▪
The objectives of the plantation are a combination of the
following:-
✓The Integrated garden with fruit bearing trees and Medicinal
Plants is developed with the Help of Auroville Team which
attracts both birds and animals which help the environment
suitable for biodiversity.
✓ To utilize fruit bearing species that can provide an income
for people living in the local area.
✓To regain the soil nutrients on the reclaimed area.
✓ To plant species that will attract birds and insects to the
site which leads to Biodiversity.
✓ To have some plantation of herbal species.
✓ Around the viewing area to utilize ornamental species, to
receive visitors to the area.

Miyawaki Method of plantation. This
method is planting a number of
different types of trees close together
in a small pit. By closely planting
many random trees close together in asmall area enriches the green cover
and the richness of the land. It
improves ecosystem including the
absorption of carbon di oxide and also
protection of soil from erosion inspiteof mining operation in the close
proximity. It enables small soil animal
and birds to restore quickly. The trees
reach 4 meters after 5 years, 8 meters
in 10 years, 20 meters in 20 years; theresult is a diversified forest that is
allowed to grow naturally after 3 years.

Discharge of mine water:
▪ Creation of sump for collecting mine water and settlement
of solids
▪ De watering the sump water and drains through settling
tank provided in the surface
▪ Allowing the clean water to the near by nalla/ Pond
through channel which is being used by village habitants
and also used for green belt development.
▪ Desiltation from sump and settling tank at periodical
intervals

RECLAMATION AND REHABILITATION IN PUDUPALAYAM NORTH MINE
▪ After exhaustion of mineral, we are carrying out
Reclamation and Rehabilitation in a phased manner.
▪In the first Phase, we have completed 3.86.0 Hectares the
Reclamation and Rehabilitation on the North Eastern corner
of the Mine in which around 6000 Nos. of fruit bearing and
Non- Fruit bearing plants are planted on it.
▪Apart from the above, Herbal Garden also developed on the
Phase – I Restored area.
▪More over the second Phase on the Northern side of Mining
Lease area is concentrated for II Phase Reclamation area
covering 7.76.0 hectares.

REPLICABILITY OF THE IDEA IMPLEMENTED WITHIN SECTOR OUTISDE SECTOR
▪
➢Mining Activity often leads to environmental problems like
land degradation in open cast mining, deforestation,
atmospheric pollution, soil erosion due to disposal of solid
wastes like overburden, extraction of minerals and so on; all
affecting the ecological balance of the area.
➢The environmental management plan is provided for
controlling the environmental damage, restoration of mined
out area and planting of trees in a systematic and phased
manner.
➢Reclamation and Afforestation should proceed concurrently
with mineral extraction.
➢Ultimately, the concept is to bring back the ecological
stability if not better for some end use even before the mining
operation is completed.

Blending Practices Annexure -2
✓As a part of Mineral Conservation, we proposed to consume
the Material on ROM(run off Mine) basis.
✓ The top and bottom contact zone (UPTO 4M) low grade
material generated in the mine pit will be transported to the
Factory site and separately stacked in the low grade stock
yard.
✓Further the material will be sent to the low grade hopper
and blended with the High grade hopper in order to meet the
Cement Grade Quality.
✓This blending of High grade with Low grade limestone also
enables us to increase the life of the plant / mine.
