in India) chromite resources of ophiolite belt in Ukhrul (5.5 MT) and Chandel (1.1 MT) districts (IBM: 2013).
