MARBLE QUARRYING
[EIRI/EDPR/1498] J.C. 284
INTRODUCTION
Marble is one of the emerging industries of India. According to estimates India has over 1000 billion tons of marble reserves and more than 100 types of colours and verities of marble and granite are available in India.
This report aims at providing ample information to the potential investors that would help them in preparing realistic business plan for the Marble Quarry.
This feasibility study aims at both financial and socio economic viability with in-depth financial analysis and sustainable socio economic benefits.
Marble is a 'minor mineral' as defined in Clause (e) of Section 3 of Mines and Minerals (Development & Regulation) Act, 1957. The term "marble" is derived from the Latin word Murmur which in turn is said to have been coined from Greek word Marmorous meaning shining stone. It is known for its pleasant colours, smooth and uniform texture, moderate hardness, amenability to be quarried into big blocks, smooth & shiny polished surface and silky feel. Marble occupies a unique position among other dimension stones because of its aesthetic value.
In terms of geological definition, it is a metamorphosed limestone produced by recrystallisation under condition of thermal and also regional metamorphism. In commercial parlance almost any rocks consisting of calcium and/or magnesium carbonate which can take polish easily more especially unmetamorphosed limestone are termed as marble. Marble is not a prime export commodity like the dimension stone, granite. Its internal demand has always remained high and most of the production added with recent increase in imports is consumed within the country. Marble is the most preferred stone in India among all dimension stones. Most of the units in the marble industry are in the small scale sector.
Marble is a crystalline, compact variety of metamorphosed limestone, consisting primarily of calcite (CaCO3), dolomite (CaMg (CO3)6 or a combination of both minerals. Pure calcite is white, but mineral impurities add color in variegated patterns. Extensive deposits are located in Italy, India, Pakistan, Spain, Greece, Brazil, China, Afghanistan, Turkey, Great Britain, and in the United States. Commercially the term Marble is extended to include any rock composed of calcium carbonate that takes polish including ordinary limestone. The term is further extended in the loose designation of stones such as alabaster, serpentine and other soft rocks. Specific gravity of Marble ranges between 2.68 to 2.72, determining the density of the stone.
Marble is a durable stone in dry atmosphere only when protected from rain. The surface of Marble crumbles readily when exposed to moist or acidic environment. Purest form of Marble is statuary Marble, which is white with visible crystalline structure. The distinctive luster of statuary Marble is caused by the reflection of penetrated light from the surfaces of inner crystals.
