Earthmoving — same as existing sequence contained in current pit information <br />with the exception that mining will continue to the west, the area we're including <br />in this amendment. <br />c. Water diversions & impoundments — same as existing included in prior <br />conversion. <br />d. Size of area to be worked at any one time — as written earlier, this pit's disturbed <br />area's existing "floor" appears to be a limestone layer that we'll continue to <br />attempt to process into road base. Therefore the area to be worked will be the <br />entire permitted area or appr. 39.9 acres <br />e. Appr. time table to describe the mining operation — if everything goes as planned, <br />we'll commence earthmoving, in the westerly portion of this pit, in the <br />Summer/Fall of 2015 followed shortly by processing the material. We'll reclaim <br />excavated sites, if area and sequences allow, as we excavate different areas using <br />these materials to reclaim previously excavated areas. <br />i. Estimated time for each stage — the entire excavation of the site should take <br />appr. 20 years from the day of commencement. The reclamation should start <br />within 2 years of the ceasing of mining activities and should be completed <br />within 5 years. <br />ii. Description of size and location — we're anticipating the size to be up to the <br />entire permitted pit and the location to be the same during this phase of <br />excavation. <br />iii. Sequence of each stage — we're anticipating commencing toward the <br />westerly portion. <br />f. <br />i. Nature, depth and thickness of product to be mined and overburden — nature <br />of the product is rock to be processed into road base, depth varies from appr. <br />6" to appr. 5', thickness varies from appr. 5 to appr. 15 feet. The type of <br />overburden to be removed is a rock and dirt mix. <br />ii. Nature of the stratum immediately beneath — nature of stratum appears to be <br />sandstone/limestone. <br />
