The mining project is proposed for the Iron& Wm. Richardson Lode Claims in Gilpin County,
Colorado, 0.4 miles east off Co. Rd. 279 on Druid Mine Road. Nevadaville Encore, LLC, P. O.
Box 1442, Central City, CO 80427, [phone], has applied for a Limited Impact (110d)
Operation Reclamation Permit Application No. M-2014-066 with the Colorado Division of
Reclamation, Mining and Safety.
This proposed project lies within Township 3 South, Range 73 West, in the NE 1/41/4 of the NW 1/4

Richardson Lode Claim, U. S. M. S. No. 233, and 185 feet near the center of the Iron Lode
Claim, U. S. M. S. No. 572.
Permanent man-made structures include Druid Mine Road, which crossed the Richardson claim
and lies just north of the north sideline of the Iron claim. Druid Mine Road is an unmaintained
Gilpin County Road and is not privately owned.
A three-phase power line, owned and erected by Xcel Energy, runs northerly about 100 feet to
the east of the Richardson claim's east endline. No part of this proposed operation will
negatively impact Druid Mine Road or this power line. No part of this operation will extend past
