All the seventeen deposits include 20.5 million tons of raw sand , which contains 4.4 million tons of heavy minerals (sp gr > 2.9). Only eight types of economically important heavy minerals, namely, ilmenite, magnetite, zircon , rutile , garnet, leucoxene, kyanite and monazite occur in these deposits. The total stock of these eight types of heavy minerals in these seventeen deposits is 1,761,000 tons.
