37. Penalty.

- Any contravention of these rules shall be punishable with imprisonment for a term which may extend to two years or with fine which may extend to five lakh rupees, or with both, and in the case of a continuing contravention, with additional fine which may extend to rupees fifty thousand for every day during which such contravention continues after conviction for the first such contravention.[Schedule A] [Substituted by Notification No. G.S.R. 134(E), dated 20.2.2019 (w.e.f. 11.7.2016).]Particulars of Threshold Value for Atomic Minerals(See rule 2 (1) (m) and rule 36)
1. Beryl and other beryllium-bearing minerals 0.1% BeO (1000 ppm BeO) of the rock or 10kg/tonne Beryl inexcavated material.
2. Lithium bearing minerals 0.5% (5,000ppm) Li2O in ore,except brine (200 ppm Li, i.e. 200 g/tonne Li).
3. Minerals of the 'rare earths' group containing uranium andthorium 60 ppm U3O8and/or 250 ppm ThO2in ore.
4. Niobium-bearing minerals 100 ppm (Nb+Ta)2O5(100 g/tonne) in ore.
5. Phosphorites and other phosphatic ores containing uranium 60 ppm U3O8in ore.
6. Pitchblende and other uranium ores 60 ppm U3O8in ore, except in Singhbhum Shear zone in Jharkhand where thethreshold value will be 150 ppm U3O8in ore.
7. Titanium bearing minerals and ores (ilmenite, rutile and leucoxene) In case of titanium-bearing minerals occurring in hard rock,60 ppm U3O8and/or 250 ppm ThO2in the rock.All cases of titanium-bearing minerals occurring in Beach Sand Minerals and other placer deposits in association with monazite are notified as above threshold (i.e. the threshold is 0.00% monazite in Total Heavy Minerals), irrespective of monazite grade.
8. Tantalum-bearing minerals 100 ppm (Ta+Nb)2O5(100 g/tonne) in ore.
9. Uraniferousallanite, monazite and other thorium minerals 60 ppm U3O8and/or 250 ppm ThO2All cases of Beach Sand Minerals and other placer deposits in association with monazite are notified as above threshold (i.e. the threshold is 0.00% monazite in Total Heavy Minerals), irrespective of monazite grade.
10. Uranium bearing tailings left over from ores after extractionof copper and gold, ilmenite and other titanium ores. 60 ppm U3O8and/or 250 ppm ThO2.
11. Zirconium bearing minerals and ores including zircon. All cases of zirconium -bearing minerals occurring in Beach Sand Minerals and other placer deposits in association with monazite are notified as above threshold (i.e. the threshold is 0.00% monazite in Total Heavy Minerals), irrespective of monazite grade.In other cases, zircon containing less than 2000 ppm of Hafnium.
12. Beach Sand Minerals i.e. economic heavy minerals found in the teri or beach sand, which include ilmenite, rutile, leucoxene, garnet, monazite, zircon and sillimanite. All cases of Beach Sand Minerals and other placer deposits in association with monazite are notified as above threshold (i.e. the threshold is 0.00% monazite in Total Heavy Minerals), irrespective of monazite grade.
