Russell Means <br />Division of Reclamation, Ming & Safety <br />1313 Sherman St Ste 215 <br />Denver, CO 80203-2273 <br />RE: Pride of the West Mill, Permit no.: M-1984-049, Division Request for Water <br />Quality Sampling of Cell 1A <br />Dear Mr. Means: <br />Enclosed are the lab results from the Cell IA sample for the Division. Based on <br />comparable results for background (CP -2) it appears the water would not be suitable for <br />land application and must be evaporated as CGI has practiced in the past. <br />It is good that Mr. Hennis was stopped from the land application plan last fall. It appears <br />that the water setting in the lined cell has continued to dissolve some additional metals <br />(not unexpected) and the primary issues appear to be with Cadmium, Copper and Lead. <br />Zinc is marginal. the pH is within normal range for CP -2. The results indicate that there <br />is not a Cyanide or Mercury issue, as expected. <br />Also note the Lab Report is mis-labeled Cell 2A instead of IA - an obvious typo. <br />Thank you. If you have any questions or if I may be of further assistance, do not hesitate <br />to call me directly. <br />Sincerely, <br />1 <br />Colorado Goldfields Inc. <br />C.
