Mining Pit 4 <br />75.19 <br />Total Permit Area <br />229.54 <br />Note that the processing area will move during the mining of the 15 Road Pit, so it has been <br />included in the areas described above. The processing facilities will be located in or next to each <br />pit as it is mined. <br />Mining will progress through the Pits numerically. The topsoil and overburden from a new area <br />will be used to reclaim the previous area as well as create the wetlands which have been <br />previously described. This will reduce material moving as well as reduce the maximum area to <br />be reclaimed. Any fines from the crushing/screening operation will also be salvaged and used in <br />the reclamation. A table of expected mining lives for each Pit is included in Table D -3. The life <br />of each Pit is based on the anticipated annual average tonnage. <br />15 Road Pit May 14 D -3 <br />
