The quarry lease area of 1.840 Ha khasra no 2842/2, is situated near Village Thanra, Tehsil Karera, District Shivpuri (Madhya Pradesh), is at a distance of about 70 Km from District headquarter Shivpuri and 2.5 Km from village Thanra. The quarry area is at Topo sheet No. 54K/7 of Survey of India Pillars Latitude (N) Longitude (E) A 25028’20.70” 78017’02.70” B 25028’24.90” 78017’02.70” C 25028’24.90” 78017’07.20” D 25028’20.58” 78017’07.30” 3 (iii) Details of alternate sites considered and the basis of selecting the proposed site, particularly the environmental considerations gone into should be highlighted. This is a mining project, which is site specific due to occurrence of rock, the site cannot be shifted. (iv) Size or magnitude of operation. The targeted production of 20,000 cu.m. stone (gitti) per annum. (v) Project description with process details (a schematic diagram/flow chart showing the project layout, components of the project etc. should be given). This is a proposed project, and Project Proponent is now applying for environment clearance. Grant of Mining Drilling, Blasting, Haulage by Primary & Lease Loading in tippers tippers to Secondary by machinery Crusher Crushing Dispatch to Separate Stock Screening & Consumers piling of separating different sizes different Sizes (vi) Raw material required along with estimated quantity, likely source, marketing area of final product/s, Mode of transport of raw Material and Finished Products. The area under reference has been used for extraction of Stone (gitti) by mechanized opencast mining method by removing overburden & side burden. A stone Crusher is operating for breaking, screening and sizing the stone. The Stone (gitti) is dispatched by road as per needs for civil construction work/ road work/ railway track. The H.S.D. requirement will be 100 litres per day. 4 (vii) Resource optimization/recycling and reuse envisaged in the project, if any, should be briefly outlined. Minerals are depleting asset once mined, they cannot be replenished like agriculture, vegetation thus a scientific approach taken up in exploitation of mineral with systematic method. (viii) Availability of water its source, Energy/power requirement and source should be given. The water required at the mine for drinking and domestic purpose is being obtained from a water well located near M.L. area. The water for other purpose will be obtained from sump developed in mine pit. Water balance Chart on per day basis: WATER (6.0 KLD) 1. GREEN BELT DEVELOPMENT (2.0 KLD) 1. DRINKING PURPOSE (0.5 KLD) 2. DUST SUPPRESSION (1.0 KLD) 3. MINING ACTIVITY (2.5 KLD) SOAK PIT Water will be obtained from open well/tube well. (ix) Quantity of wastes to be generated (liquid and solid) and scheme for their Management/disposal. The rock gitti is directly saleable material in the area. There is no mineral beneficiation involve and therefore there will be no tailing. All the rock sizes are useable and will be sold, generating no waste rock. Only 10 % of overburden will generate, which is utilized in road strengthening. (x) Schematic representations of the feasibility drawing which give information of EIA purpose. As per the MoEF notification dated 15th January, 2016 the project falls in ‘B2’ Category.
