(a) Specify estimated dates that mining will commence and end <br />Proposed date for mining commencement is August 15, 2015 with end date on or <br />before July 1, 2025. <br />(b) Estimated depth of soil <br />All topsoil above bedrock which is estimated <49 inches will be stockpiled and <br />preserved. Topsoil is to be stockpiled as shown in Exhibit E Map Number 2. The <br />topsoil is placed in a large rectangular structure built on-site that would measure <br />roughly 20' x 40' x 3' to 4' height. Bottom of structure lined with a rubber membrane <br />plus top soil covered by tarp(s) during non -activity at mine. <br />As part of the mining plan the topsoil removed will be replaced from original position <br />within 180 days of removal with the exception during winter months. <br />(c) Overburden thickness is estimated at <49 inches <br />Waste rock in overburden will be removed and placed in area next to vein during <br />excavation period then reburied. Vein trench begins immediately at bedrock. Waste <br />rock storage area is shown on Exhibit E Map Number 2. Wall and waste rock is <br />placed in a large rectangular structure built on-site that would measure roughly 20' x <br />40' x 3' to 4' height. Bottom of structure lined with a rubber membrane plus wall / <br />waste rock covered by tarp(s) during non -activity at mine. <br />(d) Thickness of deposit to be mined <br />The primary vein values varies from 6 inches to 3 feet in width according to historical <br />records. <br />Primary means to access vein material is an excavator. The limiting factor of ability <br />to access vein depth is reach of excavator that is near 20 feet to 30 feet maximum <br />depth. Estimated width of area excavated is 6 feet to 10 feet as noted on Exhibit E <br />Map Number 2. <br />(e) Major components of mining operation <br />• Mining road connecting from Ute Creek Rd. to location of vein as shown in <br />Exhibit E Map 1. Road dimension to EMSHA requirements of 20 feet. <br />• 10 x 24 Storage Shipping Container. <br />• Processing facilities shown in Exhibit E Map Number 3: <br />o Trailer Mounted Jaw Crusher with up to 2 tons / hr. capacity. <br />Teton Drilling, Inc. <br />Dixie Mine - Clear Creek County, CO <br />
