With Karnataka’s push for sustainable alternatives to river sand, M-Sand has become the go-to material for construction across the state. In the historic mining region of Kolar, where hard rock is abundant, Anjani M Sand, led by Mr. Sommannah, seized the opportunity by investing in a Taurian 3-stage plant—customized for maximum shape control, high output, and consistent production of M-Sand and aggregates.

Geological Setting – Hard Granite Terrain of Kolar Mines

Kolar’s mining belt is dominated by high-density granite and quartz-rich rock, known for its strength and durability. While ideal for construction-grade aggregates, these rocks are extremely abrasive and require advanced crushing solutions that offer both strength and shaping precision across multiple stages.

The Challenge

Mr. Sommannah’s earlier plant setup was unable to deliver M-Sand with consistent particle size or shape, leading to high rejection rates from RMC plants and urban contractors. Frequent liner wear, poor dust control, and irregular screening also limited daily production. To break into the competitive M-Sand market, a complete 3-stage setup was essential—capable of producing both coarse and fine aggregates along with high-quality M-Sand.

The Solution

Taurian 3-Stage Crushing Plant, engineered for M-Sand excellence:

  • Primary Jaw Crusher (TJ Series) – For initial reduction of tough granite boulders
  • Secondary Cone Crusher (CG Series) – For controlled reduction and shape refinement
  • Tertiary VSI Crusher (T Series) – For final shaping and production of consistent, cubical M-Sand
  • High-Precision Screening – Integrated system for accurate separation into multiple fractions (20mm, 10mm, 6mm, M-Sand, dust)

Key Features:

  • Optimized Plant Flow: Designed to minimize recirculation and increase throughput
  • High-Quality M-Sand Production: Superior shaping and grading for plaster and concrete applications
  • Built for Granite: Wear-resistant materials and heavy-duty construction tailored for high abrasion
  • Environment-Friendly Setup: Equipped for dust suppression and water recycling compatibility

Results and Impact

Post-installation, Anjani M Sand ramped up production to over 200 TPH, supplying clean, IS-standard M-Sand and multi-grade aggregates to construction hubs in Bengaluru and surrounding regions. Key benefits include:

  • 75% reduction in rejection rates
  • Consistent M-Sand particle size and shape
  • Lower maintenance costs and longer wear life
  • High contractor confidence and repeat orders

With the new plant, Mr. Sommannah has successfully positioned Anjani M Sand as a trusted, high-volume supplier, gaining a competitive edge in Karnataka’s booming construction ecosystem.
