Exhibit D <br />MINING PLAN <br />6.4.4 (a) We will begin by removing topsoil and placing it on <br />the inside of the boundary. Soil will be moved with a <br />scraper and bulldozer. Soil will be held 25 ft. inside the <br />boundary to leave an area for inspection and <br />maintenance. Topsoil removal will take approximately <br />4 weeks. <br />(b) Any remaining overburden will be removed by scraper and <br />bulldozer and placed along the east side of our working <br />area. This should be accomplished in about 4 weeks. <br />(c) Topsoil and overburden will be placed to build a dike <br />around the active mining area. This will create a <br />diversion to stop storm water from entering the active <br />Mining area. <br />(d) We will open and excavate in approximately 15 acre <br />increments. This will help to lessen the impact on the <br />pasture area and help to lessen the cost to reclamation. The <br />pit will be reclaimed as we go. The landowner will be able <br />to run livestock on the undisturbed portions of the area. <br />Landowner's fence will help to secure our permitted area. <br />
