25 Pooja Granites & Minerals Black Granite Environment Management Plan 1.1 Granite and its uses Granite is a very common intrusive igneous rock. t is light-colored granulose plutonic rock composed of the minerals feldspar, quartz and biotite & muscovite mica. These minerals make granite white, pink, or light grey. Granite also contains small amounts of dark brown, dark-green, or colour minerals, such as hornblende and biotite mica. Granite is very hard and dense. t can be readily cut into very large blocks and it takes an extremely high polish. The name granite is derived from the Latin word granum, which means grain, an obvious reference to the granular texture of granite. The average density of granite is between 2.65 and 2.75 g/cm 3, with a compressive strength of above 200 Mega Pascal MPa). Uses Granite has been extensively used as a dimension stone and as flooring tiles in public and commercial buildings and monuments. With increasing amounts of acid rain in parts of the world, granite has begun to supplant marble as a monument material, since it is much more durable. Engineers have traditionally used polished granite surfaces to establish a plane of reference, since they are relatively impervious and inflexible. Granite tables are used extensively as a base for optical instruments due to granite's rigidity, high dimensional stability and excellent vibration characteristics. Rough-cut and polished granite is used in buildings, bridges, paving, monuments and many other exterior projects. ndoors, polished granite slabs and tiles are used in countertops, tile floors, stair treads and many other practical and decorative features. Presently, cut and polished granite slabs of 20 mm thickness are preferred for flooring, while tiles of 10 or 12 mm thickness are used for cladding. 1.2 Quarry Location and its surrounding Details of the quarry lease area around 10km radius are presented in table 1.

To protect the workers from exposure to high levels of noise, following measures would be adopted: Provision of protective devices like ear muffs/ear plugs to workers who cannot be isolated from the source of high intensity noise, e.g. blasting; Reducing the exposure time of workers to the higher noise levels by shift management. Smooth blasting techniques, special explosives and silent non-explosive demolishing agent will be used. Muffed blasting and use of Milli-second detonators will help in reducing the noise pollution. 16 Pragathi Labs and Consultants Pvt. Ltd.

40 Pooja Granites & Minerals Black Granite Environment Management Plan 9.2 Control of Ground Vibration & Fly Rock generation n this area the applicant proposes to deploy blasting with less quantity of non-explosives. There will not be any impact on surroundings, as there are less blasting and intended to use low power explosives in this mine. t is a small scale mine and only limited No. of holes are blasted. Ground vibrations due to blasting and its impact on various mine structures, should be studied in details when the mine becomes operational, especially the charge per delay factor. General measures to reduce ground vibration & fly rocks resulting from blasting are given below: Blasting should be carried out in the daytime, as during the night time the sound intensity becomes higher; Blasting should not be carried out when strong winds are blowing towards the inhabited areas; Maximum permissible charge per delay should be decided on the basis of the distance of structure to be protected from the blasting. The number of rows in a blast should not be more than four so that fly rock generation and ground vibration is reduced. Peak particle velocity or ground vibration for safety of nearby structures and residential buildings is 4 mm/sec Standard 100 mm/sec) at 20m distance from the activity; To contain fly rocks, stemming column should not be less than the burden of the hole, and the blasting area should be muffled; Each blast should be carefully planned, checked, and executed under the supervision of a responsible officer. Blasting data/observations should be recorded; and As per the mining plan, in order to ensure slope stabilization, controlled production blasting shall be adopted to avoid tension cracks and back breaks. Such cracks may get filled with water, which reduces the stability of excavated slopes and the angle of slopes Peak Particle Velocity The vibrations are measured as per the assessment criteria given under Bureau of ndian Standard, S: Reaffirmed 2003) - Criteria for Safety and Design of Structures Subject to Underground Blasts. Per the assessment criteria, the value of ground particle velocity may be computed from the following expression: 17 Pragathi Labs and Consultants Pvt. Ltd.

41 Pooja Granites & Minerals Black Granite Environment Management Plan V = K1 [Q 2/3 /R] 1.25 Where V = Particle velocity in mm/sec K1 = Constant which may be normally taken as 880 for soil, weathered or soft rock and 1400 for hard rock. Q = Charge per delay kg), and R = Distance m) from blast point Based on the above equation, the ground particle velocities at different distances 1.5 m, 5 m, 10 m, 20 m, 40 m, 70 m, 100 m, 150 m and 200 m) are calculated considering K1 as 880 for soft rocks and 1400 for hard rocks. As per the Standard, for safety of structures from threshold damage, the ground particle velocity should not exceed the following: Soil, Weathered or Soft rock 70 mm/sec Hard Rock 100 mm/sec The results are presented in the Table 7 below for the maximum charge Table 7 Peak Particle Velocity V) S. No Constant K1) Charge Per Delay Peak Particle Velocity V) mm/second Distance from the Blasting R in meters) Q= 0.08Kg Q= 0.08Kg t is estimated that with Q = 0.08 kg charge per delay shall result in particle velocity of 64.6 mm/sec in soft rock within a distance of 1.5 m, while in the hard rock the particle velocity is mm/sec shall be within 1.5 m. There shall not be any structure with in 1.5 m of the quarry area, and it may be, concluded that the ground vibrations generated by blasting during the mining operations will not likely to effect the structures proposed in the vicinity of > 1.5 m from the point of blast. However the structures are proposed to locate 20m distance from the quarry activity. Concrete structures like office, store etc should not be proposed within the core mine area. These structures otherwise will be affected by the ground vibrations Water Quality Management There is no chemical discharge either from the quarry or from the processing quarry, there will not be water pollution. The proposed quarry workings will not touch the ground water 18 Pragathi Labs and Consultants Pvt. Ltd.

42 Pooja Granites & Minerals Black Granite Environment Management Plan aquifer. Quarrying Operations will be carried out on the slope of the Rocky terrain. The ground water level in this area is 30m BGL and the quarrying will be done on above the surface level. Maximum depth of the quarry will be 5m BGL which is about 12m height from ground level, flooding by ground water is not anticipated. Hence neither ground water table nor the general surface drainage pattern is not affected, hence there will not be water pollution. There will be no change in quality of water. However during rainy months, there is a possibility of wet conditions developing in the working pit this will be minimized, if not altogether eliminated, by adopting simple techniques like digging trenches all round to drain off rainwater and preventing surface run off from entering and flooding working pit. The water from the pits will be pumped by deploying suitable pumps, if and when required, the mine drainage can be effectively managed and the pit kept dry to keep up the production schedule Wastewater generation and treatment n this area water table is at greater depth of 30m BGL and the workings are carried out on top of the hill which is at 12m height. There are no wells or springs in the area. Hence there will not be adverse effect on ground water due to quarrying. The source of wastewater generation from domestic sources is expected to be approximately 0.7 KLD, which will be sent to septic tank followed by soak pit Water Management Following measures will be adopted to mitigate the impact on the water resources: The blasting activities will have to take care on the sinkholes, cracks and fissures in the site activities. During excavation and drilling activities effort must be taken to avoid face collapse at these cracks and fissures. To prevent surface water contamination by oil/grease, leak proof containers shall be used for storage and transportation of oil/grease. The floors of oil/grease handling area will be kept effectively impervious. To prevent degradation and maintain the water quality during rainy season, adequate control measures should be adopted to check the mine run-off into the natural streams. 19 Pragathi Labs and Consultants Pvt.

43 Pooja Granites & Minerals Black Granite Environment Management Plan 11.3 Garland drain and siltation pond A catchment area treatment plan has been developed keeping in mind the results of the hydrology/ hydrogeology of the area and the climate data. As there are no perennial water sources running on or through the site, the mine water discharge is limited to the monsoon season only. To keep water from entering the mine during this period, a garland drain will be developed along the mine s top bench, which will bend to guide the water to the nearest natural surface drain. Garland drain of 70m L x 1m W x 1m D will be constructed. n terms of water quality, good mining practices are planned, additionally the natural state of surrounding areas, should ensure that rain water run-off from the mine does not contain any toxic elements. As the site has no overburden, potential discharge of sediments is quite limited and any residual particles which are washed down will be captured by a sump located at the lowest bench. The sump will be cleaned regularly and discharge water monitored consistently. f required, based on monitoring, an additional catch pit can be located at the main garland drain. The sump proposed in the bottom bench will be designed based on the peak discharge and will be expanded over a period of time to accommodate the increasing quantum of water discharge. Presently, the capacity of the sump is designed to hold the entire quantum of peak discharge water. The garland drain shall be provided surrounding the mine area. Garland drain and siltation pond need to be constructed of appropriate size to arrest silt and sediment flows from soil and mineral dumps. The water so collected will be utilized for watering the mine area, roads, green belt development etc. The drain should be regularly desilted and maintained. The garland drain size, gradient and length) and sump capacity will be designed keeping 50% safety margin over and above the peak sudden rainfall and maximum discharge in the area adjoining the mine site. Sump capacity should also provide adequate retention period to provide proper settling of silt material. The surface water around the mine, and infrastructure will be regularly tested and appropriate control measures adopted in case of any pollutant is detected above the prescribed limits Waste Management plan During five years operations a total rock mass of 9000 m 3 will be excavated and 1080 m 3 of granite blocks will be recoverable from this rock mass and remaining material of about 20 Pragathi Labs and Consultants Pvt.

During the late Archean Era. gneous intrusiohs of alkaline rocks. The northeastern part of the district is a rugged terrain with the hills of Cuddapah basin forming parallel ridges trending NW-SE with interspersed valleys. Rocks of Archean Proterozoic Jurassic -cretaceous, and tertiary -quaternary ages are exposed in the district. The oldest rocks in the north eastern part of the district older metamorphic comprise amphibolities, Homblendetalk- rnica-shist, fuchsite quartzilte, caic -slicate rock, rnarble and banded ferruginous quartzite, these older rnetarnorphic occur on enclaves within peninsular Gneissic complex. The. peninsular gneissic complex comprises a complex assemblage of gneissic varieties and granite rocks which occupy alrnost the entire area of the district.

Laterite cappings occur on Gondwana sand stone large tracks of alluviuln occur along the rnajor streams which are the recent deposits of the district tt c) Local Geology : The area represents a peninsular gneissic complex cornprising grey gneiss with Dolerite intrusions. A Dolerite is intruded through the center of gneiss of the E-W strike direction. No shear zone or fault has been notiped in this area. Since it is hilly formation there are some discontinuities. from one mound to the other. The Dyke is found to occur b.to*'ground at a depth of 5 to 6 mts Ground Level.and to an average width of 30 mts. The Dyke out crop does show large to big lm to 3 rn) size boulders along the strike direction. The float rnaterial i.e srnall Dolerite ooulders cover the slope of the area, towards the contact of the country rock. The sheet folnation is anticipated below proved deposit. The boulders exposed on top of layer area are weathered and developed closed joints. Where as the spacing of the joints are incteasing from second layer and it can be seen in working pits. Dgleiite dyke has fine to medium grain size. t is hard and compact and dark giey to blaqk in colour..the deposit contains good size boulders in the c.entsr of the formation and as big size blocks can be produced for the gang saw cutting and polishing industry.
