DISTRICT BAGALKOT
As per Gazette notification of 15th January 2016 of Ministry of Environment, Forest and
Climate Change a Survey shall be carried out by the State Environment Impact Assessment
Authority (SEIAA) with assistance of irrigation department, Drainage department, Forest
department, Mining department and Revenue department in the district for preparation of
District Survey Report as per the sustainable Sand mining guidelines to ensure identification
of areas of aggradations or deposition where mining can be allowed; and identification of
areas of erosion and proximity to infrastructural structures and installations where mining
should be prohibited and calculation of annual rate of replenishment and allowing time for
replenishment after mining in that area. Every efforts have been made to cover sand mining
locations, areas & overview of Mining activity in the district with all it's relevant features
pertaining to geology & mineral wealth in replenish-able and non-replenish-able areas of
rivers, stream and other sand sources. The mineral potential is calculated based on field
investigation & geology of the catchment area of the river or streams. Also as per the site
conditions and locations, depth of minable mineral is defined. The area for removal of the
mineral in a river or stream is decided depending on geomorphology & other factors, it can
be 50% to 60% of the area of a particular river or stream. Other constituents like clay and silt
are excluded as waste while calculating the mineral potential of particular river or stream.
This District Survey Report shall form the basis for application for environment clearance,
preparation of reports and appraisal of projects. The report shall be updated once every five
years.
Ordinary sand other than sand use for prescribed purposes and some other minerals have been
specified as minor mineral in Sec 3(E) of The Mines and Minerals ( Development and
Regulation) Act, 1957. The Central Government in addition to some other minor minerals
have also declared the ordinary earth (used for filling or leveling purposes in construction or
embankments, roads, railways and buildings) and brick earth as the minor minerals. The
Government of Punjab vide notification no. S.O.22/P.A.9/1996/S.3/2008 dated 28.03.2008
have acquired the rights of ordinary clay, ordinary sand other than sand use for prescribed
purposes, brick earth and ordinary earth (used for filling or leveling purposes in construction
or embankments, roads, railways and buildings) in addition to some other minor minerals..1. INTRODUCTION :- Bāgalkot district is an administrative district in the Indian state of Karnataka. The district headquarters is located in the town of Bagalkote. The district is located in northern Karnataka and borders Belgaum, Gadag, Koppal, Raichur and Bijapur. The new Bagalkote district was carved out of Bijapur in 1997 via Government of Karnataka directive Notification RD 42 LRD 87 Part III.[1] The bifurcated Bagalkote district consists of eight taluks — Badami, Bagalkote, Bilagi, RabkaviBanhatti, Hunagund, Ilkal, Jamakhandi and Mudhol.[2] Historically, Badami which is part of Bagalkote was the capital of the Chalukyan Empire of South India under Pulakeshin I, who conquered the district in 550 CE. Bagalkot's Badami taluk remained the seat of the throne of the Chalukyas from 550 CE — 753 CE, when Chalukya king Kirtivarman II was overthrown by the Rashtrakutas. Remnants of Chalukyan art and architecture are important tourist attractions in Bagalkote. Pattadakallu has many UNESCO World Heritage temples built by Vikramaditya II, while Aihole, which lies on the banks of the Malaprabha River, is an important temple town with over 140 temples belonging to both the early and later Chalukya times. The cave temples of Badami Cave Temples and the Jain temples of Rashtrakutas at Lokapura and Bilgi are also famous. Cottage industries occupy a predominant position in Bagalkote. The district is popular for its silk and handloom industries. Ghataprabha River, Malaprabha River and Krishna River flow through the district. Koodalasangama lies at the point of confluence of rivers Krishna and Malaprabha. Like most districts in India, Bagalkote is headed by a Deputy Commissioner, with various Tahalsidars heading individual taluks in the district. The Samadhi of 12th-century social reformist Basavanna, known for his crusade against caste exploitation, is located in Koodalasangama, a town in the taluk of Hungund.
2. PHYSICAL FEATURES & GEOGRAPHICAL AREA:
The district of Bagalkot is situated entirely on the North Karnataka Plateau, which is part of
the larger Deccan Plateau. Located in north-central Karnataka, Bagalkot is surrounded
by Belgaum District to the west, Bijapur District and Gulbarga District to the north and north-
east, Raichur District to the east and Koppal District, Gadag District and Dharwad District to
the south-east, south and south-west respectively. It is positioned at 16°12′N 75°45′E and
covers an area of 6593 km². Bagalkot district has seven taluks —
Bagalkot, Badami, Hunagunda, Mudhol, Jamkhandi, Bilgi, and Mahalingpur.[2] The average
elevation in this area reaches approximately 610 m. The climate is warm and dry throughout
the year and rainfall is scarce. Bagalkot district receives the lowest rainfall annually in
Karnataka. The average rainfall in the region is approximately 318 mm annually.[10] The
months of September and December account for about 52% of the total annual rainfall.
Bagalkot is devoid of large canopy tree vegetation; the region is semi-arid. The Krishna
River, Ghataprabha River and Malaprabha River flow through the region but are
non perennial. Soil in the area can be categorised as either the majority black or
minority red.[6] Black soil retains moisture and is often used for the cultivation
of cotton. Rabi and jowar are primarily cultivated in Bagalkot, as are groundnut,
cotton, maize, bajra, wheat, sugarcane and tobacco.[11] The district is also rich in mineral
wealth. The village of Kaladgi, located 24 km from the town of Bagalkot,
harbours copper. Iron ore also exists in the southern part of the district. Like much of
Karnataka, the gneiss is the most common rock family. Common rock types in the region
include greenstone, quartzite, sandstone and limestone. The dry climate makes the region
susceptible to drought and crop failure. Bagalkot has not been affected by
major seismic activity due to it being located in the stable Zone II.

4.RIVER SYSTEM Malaprabha River originates in the Sahyadri mountains at an altitude of 792.4 metres (2,600 ft) at Kanakumbi village 16 km (9.9 mi) west of Jamboti village, Khanapur taluka, Belgaum District, Karnataka. At the origin of the Malaprabha is an ancient temple dedicated to Shree Mauli Devi. The temple is in R.S. No. 127 of Kankumbi.[2] Malaprabha birthplace is a pilgrimage center with mythological origins. A symbol in rock carved by hand near the source of the river Malaprabha depicts the origin of the river for the purpose of safety showered for the well being of humankind. It is a source of highly stable mineral water. Presence of discontinuities has major effects on properties of contours at source of river. Permeability is dependent on orientation of the region. Malaprabha flows a distance of 304 km (189 mi) from Kanakumbi-Khanapur-Soundatti (Malaprabha Dam)-Nargund-Pattadkal-Kudalasangam before joining river Krishna at an altitude of 488 metres (1,601 ft) at Kudala Sangama in Bagalkot district. The Ghataprabha river is an important right-bank tributary of the Krishna River and flows eastward for a distance of 283 kilometers before its confluence with the Krishna River at Almatti. The river basin is 8,829 square kilometers wide and stretches across Karnataka and Maharashtra states. Ghataprabha River originates in the Western Ghats near Chaukul, a village in Sawantwadi taluka of Maharashtra's Sindhudurg district. It rises about 12 kilometres (7.5 mi) away from the hill station of Amboli forming at the east-face of the same hills which give birth to the Hiranyakeshi river, one of its important tributaries. From hereon, the river flows eastward into the Kolhapur district of Maharashtra forming the Phatakwadi lake, an artificial water body created by damming the river. It is the only dam built on this river within the jurisdiction of Maharashtra and also includes an hydro-electric plant. The Krishna river originates in the western ghats near Mahabaleshwar at an elevation of about 1,300 metres, in the state of Maharashtra in central India. It is one of the longest rivers in India. The Krishna river is around 1,300 km in length. The Krishna river's source is at Mahabaleswar near the Jor village in the extreme north of Wai Taluka, Satara District, Maharashtra in the west and empties into the Bay of Bengal at Hamasaladeevi (near Koduru) in Andhra Pradesh, on the east coast. It flows through the state of Karnataka before entering Telangana State. The delta of this river is one of the most fertile regions in India and was the home to ancient Satavahana and Ikshvaku Sun Dynasty kings. Vijayawada is the largest city on the River Krishna. It causes heavy soil erosion during the monsoon floods. It flows fast and furious, often reaching depths of over 75 feet (23 m). Ironically, there is a saying in Marathi: "Shant vaahate Krishnamaai" which means "quiet flows Krishna". This term is used to describe that a person should be as quiet as Krishna.

There are four seasons in a year namely cold season from November to March, hot season from April to June, south west monsoon season from last week of June to middle September and post monsoon season from September to beginning of November. During cold season, series of western disturbances affect the climate of the district. The normal annual rainfall of the district is 680 mm unevenly distributed over 31 rainy days. The south west monsoon contributes 75% rainfall and sets in last week of June and withdraws in middle of September. Rest 25% of annual rainfall occurs in the in non monsoon months in the wake of western disturbances and thunder storms. The rainfall increases from southwest to northeastern part of the district. A. RAINFALL: Rainfall in Bagalkot varies from 12mm to 670mm per month. The average annual rainfall in the district is 550 mm. The rainfall in the district increases generally from the South-west towards the north-east and varies from 435.5 mm. About 75% of the rainfall in the district is received during the period from June to September and as much as about 18% rainfall occurs during the period from July to September. B) CLIMATE : The climate of the area is sub Tropical Monsoon climate. The climate of the area is characterized by general dryness except during the brief south-west monsoon season, a hot summer is a bracing winter. The year may be divided into four seasons. It comprises of the winter season (November to Feb) when temperatures ranges from 22 °C to about 16 °C, the hot season (April to June) when temperatures can reach 45 °C (113 °F), monsoon season (July to September) and post-monsoon (September to November). The climate is generally characterized by dry weather except the brief southwest monsoon season, hot summer and bracing winter. Bagalkot receives on an average 601.5 mm of rainfall with around 33 rainy days. The wind direction of Bagalkot is from North West to South-East. C) Humidity : Relative humidity is generally high in the mornings, exceeding 70 per cent except during the summer season when it is less than 50 per cent. The humidity is
comparatively less in the afternoons. The driest part of the year is the summer season when
the relative humidity in the afternoons is about 25 per cent or less.
D) Winds : Winds are generally light with some strengthening in the summer and early part
of the monsoon season. In the post-monsoon and cold season, winds are light and variable in
direction in the morning and mostly from the west or north-west in the afternoons. In April
and May, winds are mainly from direction between northwest and north-east in the mornings
and between west and north-east in the afternoons. By June, easterlies and south –easterlies
also blow and in the southwest monsoon season. winds are more commonly from directions
between northeast and south-east.
E) Special weather phenomena : Western disturbances affect the weather over the district
during the cold season, causing widespread rain and gusty winds. Dust-storms and

GROUND WATER SCENARIO Hydrogeology: The ovoid shaped Kaladgi and Badami Group of sedimentary basin is well marked lying mainly between Krishna, Malaprabha and Ghataprabha rivers, and an area of around 8,300 sq. kms.. In the shallow aquifer ( up to 50m) ground water occurs under unconfined/water table conditions, where as in deeper aquifer, semi-confined/confined conditions exist. The traditional dugwells tapping the shallow aquifer are not in use and most of them have been abandoned, however, this aquifer is being tapped by the hand pumps and shallow tube wells, which are widely used for domestic purposes. The permeable granular zones comprising fine to mediumgrained sand and occasionally coarse sand and gravel. Their lateral and vertical extent is limited. The borehole data reveals that clay group of formations dominate over the sand group in the district area. Ground water in the district occurs in the alluvium under water table and semi confined to confined conditions. Water level behaviour: The depth to water level ranges from 12 to 450 m during pre monsoon period and 22 to 50 m during post monsoon period. The seasonal fluctuation varies from 2.0 to 12.0 m in the area. The long-term water level trend indicates average fall of 0.50 m/year. The long term water level trend is also showing little rise being 0.24 m/year around majauli, which is insignificant with respect to entire area. Ground water flow: The elevation of the water table in the district varies from 430 m to 500 m above mean sea level. The highest elevation is in the South Easter part and the lowest in the Noerthwestern part and reflects the topographic gradients. The hydraulic gradient in the northern western part is steep, whereas, in the south-western part, it is gentle. The overall flow of ground water is from northeast to south-west direction.
7. LAND USE/LAND COVER MAPPING The purpose of land use classification is to maximize the productivity and to conserve the land for prosperity; classification of land requires considerable time and expense. Therefore, there must be justification for classifying of land in to different categories. Land classification is not an end in itself but a means to obtain better land use. Land classification means dividing the land into different categories according to a single factor or a set of factors. Therefore, land classifications may be of many types depending upon the factors taken for classification. The land classification relates to climatic factors, soil characteristics, slope of the land, and degree of erosion, water supply, drainage and similar environmental conditions. The land use capabilities classification portrays the physical capabilities of land to produce over a long period of time under stated conditions of use and which can provide the operations with a basis for actual practice on scientific use of land. 1. The land use map will be utilized as a basic database, which provides the foundation of allocating new land use practices. 2. It will incorporate demographic, economic and environmental impact, which is useful as components of the planning programme. 3. The information of land use map indicate where intensive development has already taken place and where there is open land suitable for future expansions, but also make it possible to determine special areas, as prime agriculture land. 4. Rapid production of small scale map from land-sat multi spectral imageries showing the broad distribution of land use pattern, could serve as a basis for monitoring land use change etc., the growth of the irrigated area and possible change in forest boundaries etc.. 5. The land use map will serve as a base in the integrated overall panning of agricultural and industrial developments of the region.
8. GEOLOGY AND MINERAL OF BAGALKOT The ovoid shaped Kaladgi and Badami Group of sedimentary basin is well marked lying mainly between Krishna, Malaprabha and Ghataprabha rivers, and an area of around 8,300 sq. kms. It is occupies in parts of Bagalkot, Bijapur, Belgaum, Dharwad, Raichur districts of northern Karnataka state, and some parts of eastern Maharashtra, at the Latitude 15°33’ to 16°31' N; and Longitude 74° 10' to 76° E [Fig. 4.1], as it is located almost centre part of the basin. Hence this group of the rocks was designated as 'Kaladgi Series' by Bruce Foote in 1876. However, further attempts were made from several authors to classify Kaladgi sediments by Pascoe, (1949, 1965); Krishnan, (1964); Nautiyal, (1966); Viswanathiah, (1977, 78-80); Chandrasekhara Gowda (1980-1981); Jayaprakash et al, (1987) and Kale, et aL, (1996) were given light on the new classification of the Kaladgi sediments. The Precambrian epicontinental Kaladgi Basin represents a remarkable and significant geological unit displaying magnificent stratigraphic succession, lithologic assemblage, tectonic, structural and depositional features among the Precambrian rocks of Peninsular India. It covers the large area, as compared to the other Precambrian sedimentary formations of Karnataka namely the 'Bhima Group' and geologically it has long history. The Bhima Group assumed to be coeval with Badamis and is similar in deposition to the Badamis, which are made up of blanket conglomerates, glauconite bearing quartzarenites, argillites and carbonates resting unconformably on the Dharwar Group (Sathyanarayan, 1994). The Kaladgi Group initially comprised the rock types of conglomerates, arenites, argillites and carbonate rocks that rest comprised on the Precambrian granites, gneisses and schists belonging to the Dharwar Supergroup. The Kaladgi Supergroup is correlatable with the 'Riphean' of the standard stratigraphic scale of Europe.
AVAILABILITY OF MINERALS:
The district is also rich in mineral wealth. The village of Kaladgi, located 24 km from the
town of Bagalkot, harbours copper. Iron ore also exists in the southern part of the district.

PROCESS OF DEPOSITION OF SEDIMENTS IN THE RIVERS & BANKS Process- Rivers have a lot of energy and because they have energy, they do stuff. The obvious things rivers do with their energy is flow but, besides this, they also transport load, erode load and erode the channel through which they flow. Erosion is the breaking down of material by an agent. In the case of a river, the agent is water. The water can erode the river’s channel and the river’s load. A river’s load is bits of eroded material, generally rocks, which the river transports until it deposits its load. A river’s channel is eroded laterally and vertically making the channel wider and deeper. The intensity of lateral and vertical erosion is dictated by the stage in the river’s course, discussed in more detail here but essentially, in the upper stage of the river’s course (close to the source of the river) there is little horizontal erosion and lots of vertical erosion. In the middle and lower stages vertical erosion is reduced and more horizontal erosion takes place. There are several different ways that a river erodes its bed and banks. The first is hydraulic action, where the force of the water removes rock particles from the bed and banks. This type of erosion is strongest at rapids and waterfalls where the water has a high velocity. The next type of erosion is corrosion. This is where the river’s load acts almost like sandpaper, removing pieces of rock as the load rubs against the bed & banks. This sort of erosion is strongest when the river is transporting large chunks of rock or after heavy rainfall when the river’s flow is turbulent. Corrosion is a special type of erosion that only affects certain types of rocks. Water, being ever so slightly acidic, will react with certain rocks and dissolve them. Corrosion is highly effective if the rock type of the channel is chalk or limestone (anything containing calcium carbonate) otherwise, it doesn’t have much of an effect. Cavitations is an interesting method of erosion. Air bubbles trapped in the water get compressed into 26 small spaces like cracks in the river’s banks. These bubbles eventually implode creating a small shockwave that weakens the rocks. The shockwaves are very weak but over time the rock will be weakened to the point at which it falls apart. The final type of erosion is attrition.
Attrition is a way of eroding the river’s load, not the bed and banks. Attrition is where pieces of rock in the river’s load knock together, breaking chunks of rock off of one another and gradually rounding and shrinking the load. Transportation When a river erodes the eroded material becomes the river’s load and the river will then transport this load through its course until it deposits the load. There are a few different ways that a river will transport load depending on how much energy the river has and how big the load is. The largest of particles such as boulders are transported by traction. These particles are rolled along the bed of the river, eroding the bed and the particles in the process, because the river doesn’t have enough energy to move these large particles in any other way. Slightly smaller particles, such as pebbles and gravel, are transported by salvation. This is where the load bounces along the bed of the river because the river has enough energy to lift the particles off the bed but the particles are too heavy to travel by suspension. Fine particles like clay and silt are transported in suspension; they are suspended in the water. Most of a river’s load is transported by suspension. Solution is a special method of transportation. This is where particles are dissolved into the water so only rocks that are soluble, such as limestone or chalk, can be transported in solution. Capacity & Competence Rivers can only carry so many loads depending on their energy. The maximum volume of load that a river can carry at a specific
point in its course is called the river’s capacity. The biggest sized particle that a river could carry at a specific point is called the river’s competence. Deposition To transport load a river needs to have energy so when a river loses energy it is forced to deposit its load. There’s several reasons why a river could lose energy. If the river’s discharge is reduced then the river will lose energy because it isn’t flowing as quickly anymore. This could happen because of a lack of precipitation or an increase in evaporation. Increased human use (abstraction) of a river could also reduce its discharge forcing it deposit its load. If the gradient of the river’s course flattens out, the river will deposit its load because it will be travelling a lot slower. When a river meets the sea a river will deposit its load because the gradient is generally reduced at sea level and the sea will absorb a lot of energy. As rivers get nearer to their mouths they flow in increasingly wide, gentle sided valleys. The channel increases in size to hold the extra water which the river has to receive from its tributaries. As the river gets bigger it can carry larger amounts of material. This material will be small in size, as larger rocks will have broken up on their way from the mountains. Much of the material will be carried in suspension and will erode the river banks by abrasion. When rivers flow over flatter land, they develop large bends called meanders. As a river goes around a bend most of the water is pushed towards the outside causing increased erosion. The river is now eroding sideways into its banks rather than downwards into its bed, a process called lateral erosion. On the inside of the bend, in 27 contrast, there is much less water. The river will therefore be shallow and slow-flowing. It cannot carry as much material and so sand and shingle will be deposited. This is called a point bar or slip off slope Due to erosion on the outside of a bend and deposition on the inside, the shape of a meander will change over a period of time. Notice how erosion narrows the neck of the land within the meander. In time, and usually during a flood, the river will cut right through the neck. The river will then take the new, shorter route. The fastest current, called the thalweg, will now tend to be in the centre of the river, and so deposition is likely to occur in gentler water next to the banks. Eventually deposition will block off the old meander to leave an oxbow lake. The oxbow lake will slowly dry up , only refilling after heavy rain or during a flood. Streams lose velocity and make deposits when their gradient decreases, when the volume of water decreases, when there is an increase in cross section, when they encounter obstructions, or when they enter still water. They deposit alluvial fans, alluvial cones, piedmont alluvial plains, channel fill, bars, flood plains and deltas.
Pink Granite Quarries: Igneous rocks are formed when melted rock cools and solidifies. Melted rock may come in the form of magma, when it is found underneath the Earth's surface. It can also come in the form of lava, when it is released unto the Earth's surface during a volcanic eruption. Granite forms from the slow crystallization of magma below Earth's surface. Granite is composed mainly of quartz and feldspar with minor amounts of mica, amphiboles, and other minerals. This mineral composition usually gives granite a red, pink, gray, or white color with dark mineral grains visible throughout the rock. Ilkal is a medium-sized town in Bagalkot district in the Indian state of Karnataka. Ilkal is also famous for its red granite stone, which is exported all over the world. . The quarries and mines nearby are excavated for the raw stone, processed and polished and marketed. The granite blocks area also directly exported to various countries. Building stone / Sand Stone: Igneous rocks are formed when melted rock cools and solidifies. Melted rock may come in the form of magma, when it is found underneath the Earth's surface. It can also come in the form of lava, when it is released unto the Earth's surface during a volcanic eruption. A building stone is defined as any massive, dense rock suitable for use in construction.

MINERAL POTENTIAL FOR NON- REPLENISHABLE AREA :
Quantity for non- replenishable area could not be ascertained due to nonwillingness of land
owners for excavation of minor minerals from their own lands . However, it is recommended
that on receipt of request of land owner , a Sub Divisional Level Committee may visit the site
quarry to ascertain the viability of mineral potential i.e. Area and mineral quantity for
recommending the case to the concerned Authority for approval.
10. ECONOMIC IMPACT OF MINING:
The mining will generate direct and indirect employment during mining operations and most
of the unskilled labour will be used for mining purposes and they will be paid more than
minimum wages prescribed by State Govt. In general, there will be no adverse effect on
human health as no blasting or handling of toxic material is involved. All the safety measures
will be strictly followed to prevent occupational risk during excavation, loading and
transportation. This will be a good source of revenue generation for the government as after
getting the Environment Clearance, the minor concessioner will have to pay the Royalty,
Price, Environment Management Fund and TCS which will enhance the revenue of the
Central and State Government.You can also read
