The location of this mining area is shown on the Administrative and key plan enclosed Vide Plate

No -1 and 1A (Mining Plan) and infrastructure Plan vide Plate No. 12 (Mining Plan).

Topography: The lease is located on the slope of the hillock gently dipping towards west.

The highest elevation in this area is 567.2mRL and the lowest elevation is 490mRL. The general

slope of the lease hold area is between 13° to 22° degree.

Brief Description of the Project:

Geology:

Regional Geology:

Three main geological formations are recognised in Kerala namely, the Archaeans (oldest rocks),

the Warkalli beds of Tertiary Age (Upper Miocene to Pliocene) and the recent deposits

(quarternary). These have North-South alignment.

Crystalline Rocks

Dharwar formation: These occur in the Malabar area only. They are represented by

garnetiferous-ferruginous quartzite, mica, talc, schist etc. and are found exposed in South-East

Kannur and North West of Gudalur.

Champion gneiss: They are seen in South and South-East Kannur and have gold bearing veins.

Rocks appear to be of post peninsular age.

Peninsular gneiss: This is one of the most widespread rock types found in Kerala. The important

minerals that go to make up the rocks are quartz, Feldspars, biotite and garnite. In Cochin area,

they form the most extensive rocks. The types present are biotite and hornblende gneiss. In

Thiruvananthapuram area, the gneiss belongs to the peninsular suite and is made of quarts,

orthoclase, mica and hornblende. Charnockite and leptynites are the most common gneisses in this

area.

Charnockite: A good portion of the Western Ghats is made up of this rock. In the Travancore area

the rocks are well foliated and show intrusive relationship with peninsular gneiss. They are highly

garnetiferous as compared to the charnokites of North Kerala, where garnet is absent.

Closepet granite: Archaean intrusions of post charnockite age are found in the Malabar region.

The two intrusions of biotite granite found in Kalpetta hills and Sultan's Battery, have strong

resemblance to the Dornegneiss of Hazaribagh.


..3

Precambrian System

Basic dykes: These rocks are fresh but fractured and mylonitised. They approach dolerite in

composition and are found to occur in South Malabar area. The basic dykes of Cochin area are

fine to medium grained and free form olivine. The more coarse grained crystalline phases are

represented by gabbros. Several exposures of gabbros are found in Cochin area.

Residual laterites: A narrow zone of lateritised rock exists to the west of crystalline rocks that

constitute the eastern boundary of the State. The rock exposed on the surface in this zone is a

type of laterite, which exhibits characteristics different from those of the laterite, which caps the

Varkalai formation. The laterite preserves the structure of the parent rock and is less compact.

Below the laterite layer is the kaolin layer, the depth of which to the undecomposed rock shows

gradation.

The warkalli formation: This represents the most conspicuous sedimentary bed occurring in

Varkala. They are best exposed at Varkala in the cliffs near the seashore. They consist of clayey

sandstone, white and variegated clay and carbonaceous clay containing thin lenses of lignite.

Most of these areas are lateritised.

Recent deposits: They are mainly developed in Northern parts of Quilon and are made up of

sand and silt. The lacustrine deposits of the backwater tracts of Kerala, the mud banks of the

coast of Alleppey and the marine beach deposits all along the sea shore of Kerala come under

the group. From the economic point of view, the area is important as it contains valuable

mineral sands.

The lease area exhibit charnokites and intrusion of closepet granites.

Local Geology:

The most of the part of area is covered with top soil of about 0.2 to 0.5m thickness, where as

granites are very well exposed in the old working pit.

A geological plan showing the granites and soil cover and the geological sections showing

subsurface geology is prepared on 1:1000 scale and enclosed vide Plate No 4 (Mining Plan).

II. Brief description of nature of the project

The ‘Granite Building Stone Quarry of M/s. Ulikkal Stone Crusher', over an extent of 2.8543

Ha is a granite building stone mining project. The granite building stone is the basic rock in

this area to be excavated by quarrying.

This Granite Building Stone quarry is proposed to be operated by Opencast Semi-Mechanized

Quarrying Method. The mechanized operation of quarry shall use excavators, tippers, rock

breakers, Jack hammer drilling and blasting. The excavated material shall be crushed in the

crushers located outside the quarry lease area.

The maximum production capacity proposed in this area is 260,591 tonnes per annum building

stone of size -150mm.

The quarrying operation shall provide 60 direct & equal number of indirect employment to

local people.

III. Need for the project and its importance to the country and or region.

The basic objective of the project is to have effective utilization of granite stone as a building

material in this region and state. The spur in infrastructure development and construction

industry has enhanced the demand of granite building stone in last 10 years.

Mainly infrastructure projects – like roads, highways, railways, bridges, buildings, township,

etc., have raised the demand of building material. Building stone quarry not only provides the

building material but also employment and economic growth of the region that ultimately

enhance the socio-economic status of the people of the region and the state. The mining


..7

activities shall provide socio-economic benefits to the local population with direct & indirect

employment opportunities. The project also contributes to the regional and financial benefits in

the form of Royalty, Cess, Taxes, DMF etc.

IV. Demand-Supply Gap.

Granite Building stone is an important component of the construction activities for

infrastructure development. The demand for granite building stone is increasing along with the

increase in infrastructure and construction activities in Kerala. This quarry can produce max

260,591 tonnes of building stone annually and the demand of building stone by various

industries can be partly fulfilled by this project. During last four years there is a sudden

increase in the Real estate & Port development activities which has further enhanced the

demand for building stone, hence, there is heavy requirement of granite building stone to meet

the demand supply chain.

V. Imports Vs Indigenous production

The requirements of granite building stone in infrastructure industry is huge where as the

prices of granite are relatively low. The import or export of the same is not feasible due to

heavy transportation cost. The granite building stone of size -150mm shall be transported / sold

to the crusher outside the quarry lease, where it shall be sized and sold to the local market for

infrastructure development.

VI. Export possibility.

The price of the granite is very low and the transportation cost is very high. Hence there are no

export possibilities of the same.

VII. Domestic/Export markets.

The granite building stone of size -150mm shall be transported / sold to the crusher outside the

quarry lease, where it shall be sized and sold to the local market for infrastructure

development, real estate builders, contractors, etc. and to the nearby vendors for government

infrastructure projects. It is not viable to export this material. However, there is huge demand

for the granite building stone in the domestic market.

VIII.Employment Generation (Direct and Indirect) due to the project.
