shorten the mine life. Due to other factors regrading demand in the area and
<br />supply reductions from other pits, the following mining and reclamation timetable
<br />is forecast as shown in the revised Table D -1:

<br />The Years to mine the deposit has been reduced to 54.56 years, based on the forecast
<br />sales rate of 200,000 tons per year and the leaving of the berm in place. Phases 1 -11 are
<br />shown as the mining sequence on Map C -2. All other aspects of the mine plan and
<br />reclamation plan have not changed.
<br />Changes 2 and 3 will result in reductions to the permit area from 253.23 acres to 244.25
<br />acres, therefore, new Mine Plan, Reclamation Plan and Cross Section Maps have been
<br />provided in the Technical Revision. These are Maps C -2, C -3 and F. No new lands are
<br />added for this revision and there is no change to the post -mine land use.
<br />The Pit Mining Sequence is shown on the revised Table D -2 on the following page.
