PRE FEASIBILITY REPORT OF VELAMPALAYAM ROUGH STONE AND GRAVEL QUARRY N.BALASHANMUGAM UNDER EIA NOTIFICATION 2006 (ii) Brief description of nature of the project Mining: The lease area is exhibits plain topography. The Rough Stone and Gravel Quarrying operation is proposed to carry out by conventional opencast mechanized method by formation of benches. Eight benches are proposed with a height of 5mts on Rough stone. The width of each bench is proposed not less than the height. The quarry operation involves jackhammer drilling; Slurry blasting and excavators are used for loading of Rough stone to needy crushers. The proposed quantity of Rough Stone: The proposed quantity of reserves is about 48,080m3 of Rough stone.. The quarry operation is proposed up to depth 30m below the ground level for One year Eleven months. (iii) Need for the project and its importance to the country and or region The Rough stone is important building material to our country and region; it’s a vital material for Infrastructure development and Road widening project.
