FOR
NAGAMANGALAM GREY GRANITE (PARADISO) MINE
(UNDER RULE 12 OF GCDR 1999)
@@@@@
PART– I
1.0 REVIEW OF MINING PLAN
The Mining Scheme has been prepared in respect of Grey Granite Quarry in
S.F. No. 629(PART) Extent. 5.00.0 Acres. of Nagamangalam Village, Denkanikottai Taluk,
Krishnagiri District, for which M/s. Global Trading Company, No.5, 3rd Floor, Rosy Tower,
No-7, Nungambakkam High Road, Chennai – 600 034 has a mining lease vide Government
Order (3D).No.96 Industries (MME-2) Department dated 02.05.1995 for Ten years and the
lease deed was executed on 19.05.1995.
The period of lease is for 10 years upto 18.05.2005.
The Mining Plan was approved by Commissioner of Geology and Mining, Guindy,
Chennai vide letter No. 9913/MM2/2002 dated 31.12.2002.
The lessee has preferred an application submitted on dated 03.05.2005, 16.12.2005
for renewal and the same is pending. Now mine was working in the High Court Order W.P.
Miscellaneous Petition. Nos. 16373 & 16374 of 2005 in W.P. Nos. 15076 & 15077 of 2005
and W.P. Miscellaneous Petition. No. 143101 of 2005 in W.P. No. 40190 of 2005. Please refer
Annexure-VII-A & B.
The lessee has not submitted the Scheme of mining for the next One year, before 120
days the expiry of the previous Mining Plan time, because of lack of demand, non-availability
of labour & financially crisis.
The Lessee M/S. Global Trading Company is private. They have in the field of granite
mining for the last Twenty Years. They have adequate knowledge and skill on quarrying and
export of dimensional granite blocks(rough) to various countries as well as to have a capacity
to retain the domestic market. He applied to the State Government for grant of mining lease
over an extent of 5.00.0 Acres in S.F. Nos. 629(PART) in Nagamangalam Village,
Denkanikottai Taluk, Krishnagiri District to quarry granite blocks.
The Grey Granite deposits in Nagamangalam , Jagadevipalyam Chandarapalli &
Sulaamalai areas of Denkanikottai Taluk, Krishnagiri District, Tamil Nadu is commercially
called as PARADISO, a type of Grey Granite with wave pattern of pink\violet/white minerals
with black minerals. Sometimes black patches as a secretions (Xenolith) cause for major
rejection in addition to natural cracks. It is a migmatised rock formation with fresh pink
minerals. Dimensional cutting and polishing of these type of hard and compact rocks exhibits
an attractive alternative bands of gray and pink minerals with wave patterns.

About Granite …………
Since time immemorial stones have been extensively used for building historic

temples, places and monuments, World over races and countries have always accepted

stones in all forms for daily use and for external use. For Indians stone is part of our culture,

history and civilization. The numerous temples in India, particularly in South India have been

built of granite blocks which have stood the test of time over several centuries.

The over lasting freshness, beauty, elegance, toughness, hardness, durability and co-

existence with ecology and nature have attracted man to stone. Stone is number one anti-

pollutant natural product to with stand the modern industrial calamities like acidity and

alkalinity. The World still wonders at the mammoth stone marvels of the wonders of the

World. To-day the modern Stone Age has emerged in utilizing many types of stones in

monumental, commercial and residential buildings.

Granites are a term used commonly for igneous rocks which are widely used as

building material. Although granite occurs widely throughout the World, there is considerable

world trade in this commodity due to preference of buyers for a particular type of granite

having special colour, dimensions, texture and above all its glossy finish, durability, aesthetic

value and its stable property against vagaries of weather.

There are more than 300 known varieties of stones in the World. From the Grey

Granites of Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Tamilnadu, India has emerged to-day with more

than 60 varieties of different coloured stones. The a bony granite of Sweden, petit granite of

Belgium, Impala Black of South Africa, Luna Pearl from Sardinia, Porrinho Pin of Spain,

Balmoral Red of Finland, Grey and Pink varieties of China, Black and Pin varieties of India are

well known in the market. To-day India markets only high quality granites in many colours

except a few multi-colours which are moving in bulk quantities.

The unknown stone from a remote village of our country adorns a modern building or

adorns a cemetery in a metropolis in a highly developed country.

GREY GRANITE MINE
1.2. Particulars of Approval of Mining Plan under MCR (OR) MCDR:
(Indicate Approval No. and Date)
The Mining Plan was approved by Commissioner of Geology and Mining, Guindy,
Chennai vide letter No. 9913/MM2/2002 dated 31.12.2002.
The mining lease was granted in Government Order (3D). No. 96 Industries (MME-2)
Department dated 02.05.1995 for Ten years and the lease deed was executed on 19.05.1995.
The lessee is submitting the First Scheme of Mining now.
1.3. Date of Commencement of Mining Operations
The Mining Lease was executed on 19.05.1995. After the execution of Mining lease,
the Mining operation was started immediately. The exploitation of Grey Granite was taken up
after removal of topsoil and some weathered gneissic rocks. The mining work was carried out
in accordance with provision of the mining plan approved by Commissioner of Geology and
Mining, Chennai.

3
1.4. (a). Deficiencies, if any, that existed in the approved mining plan to be taken
note of and rectified by incorporating suitable proposals for implementation in the
scheme of mining.
There have been no deficiencies noticed in the quarrying area.
1.4.(b). Review of Compliance position of salient features of mining plan on
chapter wise basis bringing out marked deviations, if any and justifications /
reasons thereof. Item to be covered may include exploration, mine development,
exploitation, afforestation programme, reclamation and rehabilitation, control of
dust, noise and ground vibration and any other significant feature.

(1) Exploration:
During the mining plan period, the Geologist took the recovery percentage as 10%
and the rock type was the natural one, except a thin weathered layer and soil cover, without
disturbances on surface. However, during the mining operation of the quarry, the recovery
percentage of Grey Granite was very poor and this area requires more development work.
We expected only 3.0m top soil and Weathered Granite but at the time of production it was
observed that it was reached around 4-5m in most of the in the quarry. Below the topsoil,
weathered gneissic rock has been noticed in the quarrying operation. After the removal
weathered portion of gneissic rock, the saleable granitic part is reached.

(2) Mine Development:

Already two pits were existing near settle All side of Lease boundary. But during mine
plan period, of last 5 years, the development and production was taken from All side of lease
boundary. The Existing Pit Dimensions are given below:

PIT-I PIT-II PIT-III PIT-IV

Length (m) (aver.) 27.0 90.0 160.0 15.0
Width (m) (aver.) 24.0 52.0 37.0 10.0
Depth (m) (aver.) 16.0 17.0 16.0 3.0

The present workings have reached a maximum depth of nearly 17.0m (average).
Development of the pits has been done only in the areas where the Granite blocks could be
easily mined. The Lessee considering the texture and color of this material, and in anticipation
of the maintaining the percentage of recovery, the proposed mine development in the
ensuing Four Years period of mining scheme is furnished in the year wise production and
development plans as shown in Annexure-II and in Plate No V & V-A.

(3) Exploitation (Production)
Already the production of Grey Granite from 01.04.2008 to 31.03.2015 was
4610.951m3.
The actual quantum of production achieved as against the proposals laid down in the
Submission of mining plan letter dated 31.12.2002, is tabulated as below:

The production and development proposals for the ensuing Four Years period of
scheme of mining is prepared in anticipation to the improvement of enquiries from the buyers
for this Grey Granite, is furnished in Annexure-II as shown in Plate No.V.

(4) Afforestation
As mentioned in the approved mining plan, 20 , Neem, Coconut, Tamarind & Mango
trees per year were planted. The survival rate is less than 80% due to scarcity of rainfall. In
the ensuing Four Years period 40 Neem trees per annum is proposed to be planted.

(5) Mine Reclamation

As proposed in the mining plan, the mine - pit will be utilized as a water reservoir after
the mining activities are over.

(6) Control of dust, noise and ground violations:

The drilling and blasting parameters are in correlation with the proposals laid down in
the approved mining plan. Shallow holes of 32mm dia. holes are drilled and the depth of hole
will be generally about 1.0m. Water sprinkled for suppression of air borne dust on Mine
haulage roads and waste dumps on regular intervals by water tankers. Drilling of blast holes
will be always under wet condition to prevent flying of dust. In the unloading point of Tippers,
water was sprinkled and further the drillers were provided with respirators in accordance with
mines regulations.

5
 Conventional low explosives were used. Since the dimensional stones, which are
needed to be without internal cracks, high explosives were not used. The scale of blasting
was however very less considering the rate of production. Muffle blasting was not necessary
as the area was free from dwelling houses, public utilities etc., Now wire saw machine is
being utilized for primary cutting to liberate the required sizes of block from the parent rock
The secondary splitting of the blocks been done by pressure-split method with the help of
feather and wedges. In view of above, there is no adverse effect on dust, noise and ground
vibration by mining activities.

1.4. (c). Review of the compliance position of conditions and stipulations imposed,
if any, while approving the mining plan. In case of non-compliance / partial
compliance, detailed justification reasons thereof may be furnished along with
proposal for compliance in the ensuing period.
The mining plan for the area under reference has been approved with conditions likes
to comply with the provisions of GCDR Act 1999 on the rules framed there under.
M/S. GLOBAL TRADING COMPANY has been generally carried out its mining operations in
conformity with the above acts and rules.

1.4. (d). Review of compliance of violations pointed out after inspections made
under MCDR, 1988 during last 5 years. The position emerging out of the yearly
review of the mining plan while checking up implementation of the mining plans in
the field shall also be taken note of at this stage.
Not Applicable.

1.4. (e). Any other points requiring attention in the interest of proper mine design,
development and conservation and environment and ecology of the area.
The present as well as the proposed mine working is so designed in such a way mainly
keeping in view of conservation of mineral, afforestation of environment, and ecology of the
mine area.

3.0. GEOLOGY & RESERVES

3.1.(a) Physiographic:
The Area where the quarry is situated is an undulating terrain about 900m above
MSL. Top Soil, red colour is capping to a depth of 1-2m on the lower side of the area with few
Mango trees.
Water table is found at a depth of 50m, in summer and at 40m in rainy season. The
area receives rain fall of about 600 to 700 mm/per annum and the rainy period is mainly from
Oct – Jan during North East monsoon. The summer is hot with maximum temperature up to
43°c. The area experiences moderate climate and cold during rainy seasons. The average
rainfall 700 mm per annum.

7
 The top soil is to a thickness of about 2.0m and it is fertile. It is a dry land and is
found to be unfit even for seasonal cultivation. In some areas agriculture is done with lift
irrigation. The main crops are coconut, ground nut, maize, cereals etc., There are no
National parks, Historical monuments, place of public interest, place of worship, Wild life
Sanctuary etc.

3.1(b) GEOLOGY
a. Regional Geology:
Krishnagiri District is comprised of Archaean peninsular gneisses such as Granite
gneisses, Hornblende gneisses, Biotite gneisses and migmatites, dolerites and are intruded by
younger formations like pegmatite and quartz veins. The peninsular gneisses/ migmatite
consists of biotite mica, plagioclase and orthoclase feldspar and quartz and are found as heet
rocks running to several kms from NNE-SSW as a massive rock formation.

The order of superposition of geological sequence are given as under,

Description:
Top Soil Morum (2.0m Thick) - Recent Age
Pegmatite and Quartzveins - Archaean Age
Dolerite Dyke - Archaean Age
Peninsular Gneisses and Migmatites- Archaean Age (Kolar Group)
Biotite Gneisses - Archaean Complex
The Regional rocks mostly composed of quartz, plagioclase feldspar, orthoclase
feldspar and accessories like mica.

b) Geology of the Area

The area of Mining lease comprised of migmatite, a type of Grey Granite. Its mineral
constituents are biotite, Quartz, Orthocalse Feldspar and plagioclase feldspar. The biotite is
fine grained and othis minerals are medium grained. The graphic texture and intergrowth of
quartz anf feldspar indicates that younger intrusive were invaded into the pre-existing country
rock, which preferably would have been a biotite gneisse (peninsular Gneisses), Flowage
structure and texture of rock, indicates deep seated metamorphism at high temperature and
pressure.
Xenolith of schistose rock is also found in the adjacent peninsular Gneisses which
indicates assimilation of older rocks by the younger intrusive. These for, it is clear from the
regional flow structure and texture of Xenolith, the rock would be a type of Migmatite. Since
the fine grained biotite is rich in assemblages shows a grey shade to the Granite.

8
 The pinkish colour of the rock is due to rich fresh orthoclase feldspar. Dimensional
cutting and polishing of these type of hard and compact rocks exhibits an attractive pinkish
and grey shades of background with attractive Wave Patterns.
It is a part of Peninsular Gneisses migmatised by younger intrusive. It is commercially
called as Paradiso by the buyers in view of its wave pattern of accessory minerals.
The rock is hard, compact and heet in nature so as to cut required sizes of blocks. The
mineral constituents of the rock mass shall be about orthoclase feldspar 40%, Quartz roughly
25%, Plagioclase feldspar 25%, mica 15% and Othiss 5%
The order of geological sequence are,
Description: Description:
Top Soil-Red Soil-2.0m thick Recent
Biotite rich Migmatite (Grey Granite) Archaean
Biotite Gneisses (Peninsular Gneisses) Archaean
The strike of the granite body is trending in NE to SW direction and dips vertically. The
regional trend is shown in the Geological Plan.

3.2. Details of Exploration already carried out if any:

This Grey Granite quarry is in operation for last 7 Years and More than 4610.951M3
Grey Granites blocks of have been removed and exported in raw form as well as in processed
form (Tiles) till now. There are few Grey Granite quarries in operation in the nearby areas.
Hence, there is no need of further exploration in this area.

a. Estimation of Reserves:
The Geological and Recoverable reserves are estimated by cross sectional method up
to a depth of 36 mts, as the Grey Granite. Plans and Sections have been drawn with a scale
of 1:1000 and 1:500 respectively.

3.3. Category-wise (Proved, Probable and Possible) Reserves Estimated in the

earlier mining plan with grades.

12
 The geological reserves were calculated and estimated as 13170m3. The Mineable
reserve were calculated as 6050m3. Actually the Geological and Mineable reserves was
calculated by applying recovery percentage of 10% and depth is taken up to only 18 mts.

3.4. Depletion of Reserves:

The geological reserves from at the time of presentation of mining plan were
13170m3 and the mineable reserve was 6050m3. The depletion of reserves during the
mining plan period was 3550m3, the production was achieved, and the production quantity is
4610.951m3 .i.e. (from 2008-09 to 2014-15). For the ensuing mining scheme period, the
recovery percentage is calculated as 20% based on the practical experience gained in this
quarry. The granite occurring immediately after the top soil and weathered zone was full of
cracks and joints. So only the recovery percentage of production was very poor in the first
and second year of Mining plan period. After the development activities, it shows less cracks
and it might expect good recovery percentage.
3.5. Additional reserves established category wise (with basis and parameters
considered).
There will be mentioned additional reserves in this period. Please refer Annexure I and
Annexure III.
3.6. Category-wise updated reserves with grade (indicate and use grade with
analysis) as well as marginal grades based on above.

4.0. CONCEPTUAL MINING PLAN

13
4.1. Time frame of completion of mineral exploration program in leasehold
areas. Give broad description identifying potential areas to be covered in
the given time frame.
The mining operation has been started immediately after the execution of Mining
lease. The production was achieved 10% of the estimated total mineable reserves in the
mining plan period.
Since the mine has been taken to the depth of 5.0m in the East and Southern side of
Lease boundary. The persistence of block granite is predicted upto 17.0m depth and the
configuration of the Grey Granite deposit is fairly known. Hence no exploration is proposed.
4.2. Whether ultimate pit limit has been determined and demarcated on surface
and geological plans.
The ultimate pit limit of the mine has been determined and demarcated in the
respective plan i.e., conceptual mining plan (Refer Plate [Link]).

4.3. Whether the site(s) for disposal of waste rock and unsalable ores has/have
been examined for adequacy of land and suitability of long-term use in the
event of continuation of mining activity.
As the waste generated during the mining practice is only the granite rejects and the
non- recoverable/un-sized boulders, nibbles etc, their accommodation in the plain land is
easier. The area for disposal of waste rock has been identified in the country rock area on the
Backfilling to the Northern Side of the lease area. There removal of over burden constitutes a
top soil and a weathered layer, nibbles of different sizes, angularity etc. The unsold defective
blocks are kept within the boundary on the country rock area. The waste dump has been
denoted in the plate No: V, VII.

4.4. Whether back filling of pit(s) after recovery of ore / mineral upto techno-
economically feasible depth envisaged. If so, describe the broad features of
the proposal.
The depth persistence of the deposit may likely to be continued for little downward, it
is proposed not to backfill the mine – pit in this scheme period.
Back filling will be proposed in the conceptual stage of mining.

4.5. Post mining land use envisaged.

14
 At the end of mining activities over, the mine pit may be utilized as a water reservoir
(or) used for agriculture purpose.

5.7. MINE DRAINAGE:

a. Depth of Water table:

The ground water table is reported as 50m below ground level in nearby wells of this
area. Now, the present quarry shall be proposed above the water table and hence, quarrying
may not affect the ground water.

17
b. Arrangement and Places where the mine water is finally proposed to be
discharged:
The ground water may not rise immediately in this type of mining. However, the rain
water percolation and collection of water from the seepage shall be less than 300 lpm and it
shall be pumped about periodically by a stand by diesel powered Centrifugal pump motivated
with 7.5 H.P. Motor. The quality of water is potable and it is not contaminated with any
hazardous things.

6.0. HANDLING OF WASTE / SUB-GRADE MATERIAL

As the waste generated during the mining practice is only the granite rejects and the
non- recoverable/un-sized boulders, nibbles etc, their accommodation in the plain land is
easier. The area for disposal of waste rock has been identified in the country rock area on the
Backfilling to the Northern Side of the lease area. There removal of over burden constitutes a
top soil and a weathered layer, nibbles of different sizes, angularity etc. The unsold defective
blocks are kept within the boundary on the country rock area. The waste dump has been
denoted in the plate No: V, VII.

6.1. Rate of yearly generation of wastes and proposals for disposal of waste for
Next Four Years. (Indicate sequence of dumping with necessary plans and

6.1.1. Build up of dumps from year to year to be shown in yearly plans and
sections with description of the method & manner of disposal of waste rock,
designed capacity & height of individual dumps and precautions envisaged
for confinement of the dumps together with design details of the protective
works.
As the waste generated during the mining practice is only the granite rejects and the
non- recoverable/un-sized boulders, nibbles etc, their accommodation in the plain land is
easier.
The area for disposal of waste rock has been identified in the country rock area on
the Backfilling to the Northern Side of the lease area. There removal of over burden
constitutes small amount of soil and thin weathered layer. The unsold defective blocks are
kept within the boundary on the country rock area. The waste dump has been denoted in the
plate No: V, VII. The fine waste could be arranged that they be in confinement to the core
portion whereas the boulders on periphery portion. The dumps will be maintained not
exceeding 5m heights.

6.2. Rate of yearly generation of sub-grade mineral with reference to threshold

values and proposals for stacking for next Four Years, (submit necessary
plans / sections). (In case variations from the recommended threshold
values of IBM, please give adequate justification and reasons).
There is no recovery of sub-grade mineral. Though the Grey Granite body exhibits a
medium to wide range of differentiation in the color and texture, sub-gradation is not been
done. However such materials, which were inspected and unapproved are stacked separately
for future sale. Gradation into different quality is not necessary in this deposit due to the
uniformity in the sense of rock type within the deposit.

6.3. Quantity and grade of sub-grade material available at the mine as on date
duly supported by plans & sections and descriptive statement inclusive of
the precautions adopted for storage.
Not applicable.

7.0 USES OF MINERALS

7.1. Products and Application areas of Granites :
Broadly there are six categories of granite products – rough blocks, slabs, panels, tiles,
monuments and others.
Granites are most adoptable as interior veneers in sky scrapers. In architecture,
granites are mostly used for artistic veneers as they enrich other aspects of buildings.

19
Slabs, Panels, Tiles and Monuments:
Granite in the form of slabs of various sizes is mainly used in building monumental
institutions, commercial and residential buildings.
Slabs :
A semi finished block of rectangular size with one side polished and the other outside
sawn and thickness in the range of 20mm upto 20 cm. are used for interior wall panels in the
building.
Panels:
Panels are used for covering the interior surface of the buildings, as tabletops and as
interior wall paneling. Size of panel range from 50 cms x 100 cms upto 100 cms x 100 cms
and thickness correspondingly varying from 20mm to 50mm.
Tiles:
Granite tiles are used as flooring material and also for wall cladding – most preferred
size is 30 x 30 sq. cms with 10mm thickness though sizes vary within the range 15 x 10
[Link] and 60 x 60 sq. cms. Tolerance requirement in the international market on thickness
is generally 0.1 cm to 0.2 cm.

Monuments:
Indian Grey Granite is being exported in finished / semi-finished form for making
monuments and tomb-stones for graveyards. Granite with good polish are mostly selected
for making memorials ranging from simple markers and head stones to elaborate monuments
and mausoleums. Some export of red granite monuments have also begun recently.
Other Uses:
In India granite is used as kitchen platform, kitchen sink, nameplates, foundation /
inaugural stones etc., Granites ashtrays; flower vases and other art pieces which have both
domestic and export markets.

Other uses for dressed or cuter shaped forms of different sizes are as flagging stones
in the form of flat slabs or rectangular or irregular shapes over steps, walk ways, parks and
terraces, parking streets and highways or other traffic areas with rectangular blocks.

Less known is the fact, that granites find important applications in the engineering
fields as they possess high stability, non-denting and wear resistance qualities. These
engineering grade granites are used in the construction of bridges, piers, sea and river walls,
dams and related structures, bridges, super structures, grade separations and retaining walls.

Granites are often used for the manufacture of inspection equipment, like surface
plates, parallels, cubes, squares, straight edges, measuring prisms, guide ways of precision
instruments and other metrological aids such as in weight measurements.

20
7.2. Changes proposed in the use of mineral, if any, with reasons
No change is proposed in the use of minerals as the mineral is being sold out in raw
form as per the buyer’s requirement.

7.3. Changes in the specification, if any, imposed by the user industries and / or
specifications required in the case of new user industries, if any, to be
given.
As mentioned above there is no specification imposed by the user industries. Because
the buyers prefer the bigger size blocks called as Gang saw.

7.4. Efforts made for utilization of the sub-grade mineral including fines.
As such there is no sub-grade mineral, there is no separate stacking of such wastes.

8.0. MINERAL BENEFICIATION

8.1. Results of any beneficiation investigations conducted and changes made in
existing mineral beneficiation plant and tailing disposals, if any, with
benefits expected (necessary) flow sheet and tailing dam designs etc. to be
submitted as applicable).
Not Applicable.

8.2. Beneficiation test done, if any, on sub-grade mineral including fines and
proposals for installation of new or additional beneficiation facility, if any
(furnish process details in brief along with expected tailings loss).
The production of granite dimensional stones involving splitting of rock mass of
considerable volume from the parent sheet rock carefully avoiding any kind of damage in the
form of cracks, followed by “Secondary Splitting” into required size involves long hole drilling
upto the bottom of the separated block and mild blasting along the required plans.
The blocks splitter as above are toppled and removed from the pit, removing the
defective portions and dressing into the dimensional blocks are done manually using feather
and wedges and chiseling respectively the laborers who are skilled in this work, which is
constantly supervised by experienced mining geologists. Nowadays modern techniques of
wire- saw machines have been deployed for liberation of the rock from the parental rock,
sometimes to the required sizes also.

The water table is less than 50m during summer and 40m during rainy seasons. The
average rainfall is around 700 mm. There is no lake, reservoir or river near the area.
Villagers use open well water for drinking and other domestic purposes for ages
without any adverse health effects. However drinking water will be supplied from the public
water supply system from nearby hamlets. There is no wild life or bird sanctuary or reserve
or any protected or social forests close to the area.
23
Air-Quality:
There will be generation of only dust during drilling and blasting. No heavy earth
moving machinery is conducted. Since this is an open area, the impact on air quality will be
to the minimum. The air is fresh and unpolluted. Even when the quarry is in operation,
because of its small size, the air will not get polluted. The mine roads will be sprinkled with
water before starting the transportation of mineral and wastes to minimize air pollution.
Noise Level:
Drilling, Blasting, loading, hauling and lifting equipment etc., are bound to produce
certain level of noise which will be bring down to acceptable norms.
