&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;The water requirement for the Bunder mine and ore processing plant is about 5.9 million cubic meters in a year&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The proposed diamond mine in the Buxwaha protected forest region in Chhatarpur district of Madhya Pradesh may have a greater ecological impact on the region than projected so far.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The project threatens to further deplete the already scarce water reserve of the drought-prone Bundelkhand region to excavate about five million tonnes of diamond-bearing kimberlite ore per annum.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Diamond mining is a water-intensive process. The water requirement for the Bunder mine and ore processing plant is about 16,050 cubic metres per day (5.9 million cubic meters in a year), according to the pre-feasibility report of the project. The project is estimated go on for 14 years.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The Bunder mining project was awarded to Essel Mining &amp;amp; Industries Limited in 2019. The company, in its application for environmental clearance, stated that to meet water requirements and protect the mine from inundation, a seasonal nullah (stream) will be converted into a dam.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;A seasonal nullah, however, will not be enough to meet the water requirement of the project, said the tribal communities and locals of Chattarpur. They fear the company may end up using groundwater for the purpose.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;This is likely to exacerbate the water scarcity problem in the region, according to experts.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;PG Najpande from Jabalpur, a local activist, filed a public interest litigation in National Green Tribunal (NGT) to stop the project.&lt;/p&gt;

Buxwaha diamond mining project will make Bundelkhand’s water scarcity worse: Experts -Tejprakash Bhardwaj

-Down to Earth The water requirement for the Bunder mine and ore processing plant is about 5.9 million cubic meters in a year The proposed diamond mine in the Buxwaha protected forest region in Chhatarpur district of Madhya Pradesh may have a greater ecological impact on the region than projected so far.  The project threatens to further deplete the already scarce water reserve of the drought-prone Bundelkhand region to excavate about five million tonnes of diamond-bearing kimberlite ore per annum. Diamond mining is a water-intensive process. The water requirement for the Bunder mine and ore processing plant is about 16,050 cubic metres per day (5.9 million cubic meters in a year), according to the pre-feasibility report of the project. The project is estimated go on for 14 years. The Bunder mining project was awarded to Essel Mining & Industries Limited in 2019. The company, in its application for environmental clearance, stated that to meet water requirements and protect the mine from inundation, a seasonal nullah (stream) will be converted into a dam.  A seasonal nullah, however, will not be enough to meet the water requirement of the project, said the tribal communities and locals of Chattarpur. They fear the company may end up using groundwater for the purpose. This is likely to exacerbate the water scarcity problem in the region, according to experts. PG Najpande from Jabalpur, a local activist, filed a public interest litigation in National Green Tribunal (NGT) to stop the project. Please click here to read more.
