9.0 ANALYSIS OF PROPOSAL

Project will create direct & indirect employment opportunities within the

surrounding region. Unit will use good faith efforts to employ local

people from the nearby villages depending upon the availability of

skilled & un-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
