The NH-65 which connects district H.Q. with and NH-89 connecting it with and are passing through the district. It is also connected with , Jodhpur and Bikaner through broad gauge railway line. It is oval in shape. The district forms a part of great and a large part of it is covered by wind blown sand. The district boundary is shared by seven of Rajasthan viz.-Jaipur, Ajmer, Pali, Jodhpur, Bikaner, Churu and . It falls in and administratively divided into four sub divisional offices viz. , Nagaur, Merta, and . Nagaur, Merta, , Ladnun, Didwana, Nawa, , , Parbatsar and Khimsar are the ten tehsil head quaters of the district.

Nagaur district is well known in the world over owing to the presence of Makrana . Marble occurring in the vicinity of Makrana town is so famous that 'Makrana' has become the synonymous of marbel. It has been worked entensively from time immemorial. Word famous Taj Mahal of : Victoria Memorial, : Delwara at and Ranakpur Temple in Pali & other famous monuments of excellent architechural art and beauty are constructed of Makrana marbel.

CHAPTER 2 Over view of Mining Activity in the District

MINERAL OCCURRENCES

It is the which has brought the Nagaur district on mineral map of the world. Other than the marble, of varying grades. i.e. SMS grade, cement grade and chemical grade: tungsten, gypsum, lignite, halite with potash, clay etc. are important mineral resources of district. Mineral wise and areawise brief description of exploration, reserves and current status of blocks is given as below:

LIMESTONE

Limestone occuring in the Nagaur district belongs to Group of Supergroup. It is intermitantly exposed over a length of 150 kms in three prominent belts. The first major and important belt is passing through Bilara, Heera, Keria, Hari Singh, Bhawanda, Tadas, Tankla, Manakpur, Bher, Madpura-Gujron Ki Dhani, Chawandia and Tantwas. The second one is passing through , Rol-Quazia, Gangwana, Surjniyawas Somna and Deh. The third belt which is comparatively smaller is located between Jayal and Katothi. The limestone occurring in these three belts exhibit great variation in physical, chemical and textural attributes. In general limestone beds are horizontally to sub horizontally disposed with some minor changes, locally at places. There is gradational change from limestone to dolomite through magnesium limestone, dolomitic limestone and calcitic dolomite. At number of places it also exhibits extensive development of biohermal, nonphosphatic stromatolites.the systematic exploration work for lime stone was initiated by department in 1984 except some prilimaery prospecting carried in 1961-64 near Rol Quazian

MARBLE: Since long Makrana in tehsil Parabatsar of Nagaur district is known in the world for the production of quality marble. The marble deposit extends over a strike length of about 12 Kms. having a width of 1.6 Km., located in the west of Makrana town. It is trending NNE-SSW with steep dips from 50 to 70° towards ESE. In this belt there are six parallel to sub-parallel bands of marble having 2 to12 mts.width, occurring between Borawad and Makrana. In the main Makrana belt 50 M.T. reserves of marble have been estimated. On the basis of physical characters like colour, pattern, grain size etc. Makrana marble belt has been divided into 14 blocks. Block wise description as follows :

S. No. Name of Block Type of marble Grain size Grade

1 Bhermala Pink, White, Fine I & II

Adanga

2 Rawat Dungri Adanga - II

3 Kala-Nada Talab Dark Pink Coarse I of II

14

4 Dhobi Dungri Adanga Coarse III

5 Kurmari Nadi Adanga Coarse III

6 Ulodi Adanga pink Coarse III

7 Chaurasa White fine I

8 Range Bhot Adanga - II

9 Chak Dungri Adanga - II

10 Pink Range Light pink - -

11 Paharkuan Range White adanga - -

12 Modi Dungari Range Adanga - II

13 Kala Dungri Range Adanga - II

14 Boarwad Range - Coarse II

Out of these 14 blocks, marble produced from Chausara block is white in colour and of best quality. In general, Makrana marble is coarse grained in texture but some fine grained verities are also available in various shades. The dark streaks in some white and pink are due to local bands of graphitic nature derived from the original limestone. Sometimes it gives a beautiful appearance (Adanga marble) to the finished product which is in great demand especially for exterior use.

15

In the main Makrana belt marble quarries has gone so deep that now it is practically unmanageable for mining point of view. Department of Mines & Geology has carried out detailed exploration work to prove the subsurface continuity of the Makrana marble belt. As a result department has proved about 4.4 km. strike extension of marble having 10 to 50 mts. thickness, under the sand cover of 15 to 20 mts. Marble available in the extension area is generally white in colour having gray lines and fine grained in texture.

Almost complete marble area is being exploited under 2 mining leases and 817 Quarry licenses

GYPSUM

In Nagaur district thick gypseous beds belonging to Nagaur formation are found around Nagaur,

Bhadwasi, Khairat, Malgan, Manglot, Pilanwasi and Untiwalia village. Out of these, 930 M.T. reserves of subsurface gypsum deposits have been estimated by Geological Survey of in Nagaur-Bhadwasi area. In Nagaur district gypsum occurs both as massive, compact beds withnin the Marwar Super group of rocks and as gypsite which is an earthy porous material composed of granular, platy or fibrous gypseous aggregates mixed with sand, clay and calcareous matter in low lying areas. There are two main separate zones in Nagaur district where gypsum bed occurs, the northern one is covering about 18 sq. km. area near Nagaur-Bhadwasi. In this zone gypsum bed occurs at a depth of 35.50 to 106.86 mts. having 13.8 to 43.7 mt. thickness. In the southern zone it occurs at a deeper level from 109.72 to 115.52 mt. depth. The RSMM Ltd. is the main exploitation agency for gypsum in the district which is mainly working near of Manglod, Bhadwasi and Jeevan Bera. The mineral so produced is mostly consumed in soil reclamation, in fertilizer factories and is used for the manufacture of cement, plaster of paris, moulds etc.

TUNGSTEN

Occurrences of tungsten in India are very few, the best known deposit being those of Degana area in Nagaur district. Here tungsten ore occurs in quartz veins along shear zones in the granite and also as stock works in these hills. It also occurs as alluvial deposit around the foot hills. The mine was worked in the past by the Department of Mines & Geology and R. S. M. D. C. For the systematic and rapid development of the tungsten resources of the state, the mine has been transferred to Hindustan Zinc Ltd.

Reserves computed by I. B. M. in Degana area are as follow:

Lode deposit 53,000 tonnes with 0.54 % W03 (exhausted)

Alluvial deposit 3.3 million tonnes with 0.04 % W03

Stock works 2.5 millions tonnes with 0.25 % W03

There is only one mining lease for tungsten in Nagaur district covering 200.71 hectres area. Rajasthan had been leading producer of tungsten ore in the country and it produced 22.6 tonnes of tungsten concentrate during the year 1990. Out of the total tungsten ore reserves of 50.224 million tonnes in the country, Rajasthan possess 6.25 million tonnes which represent about 12 % of the country's total reserves. There is no production of tungsten concentrat during last 10 years as the imported ore is much cheaper than the indigenous product.

SANDSTONE

The sandstone of Jodhpur group of rocks is exploited from Khatu and Ladnun area. The blocks of Khatu sandstone (trade name Khatu Teak, Khatu Rainbow) are being extensively quarried for export. At present the mining of Khatu

17 sandstone is being done below 4 to 5 meter thick cover of sand. In Rajasthan block mining of sandstone by wire-saw method was applied first time in this area. Ladnun sandstone is being used for masonary purpose.

Near Harsolav and Nagaur, sandstone of Nagaur group is also extensively quarried for masonary purpose.

CLAYS

The clays occurring in Nagaur district belong to the category of china clay and highly plastic ball clays which are added to induce plasticity and high bonding quality. These clays belong to Khajwana series of Eocene age. A 1.5 mts. thick clay bed in Nagaur sandstone is exposed in quarry near Khajwana. Pockets of white to cream coloured, plastic clays also occur at Kuladah, Indawar,Lamba,Mokala,Mundwa,NimbriChundawatan,Saradhana,Pateli,Borawad,Jhunjhala,Rupathal and Huldah. The P.C.E. of clay is up to 1350° C. The clay pockets are up to 3 - 2.5 mts. The fire clay is reported from Sharadhana area which is held under lease.

SILICA SAND

Silica sand available in Khajawana area contains 91.22°% SiO2, 2.88% Al2O3 and 0.32% Fe2O3 with a recovery of 60%. 0.75 Million tonnes reserves have been estimated in this area.

FULLER'S EARTH

In Nagaur district kuchera - Khajwana Formation (Eocene age) is reported to contain fuller's earth associated with ferrugineous grits, gritty felspathic sandstone, black shale and lignite. An occurrence of fuller's earth about 10m thick

18 in a well section 1.5 Km. north of Igiar was located by G.S.I. Good quality of fullers earth is exposed in well sections of Arisar, Deswal and Chhappri.

Sambhar lake: It is the most important salt lake that covers an area of 243 sq. km. and produces about 2,00,000 tonnes of common salt annually. The average composition of the Sambhar lake brine in 88 % NaCI, 7.5 %, Na2O3 and 4.5 Na2CO3. As per rough estimatess to 6 MT of Na2SO4 and 2 to 3 MT Na2CO3 can be obtained from the Sambhar lake.

Didwana Lake: It is an oval shaped depression 8.04 Kms. long and 1.34 Kms. wide, situated at a distance of about 64 Kms. from Sambhar covering an area of 10.4 Sq. Km. The salt is of very poor quality containing 80% NaCI but rich in Na2 S04. Extensive deposits of anhydrite crystalline Na2 S04 have been reported from Didwana known by the name of "rohi" which contains 90% Na2 SO4 and is composed of a mineral called "thenardite". One plant for producing sodium sulphate and for producing sodium sulphide was commissioned near Didwana under the public sector.

CHAPTER 6

Process of Deposition of Sediments in the river of the District

Deposition of sediments in the river of Nagaur district is the Geological process in which sediments, soil and rocks are added to a landform or land mass. Sediment flowing via gravity, transport previously eroded sediment, which, at the loss of enough kinetic energy in the fluid, is deposited, building up layers of sediment. Deposition occurs when the forces responsible for sediment transportation are no longer sufficient to overcome the forces of gravity and friction, creating a resistance to motion, this is known as the null-point hypothesis.

Economy

Rajasthan's economy is primarily agricultural and pastoral. Wheat and barley are cultivated over large areas, as are pulses, sugarcane, and oilseeds. Cotton and tobacco are the state's cash crops. Rajasthan is among the largest producers of edible oils in India and the second largest producer of oilseeds. Rajasthan is also the biggest wool- producing state in India and the main opium producer and consumer. There are mainly two crop seasons. The water for irrigation comes from wells and tanks. The Indira Gandhi Canal irrigates northwestern Rajasthan.

The main industries are mineral based, agriculture based, and textiles. Rajasthan is the second largest producer of polyester fibre in India. The Pali and District produces more cloth than Bhiwandi, Maharashtra and the bhilwara is the largest city in suitings production and export and Pali is largest city in cotton and polyster in blouse pes and rubia production and export. Several prominent chemical and engineering companies are located in the city of Kota, in southern Rajasthan. Rajasthan is pre-eminent in quarrying and mining in India. The TajMahal was built from the white marble which was mined from a town called Makrana. The state is the second largest source of cement in India. It has rich salt deposits at Sambhar, copper mines at , and zinc mines at Dariba, Zawar mines at Zawarmala for zinc, Rampura Aghucha (opencast) near Bhilwara.

CHAPTER 9

Physiography of District

GEOGRAPHICAL LOCATION:

Nagaur district is located in the shape of square in the middle of Rajasthan. The district north 260.25” & 270.40” North Latitude & 730.10” & 750.15” East Longitude is located between East Deshantpr Samanyy slope west side of the district. The district is at an altitude of about 300 meters above sea level. It is 640 meters in height in the south between 250 m and Uttyr is linked. Bikaner and Churu in the north, east Sikar and Jaipur, Ajmer and shift south and west and is located in . Three-forth of the district is thar.

Total Sretrfl 17 718 km of district and the maximum width of 229 kilometers from east to west. A panoramic view of the size of the district, the state's largest district. Most of the north-eastern part of the district level, but the two have some dispersed small Pahariya. In north-western and northern part of the sand dunes. This area is Hissaa of Thar Registakn. District in gesso, and lime Ptayh, Timber Ptrmc gravel, rubble, twisted, marble, to Lyme, Cips, sodium sulphate and salt minerals are found Mukyam. The district does not have any river flow throughout the year. flows Nagaur district only 37 kilometers, the coast Alniawas, will, Rohisa, Raiji, Jasnagr and Surpura villages are inhabited. The River Balui are full of sand. Hrsur Lmbathi sewer district 48 kilometers, which is the largest sewer. Khatu, Burnell, and be Jayal etc. rains too small villages near the brook flows. Sambar Didwana Lake is the largest lake in the district.

Nagaur district of the lake is only a few Hissao sambar. Sushka and warm climate of the district. throughout the year is 38.24 cm. The maximum temperature in summer is 48 degrees Celsius and 40 68 degrees Celsius temperature in between. January is the coldest month with minimum temperature of 6 degree celcius to 7 degrees Celsius.

Topography

A big part of the district is covered by blown sand and sand dunes which form part of the great Thar district. Active dunes and sand shifting are main hazards to cultivation. Sand dunes are common in the north and western parts, where they arise over 30 meters and are aligned in a north west and south cast direction. Constant deterioration of soil and mining activity has resulted in soil erosion. The Aravali range of hills passes in eastern and south eastern part of the district. The average elevation of the hills in district is barely 310 meters. There in no perennial river in the district, River Luni is a non-perennial river which flows through the district. The flow of river-Luni depends upon the volume of rain fall it receives during monsoons. The river flows in the southwest direction through the hills and plains of the Marwar region in Rajasthan. The river flows south-west and enters the Thar Desert before dissipating into the Rann of Kutch, traversing a total of 495 km. In spite of the high salinity, it is a major river in the region and serves as a primary source of irrigation. The Luni is not saline until it reaches , where high salt content in the soil impacts the river.

CHAPTER 10

RAINFALL & CLIMATE The district experiences arid to semi-arid type of climate. Mean annual rainfall (1971-2005) of the district is 410mm. whereas normal rainfall (1901-1970) is lower than average rainfall and placed at 363.1 mm. It is obvious that there is significant increase in rainfall during the last 30 years. The rainy days are limited to maximum 15 in a year. Almost 80% of the total annual rainfall is received during the southwest monsoon. The probability of occurrence of mean annual rainfall is 38%. Based on agriculture criteria indicates that the district is prone to mild and normal type of droughts. Occurrence of severe and very severe type of drought is very rare. There is not much variation in areal distribution of rainfall. However, the southern part of the district gets slightly more rainfall than northern part. The mean annual rainfall is lowest at Didwana (347.8mm), which lies in northern part of the district, whereas the mean annual rainfall is highest at Degana (471.9mm) which lies in southern of the district. Seasonal Distribution The rainfall in the district is highly seasonal. More than 90% of the total annual rainfall is received during the south – west monsoon season. The monsoon enters the district in the first week of July and withdraws by the middle of September. July is followed by August with monthly normal rainfall of 120.8mm. As the district lies in the desert area, extreme of heat in summer and cold in winter is the characteristic of the desert.. Both day and night temperature increases gradually and reaches their maximum values in May and June respectively. The temperature varies from 46 degree in summer to 7 degree in winter. The cold season starts by middle of November and lasts till February. January is the coldest month with both mean maximum and minimum temperatures being lowest at 22.5° and 6.7° respectively. The minimum temperature may sometime drop down to below the freezing point of water and frost may occur. The diurnal variation in temperature during winter is as high as

70

16°C. Both maximum and minimum temperature begins to rise rapidly from February onwards, reaching their respective maximum in late May or early June. The mean daily maximum temperature in May is 40.4°C and the mean daily minimum temperature is 25.7°C. Night temperatures in June are much higher than in May with mean daily minimum temperature of 27.9°C. During the summer month the maximum temperature sometimes exceeds 48°C. There is appreciable drop in temperature with the onset of south – west monsoon by about first week of July. After the withdrawal of monsoon by middle of September, the day temperatures register slight increase and a secondary maxima is observed in October. The night temperature, however, continue to fall gradually Atmosphere is generally dry except during the monsoon period. The humidity is highest in August with mean daily relative humidity is 80%. The annual maximum potential evapotranspiration in the district is quite high and it is highest (255.1 mm) in the month of May and lowest (76.5 mm) in the month of December 3.0. Monthly rainfall data-

71

GEOMORPHOLOGY The general topography of the area is fairly even. Slope of the area is fairly even. Slope of the land surface is towards west and elevation varies from 250 meter above msl in south to 640 m above msl in north. South-eastern part of the district comprises small scattered hillock. The northern, north-western and north-eastern part of the district is having sand dunes. The offshoots of are projected along the common boundary of and Merta, Nawa and Parbatsar tehsils of Nagaur district. There is no river which originated from the district however; the river Luni which rises near in Ajmer district draining western slopes of the Aravalli crosses the district in the southern part flowing for about 37 km in the western direction. It is an ephemeral river and carries runoff that is generated in the upper reaches. Channel deposits of Luni facilitate percolation during rainstorm, thereby feeding the neighboring wells along its bank. Other nalas and streams are also ephemeral in nature which originate and die out in the district itself.

Soil characteristics Four types of soils have been reported in the district viz, clay, clay loam, sandy loam and sandy soil. The general texture of the soil in the area is sandy loam to clayey loam which is further classified into “Barani” or unirrigated and “Chahi” or irrigated soil. A part of Nagaur tehsils and south-eastern part of Merta tehsils has deep sandy loam, while red loamy soil exists else where in the Merta tehsils except on the banks of river Luni, Light loamy soil occurs in Parbatsar tehsils away from hill ranges. A longitudinal belt from Didwana to Nawa extending up to Sambhar Lake has the characteristics of alkaline soil . Distribution of different types of soils is shown in the following table.

CHAPTER 11

GEOLOGY AND MINERAL WEALTH OF DISTRICT

GEOLOGY

Geologically, Nagaur district is occupied by the Supergroup rocks, Erinpura Granite, Malani Igneous suite, Marwar supergroup rocks and Jogira Fuller's Earth/Kuchera Khajwana series rocks. Delhi Super group comprises the Raialo, and Ajabgarh Groups. Raialo Group is mainly represented by conglomeratic quartzite, dolomitic and calcitic marbles and garnetiferous schist.These are mainly exposed near Ras and Makrana. Now a days Raialo Group has been designated as Ras Formation locally, which has been given seperate entity and stratigraphically placed as Post-Aravalli and Pre-Delhi. The Alwar Group comprises mainly quartzite and arkose. The overlying Ajabgarh Group is consist of crystalline limestone and marble, siliceous limestone, ferruginous quartzite, slate and schist. Alwar and Ajabgarh Group of rocks are mainly exposed in the north eastern part of district around Kuchaman & Harsor. The Erinpura granite occurs as gneissic granite, migmatized granite and massive granite forming small isolated out crops in southern part of the district. Malani Igneous Suite of rocks viz. rhyolite and granite are exposed in the eastern part of the district near Degana and Didwana. Group of rocks which are represented by phyllite: micaschist with intercalated quartzite & marble bands and Punagarh Group of rocks

74 viz. shale, phyllite, micaschist and quartzite with synsedimentary metavolcanics and tuffs were considered as part of Aravalli system by A.M. Heron but recent workers have placed these sequences at the top of Delhi Supergroup.

The Delhi Supergroup of metamorphites along with intrusives and effusives are overlain by unfossiliferous and marine sedimentary sequence forming the Marwar Supergroup, occupying more then 50% area of the district and mainly exposed in the western side. This sedimentary sequence has been classified into Jodhpur, Bilara and Nagaur Groups representing arenaceous, calcareous and arenaceous-argillaceous facies of sedimentation respectively. Jodhpur Group is further represented by Sonia Sandstone which shows assemblage of shale, sandstone, banded chert and carbonates; Girbhakar sand stone which is texturally mature sandstone containing alternate grit and pebble layers with abundant sedimentery structures. The Jodhpur Group is overlained by Bilara Group comprising Dhanapa dolomite, Gotan limestone and Pondlo Dolomite. The Dhanapa Dolomite shows development of stromatolites of weedia, collenia and cryptozoon species. The Hanseran Evaporite Group which comprises a rhythmic sequence of halite conaining potash minerals, anhydrite, caly, dolomite, magnesite and glauconite is considered time equivalent to Bilara Group. The lithounits of Nagaur Group i.e. Nagaur sandstone and Tunklian sandstone, unconformably overlies the Pandlo Dolomite of Bilara Group and comenences with a basal conglomerate containing clasts and pebbles of dolomite, chert and sandstone in an arenaceous to calcareous matrix. The conglomerate grades upward into a sequence of red sandstone, siltstone and claystone, belonging to the Nagaur sandstone. Conformably overlying the Nagaur sandstone is the Tunklian sandstone comprising red claystone, silts tone, calcareous clay and gritty to pebbly sandstone. The Nagaur Group is characterised by the presence of evaporite sequence ie. anhydrite and gypsum in Nagaur area and halite in Lakhasar area. Youngest lithounits exposed in the district are of Lower Eocene age named as Jogira Fullers Earth which has locally been described as Kuchera-Khajwana Formation by the recent workers who had carried out geological mapping in Nagaur district. This formation is represented by calcareous shale, siltstone, marl, limestone and sandy limestone with highly fossiliferous horizons.

MINERAL OCCURRENCES

It is the Makrana marble which has brought the Nagaur district on mineral map of the world. Other than the marble, limestone of varying grades. i.e. SMS grade, cement grade and chemical grade: tungsten, gypsum, lignite, halite with potash, clay etc. are important mineral resources of district. Mineral wise and areawise brief description of exploration, reserves and current status of blocks is given as below:

LIMESTONE

Limestone occuring in the Nagaur district belongs to Bilara Group of Marwar Supergroup. It is intermitantly exposed over a length of 150 kms in three prominent belts. The first major and important belt is passing through Bilara, Heera, Keria, Hari Singh, Bhawanda, Tadas, Tankla, Manakpur, Bher, Madpura-Gujron Ki Dhani, Chawandia and Tantwas. The second one is passing through Mundwa, Rol-Quazia, Gangwana, Surjniyawas Somna and Deh. The third belt which is comparatively smaller is located between Jayal and Katothi. The limestone occurring in these three belts exhibit great variation in physical, chemical and textural attributes. In general limestone beds are horizontally to sub horizontally disposed with some minor changes, locally at places. There is gradational change from limestone to dolomite through magnesium limestone, dolomitic limestone and calcitic dolomite. At number of places it also exhibits extensive development of biohermal, nonphosphatic stromatolites.the systematic exploration work for lime stone was initiated by department in 1984 except some prilimaery prospecting carried in 1961-64 near Rol Quazian

MARBLE: Since long Makrana in tehsil Parabatsar of Nagaur district is known in the world for the production of quality marble. The marble deposit extends over a strike length of about 12 Kms. having a width of 1.6 Km., located in the west of Makrana town. It is trending NNE-SSW with steep dips from 50 to 70° towards ESE. In this belt there are six parallel to sub-parallel bands of marble having 2 to12 mts.width, occurring between Borawad and Makrana. In the main Makrana belt 50 M.T. reserves of marble have been estimated. On the basis of physical characters like colour, pattern, grain size etc. Makrana marble belt has been divided into 14 blocks. Block wise description as follows :

S. No. Name of Block Type of marble Grain size Grade

1 Bhermala Pink, White, Fine I & II

10 Pink Range Light pink - -

11 Paharkuan Range White adanga - -

12 Modi Dungari Range Adanga - II

13 Kala Dungri Range Adanga - II

14 Boarwad Range - Coarse II

Out of these 14 blocks, marble produced from Chausara block is white in colour and of best quality. In general, Makrana marble is coarse grained in texture but some fine grained verities are also available in various shades. The dark streaks in some white and pink marbles are due to local bands of graphitic nature derived from the original limestone. Sometimes it gives a beautiful appearance (Adanga marble) to the finished product which is in great demand especially for exterior use.

In the main Makrana belt marble quarries has gone so deep that now it is practically unmanageable for mining point of view. Department of Mines & Geology has carried out detailed exploration work to prove the subsurface continuity of the Makrana marble belt. As a result department has proved about 4.4 km. strike extension of marble having 10 to 50 mts. thickness, under the sand cover of 15 to 20 mts. Marble available in the extension area is generally white in colour having gray lines and fine grained in texture.

Almost complete marble area is being exploited under 2 mining leases and 817 Quarry licenses

GYPSUM

In Nagaur district thick gypseous beds belonging to Nagaur formation are found around Nagaur,

Bhadwasi, Khairat, Malgan, Manglot, Pilanwasi and Untiwalia village. Out of these, 930 M.T. reserves of subsurface gypsum deposits have been estimated by Geological Survey of India in Nagaur-Bhadwasi area. In Nagaur district gypsum occurs both as massive, compact beds withnin the Marwar Super group of rocks and as gypsite which is an earthy porous material composed of granular, platy or fibrous gypseous aggregates mixed with sand, clay and calcareous matter in low lying areas. There are two main separate zones in Nagaur district where gypsum bed occurs, the northern one is covering about 18 sq. km. area near Nagaur-Bhadwasi. In this zone gypsum bed occurs at a depth of 35.50 to 106.86 mts. having 13.8 to 43.7 mt. thickness. In the southern zone it occurs at a deeper level from 109.72 to 115.52 mt. depth. The RSMM Ltd. is the main exploitation agency for gypsum in the district which is mainly working near of Manglod, Bhadwasi and Jeevan Bera. The mineral so produced is mostly consumed in soil reclamation, in fertilizer factories and is used for the manufacture of cement, plaster of paris, moulds etc.

TUNGSTEN

Occurrences of tungsten in India are very few, the best known deposit being those of Degana area in Nagaur district. Here tungsten ore occurs in quartz veins along shear zones in the granite and also as stock works in these hills. It also occurs as alluvial deposit around the foot hills. The mine was worked in the past by the Department of Mines & Geology and R. S. M. D. C. For the systematic and rapid development of the tungsten resources of the state, the mine has been transferred to Hindustan Zinc Ltd.

Reserves computed by I. B. M. in Degana area are as follow:

Lode deposit 53,000 tonnes with 0.54 % W03 (exhausted)

Alluvial deposit 3.3 million tonnes with 0.04 % W03

Stock works 2.5 millions tonnes with 0.25 % W03

There is only one mining lease for tungsten in Nagaur district covering 200.71 hectres area. Rajasthan had been leading producer of tungsten ore in the country and it produced 22.6 tonnes of tungsten concentrate during the year 1990. Out of the total tungsten ore reserves of 50.224 million tonnes in the country, Rajasthan possess 6.25 million tonnes which represent about 12 % of the country's total reserves. There is no production of tungsten concentrat during last 10 years as the imported ore is much cheaper than the indigenous product.

SANDSTONE

The sandstone of Jodhpur group of rocks is exploited from Khatu and Ladnun area. The blocks of Khatu sandstone (trade name Khatu Teak, Khatu Rainbow) are being extensively quarried for export. At present the mining of Khatu

92 sandstone is being done below 4 to 5 meter thick cover of sand. In Rajasthan block mining of sandstone by wire-saw method was applied first time in this area. Ladnun sandstone is being used for masonary purpose.

Near Harsolav and Nagaur, sandstone of Nagaur group is also extensively quarried for masonary purpose.

CLAYS

The clays occurring in Nagaur district belong to the category of china clay and highly plastic ball clays which are added to induce plasticity and high bonding quality. These clays belong to Khajwana series of Eocene age. A 1.5 mts. thick clay bed in Nagaur sandstone is exposed in quarry near Khajwana. Pockets of white to cream coloured, plastic clays also occur at Kuladah, Indawar,Lamba,Mokala,Mundwa,NimbriChundawatan,Saradhana,Pateli,Borawad,Jhunjhala,Rupathal and Huldah. The P.C.E. of clay is up to 1350° C. The clay pockets are up to 3 - 2.5 mts. The fire clay is reported from Sharadhana area which is held under lease.

SILICA SAND

Silica sand available in Khajawana area contains 91.22°% SiO2, 2.88% Al2O3 and 0.32% Fe2O3 with a recovery of 60%. 0.75 Million tonnes reserves have been estimated in this area.

FULLER'S EARTH

In Nagaur district kuchera - Khajwana Formation (Eocene age) is reported to contain fuller's earth associated with ferrugineous grits, gritty felspathic sandstone, black shale and lignite. An occurrence of fuller's earth about 10m thick

93 in a well section 1.5 Km. north of Igiar was located by G.S.I. Good quality of fullers earth is exposed in well sections of Arisar, Deswal and Chhappri.

COMMON SALT

Salt lake of Nagaur district are considered as an important sources of salt production in the country. The salt lakes of Nagaur district are the Sambhar lake near Nawa which is partly in Jaipur district, Didwana lake, Kuchaman lake and Sargot lake, of these Sambhar lake and Didwana lake are important and described below.

Sambhar lake: It is the most important salt lake that covers an area of 243 sq. km. and produces about 2,00,000 tonnes of common salt annually. The average composition of the Sambhar lake brine in 88 % NaCI, 7.5 %, Na2O3 and 4.5 Na2CO3. As per rough estimatess to 6 MT of Na2SO4 and 2 to 3 MT Na2CO3 can be obtained from Sambhar lake.

Didwana Lake: It is an oval shaped depression 8.04 Kms. long and 1.34 Kms. wide, situated at a distance of about 64 Kms. from Sambhar covering an area of 10.4 Sq. Km. The salt is of very poor quality containing 80% NaCI but rich in Na2 S04. Extensive deposits of anhydrite crystalline Na2 S04 have been reported from Didwana known by the name of "rohi" which contains 90% Na2 SO4 and is composed of a mineral called "thenardite". One plant for producing sodium sulphate and for producing sodium sulphide was commissioned near Didwana under the public sector.
