GoodMiller #2 Pit 112c Permit <br />Overburden will only be stockpiled from the initial mining area. All other overburden will be <br />placed into its final position for reclamation as mining progresses. Excavation will be conducted <br />with a dozer pushing the raw material to a loader, which will then be loaded in to the crushing <br />plant. The crushing /screening plant will produce stockpiles of different sized aggregates. The <br />gravel deposit will be mined at a maximum slope of 1.5H: 1.OV (67 %), but most mining by dozer <br />pushing will occur at a 3.OH:l.OV slope except for the very edge of the permit boundary. This <br />mining slope will recover the maximum amount of gravel as well as keeping a safe slope. The <br />mine plan utilizes four areas that will be occur sequentially. Map C -2 shows the mining sequence. <br />The gravel is expected to have no reject rate since the final product is primarily road base for the <br />oil and gas well sites, although other uses are possible. Waste fines will be stockpiled and sold if <br />possible. Excessive fines will be used in the backfilling of slopes and the pit floor for final <br />reclamation. <br />GoodMiller #2 Pit Dec 2014 D -2 <br />
