2 INTRODUCTION OF THE PROJECT/BACKGROUND INFORMATION

2.1 Identification of Project and Project Proponent

Dunga ki Nangal (M.L No.- 547/2011) Quartzite Mine is the proposed

project for Environmental Clearance, over an area of 1 ha at Village -

Bagawala, Tehsil -Neem ka Thana, District -Sikar, State - Rajasthan. The

Mine lease has been granted in favor of Mr. Sheeshram Gurjar S/o Shri

Biharilal Gurjar R/o village Kali Pahari, Neemrana, Tehsil Bahror, Alwar,

Rajasthan. dated 6th January 2012 for a period of 20 years (Lease Deed for

the same is attached as Annexure-I).

Mining scheme in support of proposed project for a period of 5 years has

been prepared and approved with vide order no. SME/JP/MP 137/14 dated

25-04-14, attached as Annexure II. Certificate by mining engineer showing

that mine lease area does not fall in Aravalli is attached as Annexure III. A

composite map showing mine leases in 500 m radius is attached as

Annexure IV.

2.2 Brief description of nature of project:

The project has been proposed for mining of Quartzite through open cast

semi mechanized method.

2.3 Need for the Project and Its Importance to the Country or Region

Proposed mineral is mainly the basic raw material used in the

manufacturing different types of glass, plate glass, wired, bottled glass,

vacuum flasks, glass shells etc.

Therefore with increasing demand mineral excavation is needed.

2.4 Demands-Supply Gap

The demand for minerals is ever growing with the growth of the Glass

industries in our country. The mineral is used in the manufacturing

different types of glass. The requirement for the mineral is always high in

the nearby cities and towns. Therefore there is always a good demand of the



mineral in the domestic market.

2.5 Imports vs. Indigenous Production

Development needs will be met only through indigenous produced Mineral

against the high cost of imported material.

2.6 Export Possibility

There is no proposal to export the proposed minerals. However,

production from the mine will fulfill the needs of the region and surplus if

any, will be considered for export.

2.7 Domestic/ Export Markets

Domestic Market

Being a shiny mineral, the principal use of this is in all type of glass ware

industries and products.

Export Market

The proposed mining activity is for indigenous consumption only for

glass products etc.

2.8 Employment Generation (Direct and indirect)

The proposed mining activity will provide both direct and indirect

employment to local and nearby villagers.

3.5 Project description with process details:

3.5.1 Method of Mining

Method: The proposed development will be by semi mechanized open cast

method of mining

Working days: Considering holidays and days of weekly rest and days of

peak rains and other unexpected off days, total 300 days are considered as

working days.

Bench height and width: The bench height and width will remain 6 m each
