No Not Applicable Semi Mechanized open cast method of deployment by Excavator & Jack Hammer Drilling and small scale blasting for mining of mineral. The salient features of mining method are:- The height of the bench will be 5.0 m and width will not less than the height of the bench. The mining will be done from top to bottom. Production and manufacturing 1.13 Yes Considering the stability of rocks the final processes? slope or ultimate pit slope will 60° from vertical. Small scale blasting with low charge of holes will be done to loosen the rocks. Haul road will be developed up to point of loading and will not have gradient more than 1 in 16. Transportation of the mineral from mine to destination will be by tarpaulin covered trucks. Facilities for storage of goods or Temporary facility for storage of mineral will be 1.14 No materials? developed in mine site. The top soil & over burden thickness varies from avg. 0.30 m to 0.40 m.
