         A large number of activities in operation of stone quarrying cause environmental degradation including noise pollution. These quarries are usually located in clusters in remote locations of mineral rich areas where living standards is lower and understanding of people towards environmental impact is also poor. These quarrying activities results in disturbance of land surface, altering drainage pattern and land use, besides the pollution problems, which may lead to the environmental problem of water, air, noise, solid waste pollution and dust pollution. Consequently want of suitable solutions to the problem were very much high on demand for eco-friendly quarrying. Environmental degradation means lowering of environmental quality at local, regional and global scales by both natural processes and human activities. In the central Aravali region stone quarrying and processing units cause environmental degradation and health hazards to a great extent and another problem is socio-economic impact.
