Cripple Creek & Victor Gold Mining Company <br />Squaw Gulch VLF Phase 1 <br />(9,550-foot Elevation Bench to Geomembrane Panel P1635) <br />Final Report <br />Quality Assurance Monitoring & Test Results <br />January 2016 <br />Project No.: 74201125N0 Page 16 <br /> Moisture Content <br />Amec Foster Wheeler measured the moisture contents of SF, SSF, LDF, UF, SLF, and <br />DCF as part of the CQA program. Moisture content data is presented in Tables 5 through <br />10. Note the oven moisture content testing for SLF was calculated with the nuclear <br />gauge wet density reading to produce accurate density and moisture contents. <br /> Atterberg Limits <br />Amec Foster Wheeler performed Atterberg limits testing of fill materials. All fill materials, <br />with the exception of SLF and some SF, were non-plastic. The SF, SSF, LDF, UF, SLF, <br />and DCF samples tested met project technical specifications for Atterberg limits. <br />Atterberg limits test results are presented in Appendix H.1 and summarized on Tables <br />5 through 10. <br />Amec Foster Wheeler performed nine CQA Atterberg limits of SF. The actual testing <br />frequency (approximately one test per 7,639 cubic yards) exceeded the minimum <br />specified testing frequency of one test per 50,000 cubic yards. The SF CQA Atterberg <br />limits results met the project technical specifications; the results are presented in <br />Appendix H.1 and summarized in Table 5. <br />Amec Foster Wheeler performed one CQA Atterberg limits of SSF. The actual testing <br />frequency (approximately one test per 205 cubic yards) exceeded the minimum <br />specified testing frequency of one test per 50,000 cubic yards. The SSF CQA Atterberg <br />limits results met the project technical specifications; the results are presented in <br />Appendix H.1 and summarized in Table 6. <br />Amec Foster Wheeler performed one CQA Atterberg limits of LDF. The actual testing <br />frequency (approximately one test per 120 cubic yards) exceeded the minimum <br />specified testing frequency of one test per 10,000 cubic yards. The LDF CQA Atterberg <br />limit results met the project technical specifications; the results are presented in <br />Appendix H.1 and summarized in Table 7. <br />Amec Foster Wheeler performed one CQA Atterberg limit of UF. The actual testing <br />frequency (approximately one test per 817 cubic yards) exceeded the minimum <br />specified testing frequency of one test per 5,000 cubic yards. The UF CQA Atterberg <br />limits results met the project technical specifications; the results are presented in <br />Appendix H.1 and summarized in Table 8. <br />Amec Foster Wheeler performed 39 CQA Atterberg limits of SLF. The actual testing <br />frequency (approximately one test per 3,483 cubic yards) exceeded the minimum <br />specified testing frequency of one test per 4,000 cubic yards. The SLF CQA Atterberg <br />limits results met the project technical specifications; the results are presented in <br />Appendix H.1 and summarized in Table 9.
