Iron ore was extracted in Chitradurga, Tumkur and Bellary districts in excess of the quantity approved in the mining plans from 2006 to 2010. Iron ore worth Rs. 107.41 crore was extracted without approval in 10 mines in the three districts during this period, according to the latest report of the Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) of India.
 
The report says that in 10 cases, the Department of Mines and Geology failed to monitor whether iron ore was extracted in accordance with the mining plans approved by the Indian Bureau of Mines.
 
Verification of audit reports of the Department of Mines and Geology by the CAG revealed that against 41.24 lakh tonnes of iron ore that was to have been extracted by the 10 lessees in the three districts, 51.19 lakh tonnes of ore was extracted. The 9.95 lakh tonnes of excess ore extracted illegally was valued at Rs. 107.41 crore. (Source: The Hindu)
