Ochre
Nimmalapadu Deposit:
The Calcite deposit in Nimmalapadu village falls in notified Tribal area. The area lies at
N latitude 180 10’30” and E longitude 820 56’ in survey of India toposheet no 65 J/16.

kothavasasa, Srungavarapukota and Damuku villages on Visakapatnam –Araku State
Highway.
APMDC holds two Mining leases for Calcite etc over an extent of 46.60 ha on
Nimmalapadu (v) of Visakapatnam dist. The Calcite deposit has been explored by way of
detailed geological mapping, diamond core drilling, sampling and analysis.
The deposit is estimated to contain a reserve of 24.65 lakh tonnes of Calcite (at 3% SiO 2
cuf off) with an average SiO2 of 2.18% and a reserve of 85.57 lakh tonnes of Calcite (at
4.75% SiO2 cut off) with an average SiO2 of 3.4%.
2. Calcite
Karaiguda Calcite Deposit:
The Calcite deposit falls in Karaiguda village and is a notified Tribal Area. The area lies
at N Latitude 180 20’05” and E Longitude 830 01’15” in Toposheet No. 65N/3. It is
situated 110 Km NNW of Visakhapatnam and could be approached by VisakhapatnamAraku State Highway via Kothavalasa, Srungavarupukota, Damuku, Ananthagiri and
Sunkarimetta villages. From Sunkarimetta a fair weather kutcha road leads to Tadaka
village and from there, there is a makeshift road for 3 kms upto Karaiguda village.
APMDC filed Mining Lease application for Calcite over an extent of 46.68 Acres in
Karaiguda village, Ananthagiri Mandal, Visakhapatnam District. The Government has
proposed to grant mining lease subject to submission of approved mining plan.
The Calcite deposit has been explored by way of geological mapping, diamond core
drilling, sampling and analysis. The deposit is estimated to contain a reserve of 11.01
lakh tonnes with and average Total Carbonate of 89.2% ranging between 82.6 and 94.3%
and SiO2 of 5.2% ranging between 3.3 and 9.5%.
Marble deposits in Khammam District:
General:
Marble is a crystalline metamorphic rock, a carbonate of lime and magnesia. Chemically
it consists of calcareous or siliceous or ferruginous or serpentinous limestone, dolomite
and calcite. The degree of high polish marble takes depends on equigranular and closely
spaced inter-locked arrangement of the individual grains. The compact and polished
marble can be used for decorative purpose of the buildings.
Marbles are used mostly based on the pleasing appearance and physical strength rather
than their chemical composition. Fine grained equigranular marble is generally preferred
for statues and sculpture works and coarse grained equigranular marble for external
flooring, wall paneling and other building purposes.
Hardness of marble ranges between 2.5 to 5 on the Moh’s Hardness scale depending on
the chemical composition and relates to its mechanical strength.

Location and Accessibility:
The marble deposits are occurring in Yellandu, and Kamepally Mandals of Khammam
District. The marble bearing areas are falling between Latitude 170 23’ to 170 40’ and
Longitude 800 15’ to 800 30’ in Survey of India Topo Sheet No. 65 C/6 and 65C/7.
The Yellandu Mandal Headquarter is situated nearly 46 kms from Khammam town in
NNE direction. The important marble bearing areas in this Mandal fall in Monditogu,
Puballi and Dandagundala villages. All these areas are approachable by jeepable roads.
The Kamepalli Mandal headquarters is situated at about 31 kms NNE of Khammam
town. The marble bearing areas in thew Mandal fall in Jasthupally, Captain Banjara and
Vootukur villages. These villages can be approached by jeepable roads from Kamepally .
Geology and Mineral reserves:
The rock types met with these areas are Quartzites, Phyllites, slates and Dolomites
belonging to the Pakhal Series equivalent to Cuddapah Super Group of rocks. These rock
types have a regional strike of NW-SE to N-S direction and a dip in Easterly direction.
The marble is formed as a result of regional metamorphism of less impure magnesium
dolomites due to compressioin exerted between Gondwana formation and Peninsular
Gneissic complex, as evident from the associated of numerous needles and crystals of
minerals like actinolites and tremolites. Besides these minerals, the marbles are
occasionally associated with pyrites and sericites, which is suggestive of Dynamothermal
metamorphism.
The Corporation has applied for grant of Quarry Leases for Marble in Khammam district
The DMG has issued proceedings granting 6 quarry leases to Corporation, as per the
following details.

ML-1 AREA:- The Kalingapatnam to Bhavanapadu Sector extends from Rajarampuram
H/o Nandigam Village of Polaki Mandal in the north of Vamasadhara River &
Kalingapatnam to Rajapuram H/o Sandipata, Bavanapadu village of Santhabommali
Mandal in the North covering an extent of 16.82 sq.kms. The area contains 23.65 million
tones of reserves with 13.07% Heavy Minerals of which 7.32 million tonnes is Ilmenite
and 6.283 million tonnes is Garnet respectively. The strike length of the deposit is about
36 kms, width about 250 to 900m (av.500m) and thickness is 1.00 to 7.30 (Av 2.00m
upto water table. The deposit area is approachable from Narasannapeta-Polaki-Tekkali
Road to the 6 different places near the deposit ( each about 5 to 6 kms apart) viz.
Ampalam Village approach road near Vamasadhara river, Koyyarapeta village approach,
Jogampeta village, Ummilada village, Jagannadhaparam village and Meghavaram village
(Near Sandipet). As can be seen, this sector can either be dissected into 5 blocks keeping
the approach roads in view, each block having roughly 7 kms stretch of deposit.
However, it is felt better to divide the area into two blocks, each about 20 km, and 16
kms., viz., Nandigam /Ampalam in the South to Jagannadhapuram in the North and
Runkuhanumanthapuram in the South to Rajpuram on the North, respectively, as there is
a natural check separating the two blocks for convenience of operations and also keeping
in view the resources of HMBS available in the area as per AMD’s exploration report.

of which 8.5 million tonnes is Ilmenite and 6.76 million tonnes is Garnet. The strike
length of the deposit is about 14.80 km, width is about 350 m to 1110 m (Av 500m) and
Av. thickness of 7.75m. The deposit area is approachable from Narasannapeta-PolakiTekkali Road to the 5 different places (each about 2 to 3 kms apart) viz., Bhavanapadu,
Devenalthada, Kothapeta, URK puram & Manchineellapenta near Bendi creek. Keeping

Antarangamma konda which has a Tri-junction point
943 marked on the hillock.
Further the state boundary between AP and Karnataka passes very nearby towards West
of the area. The area is approachable from Bellary via Halakundi.
APMDC filed initially prospecting license application over an extent of 90.75 ha on
2.8.04 and after field study the Corporation filed ML application over 25.00 ha of highly
prospective area on 26.10.04 in Bellary RF, near H.Siddapuram tanda, Dandina Hirehal
Mandal, Anantapur dist.
The Iron ore is Hematite in nature and is associated with ferruginous quartzites. The Iron
ore consists of about 64% Fe. However a detailed investigation is needed to establish
both quality and quantity.
14. Black granite:
The deposit falls in reserved Forest of Ingurthy “E” block Mahaboobabad range,
Warangal South Division. of Warangal dist. Deposit area is a remote and barren part of
forestland. Located in part of toposheet No 56 0/14 between 790 49’longitudes, 170
40’45’ latitude. The area is approachable by Khammam bound train from Hyderabad.
The area is approachable by road from Kesamudram. The deposit is 10 KM away
towards Ingurthy, 2 KM before reaching the village, and is situated on North of the road.
APMDC filed QL application for Black granite over 4.90 ha on 4.8.2003. The
