It is a mining project of Ball Clay & Silica Sand from the applied area of

17.9979 ha, situated at near village – Guda, Tehsil – Kolayat, District –

Bikaner (Rajasthan). Proposed production is 1,00,000 TPA.(70,000 TPA Ball

Clay & 30,000 TPA Silica Sand ) The mineral produced here will be sold to

the ceramic based industries. The method of mining will be opencast

mechanized.

Mining will be done by open cast mechanized method of mining by forming

benches of 3.0 m height and width will be 3 times the width of the widest

machinery put to be use in the mine. The sides of the benches will be kept at

the safe angle not more than 75 degree from horizontal. The yield of Ball Clay

is around 70% and remaining 30% is Silica Sand. The Ball Clay, after sorting

and sizing, will be loaded manually into Tippers 0f 20 tonnes capacity and

then it will directly be sold to the ceramic based industries. The waste will be

excavated by the Excavator of CATERPILLAR 350 and then it will be used

for the backfilling purpose. Tippers are proposed for the transportation of the

waste to the proposed area of backfill.

Quarry limits of all workings are planned with a 7.5 mtrs statutory barriers

against the lease boundary or roads existing in the lease hold.

All haulage roads, the alignment of which keeps on changing depending upon

the working in the pit, joins the existing surface roads of the lease hold.

Aeolian landforms like Sand dunes, most of the dunes found in this area are

of longitudinal type with comparatively low lengths at their crest and larger

lengths of the limbs, denoting NE prominent wind direction with consistent

velocity all around the year. However all the dunes are now settled. The soil

is sandy considered into Aridisol with windblown aolian quartz sand. The

dunal sand varies in thickness over the area.

4.6 Soil Classification

Major Soil Type of district - Loam, Clay loam, pebbly & stony and sandy loam

The soils of Bikaner district are predominantly light textured, weak –

structured but well – drained. The arid climate with low rainfall, high

temperature and high evaporation losses have resulted in physical and

mechanical disintegration of the parent material giving rise to predominance

of coarse fraction in the soil. Very little chemical weathering has been taking

place and the development of soil is mostly indistinct. Soils are generally of

desertic type with poor fertility status and very low water retention capacity.

Regional Geology:

Geologically the oldest rocks exposed in the limited area and encountered in

dug &, tube wells etc. have been equated to upper vindhyan of south east

Rajasthan known as trans Aravalli- Vindhyans Overlying them are Tertiary

formations followed by quaternary to recent sediments.

Local Geology:

Locally the Kolayat area is very well known for clay deposits. Clay occurs

near Guda, Kotri, Marh and Kolayat and was investigated by G.S.I. Three

horizons of clay inter¬bedded with Limestone are noted in this area.

The middle horizon is traceable for about 18 km. length and provides clay of

the best quality. It comprises fire clay beds 1 to 3 mts, thick. The clay is white

to creamy or brownish white, and turns white on firing. The Upper horizon

consists of a single clay bed 3mts. to 7 mts thick, exposed over a strike length

of 5 km. between Madh and JogiraTalao. It is similar to that of the middle

horizon in physical and chemical properties. The two bands in the lower

horizon are 1.5 to 2.5 mts. in the thickness. It is highly plastic, fine grained

and composed mostly of kaolinite.

From the top, few bands of Nummulitic Limestone are observed intercalated

with Fuller’s Earth, the thickness of Fuller’s Earth continues to increase

towards NW. There is a consistent dip of 5O-6O towards NW with strike

towards N 25O. The lenses of limestone are blocky in nature that tends to pry


17


out in lenticular blocks. The local thickness of White clay horizon here varies

from 4.5 mts to 5.0 mts. The upper horizon consists of clay with mildly low

plasticity than the lower horizon. This clay band is underlain by fine Silica

rich sandstone that has high porosity.

4.7 CLIMATIC DATA FROM SECONDARY SOURCES

Lying in the Western Desert region of the state of Rajasthan , the climate of

Bikaner is not different from the other cities of the same region. Bikaner's

climate is typical to the Thar Desert area with extreme temperatures.

During the summer, the temperature in Bikaner rises very often above 48°

Centigrade. The extreme heat becomes unbearable but humidity is not so

high. Winter in Bikaner witnesses a drastic change when temperature comes

down to 4 to 5 degree. Any normal summer day in Bikaner is very hot but the

evening is quite cold. The period from October to February is the pleasant

most season in Bikaner. A report of a normal autumn day of the city will give

an idea of the weather in Bikaner.

4.8 Social Infrastructure

The entire requisite infrastructure required for mine will be developed.

The infrastructure like office, rest shelter, toilets, first aid stations etc. will be

provided at project site.

The nearest village is Guda, health & educational facilities (in the form of

primary and secondary schools) are available there.

Medical facilities, Primary Health Centre are there in the area, imparting

services, for advance medical facilities. In each village one health worker has

been appointed by the Govt. to provide primary health facilities.

Village people are availing drinking water facilities generally from the Hand

pump, open well and tube well. The water supply is also supplied through

tanker in few villages. During summer scarcity of water has been noticed.

5. 0 PLANNING BRIEF

5.1 Planning Concept:

It is a mining project of mineral Ball Clay and Silica Sand . The proposed

production of Ball Clay 70,000 TPA & Silica Sand 30,000 TPA thus total

mineral will be produced 1,00,000 TPA. Opencast, mechanized method of

mining will be adopted and transportation of mineral shall be done through

road by Trucks.

5.2 Population Projection

Man power requirement for mining is estimated to be 32 Nos. Most of the

employees will be recruited from neighboring village depending upon the

availability of skilled & unskilled people. Migration of highly educated and

skilled person will take place but it will be on temporary basis. So there will

no permanently migration of people, hence there will be no population

projection.

skilled man-power surrounding the project site.

In operation phase, the proposed project would require significant workforce

of non-technical and technical persons. Migration of highly education and

skilled experience will result in increase of literacy in the surrounding

villages.

In addition, the proposed expansion of project shall enhance the prospects

of employment.

Assessment of the potential socioeconomic benefits during mining

focused primarily on work force requirements, acquisition of supplies,

and the temporary increased demand for services related to the mining

project like food, housing, communications, law enforcement, medical care,

local transportation etc. Due to these, additional revenue to local suppliers

for required products and services related to the construction and operation

phases of the project will generate.

Thus, mining activities will provide numerous new, although temporary,

work opportunities for both skilled and unskilled labor, as well as

contribute significantly to the local economy.

Additional government revenue expected from royalty, taxes, duties and

other fees.

An added benefit to the proposed project will result in considerable growth of

stimulating the industrial and commercial activities in the state. Small

and medium scale industries may be further developed as a consequence.
