IBRAHIM PROJECT : Masonry Stone Mine (Quarry project) PRE - FEASIBILTY REPORT APPLICANT : M/s SOUTHERN GRANITES 4 1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The building Stone Quarry (Minor Mineral) mining project of M/s Southern Granites is situated at Survey Nos. 327/3, 328/2, 328/4, 329/4, 328/5, 330/5, 329/3 of Peringome Village & Panchayat, Thaliparamba Taluk, Kannur District, Kerala in area 4.6057 hectares. The project proponent is posses Letter Of Intent (LOI) for the proposed Lease area issued by Mining & Geology Department, Govt. of Kerala. Mining projects of minor minerals with area less than 50 ha. of mining lease are categorized as category 'B'. As per O.M. dated 24/12/2013 by Ministry of Environment & Forests, Govt. of India, all projects with mining area less than 25 hectares is classified as Category B2. The Eco-friendly Mining Plan prepared by an Indian Bureau of Mine (IBM) approved Recognized Qualified Person (RQP) has been approved by Mining & Geology Department, Govt. of Kerala. This Mining plan is based on the requirements under the Kerala Minor Mineral Concession Rules, 2015. The land for the proposed quarry is private owned land and the land is possessed by M/s Southern Granites The targeted production of mine will be 1,20,000 MTA. The estimated project cost will be Rs. 1.20 Crores. The expected life of mine estimated will be about 11 years. The mining operation will be carried out by opencast semi- mechanized method as per the approved Mining Plan. 1.1 SALIENT FEATURES & ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING OF THE PROJECT Particulars Details Geographical Location Latitude (N) 12°12’17.22"N to 12°12'25.67"N Longitude (E) 75°20'04.25"E to 75°20'15.18"E Total Mine Lease area 4.6057 hectares Total area owned by the proponent 6.9586 hectare Current status of the quarry New Quarry Project Local name of the project area Madakampoyil Project Site Toposheet No. 48 P/8 Production 1,20,000 MTA Geological Reserves 38,16,586 MT Mineable Reserves 12,78,259 MT Life of Mine About 11 years Estimated project cost Rs. 1.20 Crores Man Power 18 persons Highest and lowest elevation 150 m MSL to 65 m MSL Land use Private land with Rocky land ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERS & CONSULTANTS PVT.
