PRE FEASIBILITY REPORT PACHAPALAYAM ROUGH STONE AND GRAVEL QUARRY UNDER EIA NOTIFICATION 2006 K.CHINNASAMY (ii) Brief description of nature of the project Mining: The lease applied area is almost plain terrain. The Rough stone and Gravel quarrying operation is proposed to carry out by conventional opencast Semi mechanized method by formation of benches. Ten benches are proposed with a height of 5mts on Rough stone and Gravel. 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 the Rough stone from pithead to the needy crushers. The proposed quantity of Rough Stone and Gravel: The proposed quantity of reserves is about 86935m3 of Rough stone and 2907m3 of Dumped Gravel. The Overburden is in the form of Gravel up to depth 2m. It was removed during the previous quarrying operation and dumped on the Western side of the lease applied area the dimension of dumped gravel is 51m (L) x 38m (W) x 1.5m (H).
