Andhra Pradesh is the sole holder of country's

resources of shale & slate and is the leadingproducer of apatite, barytes, ball clay, dolomite,

garnet, laterite, mica, limestone and vermiculite. The

state is the sole producer of asbestos. The State

accounts for 94% barytes, 78% kyanite, 70%

corundum, 61% ball clay, 21% limestone, 41% mica

and 33% garnet resources of the country. The State

is endowed with the internationally known black,

pink, blue and multicoloured varieties of granites.

(G-4) was taken up during FS 2010-12

in Eastern Ghat Supergroup ricts to

assess the potential of the area for

chromite mineralisation. The rock types

encountered in and surrounding areas

are pyroxene granulite and charnockite

with enclaves of pyroxenite. The

general trend of the foliation is NW-SE

with moderate to steep southwesterly

dip. In the area to the north of Village

Koduru , a mappable pyroxinite body,

which is about 28 m in length.and 17 m

in width, is recorded that showed

chromite mineralisation. The chromite

mineralisation is confined to ultramafic

rocks . In Kondapalli area the chromiteoccurred as lenses, bands, pockets and

disseminations within steeply dipping

and pitching lenticular bodies of

pyroxenite. Insitu chromite

mineralisation was recorded in all old

chromite opencast quarries present in

the area. The chromite ore is massive in

character, black in color with sub

metallic to metallic luster. It showed

granular texture with high specific

gravity. At places, stringers of chromite

with 5 cm in length and 1cm in width

are also observed within charnockite

unit. The petrographic studies indicate

that the chromite occurred in the form

of disseminations in association with

sulphides in pyroxenites. The analyses

of rock samples collected from old

workings, 30 m to 75 m length 0.5 m

to 2.5 m width in dimensions around

Village Kondapalli, indicated Cr2O3

value ranging from 20.82% to 43.04%.

The work is in progress.

was continued in two boreholes, viz.

(325.25 m to 620.50 m) and 313.75

m to 647.50 m). In borehole-7, only

uppermost coal/carbonaceous shale

zone, namely Czone of Lower

member of Kamthi Formation was

intersected at 557.55 m depth. The

cumulative coal content is about 4.98

m in 10 splits (ranging from 0.30 m

to 1.00 m). Borehole - 8 intersected

Lower Kamthi Formation (Coal /

carbonaceous shale zone- C of 40 m

Seam zone A of Barakar Formation

(72.60 m thick) having cumulative

coal thickness of 25.50 m in 6 split

sections between 414 m and 641.40

m depth. The investigation was

completed .

Reconnaissance stage investigation(G-4) was taken up during FS 2010-

12 in granite-greenstone terrain in this

block to search for kimberlite rock,

the host rock for diamond. The work

was taken up through REC mapping

sampling and laboratories studies. This

area is a part of the Eastern Dharwar

Craton known for emplacements of

several kimberlite pipes and formed

the catchment for the ancient alluvial

diamond workings of the River

Krishna and therefore is a suitable

target area for indicator mineral

surveys. Around 80-100 kg of stream

sediment samples were collected from

suitable trap sites from 4th and 5th

order streams for regional, and for

detailed sampling. . The samples were

processed in a Garytz jig and the

heavies were examined under

stereomicroscope for kimberlite

indicator minerals. Further work is in

progress.

Production

The value of mineral production in Andhra Pradesh

at `18,577 crore in 2010-11 was 3% higher as compared

to that in the previous year. Almost all important

minerals are produced in Andhra Pradesh. The

principal minerals produced in the state were coal, iron

ore, limestone, natural gas (utilised), petroleum (crude),

barytes, manganese ore and dolomite which together

accounted for 55% of total value of mineral production

in the state during 2010-11. Coal alone contributed 44%

and minor minerals accounted for about 45% of the

total value of mineral production in the state.

Andhra Pradesh claims the third position among

the states in the country with a contribution of 8% to

the total value of the mineral production. It is the sole

producer of asbestos in India and also contributes

almost entire out put of barytes and mica (crude). In

addition to this, it is also a leading producer of

vermiculite, sand (others), apatite, laterite and quartz

contributing 90%, 8 7%, 67%, 54% and 43% in the total

production of respective minerals in the country. It is

the second leading producer in the country and

accounts for 43% for felspar , 37% each for silica sand

and sillimanite and 27% for ball clay.

Among the important minerals produced in the

state, the output of quartzite and sillimanite increased

manifold and that of vermiculite by 98%, ball clay 27%,

garnet (abrasive) 22% and silica sand 18%. However, a

decline in production was observed in kaolin 89%, iron

ore 77%, clay (others) 68%, apatite 33%, dolomite 32%,

steatite 23% and lime kankar 21% as compared to the

out put of previous year (Table - 5).

The value of minor mineral production was

estimated at ` 8,287 crore for the year 2010-11.

The number of reporting mines in the state was

427 in 2010-11 as compared to 456 in the previous year.

The index of mineral production in Andhra Pradesh

(base 1993-94=100) was 215.80 in 2010-11 as against

215.63 in the previous year.
