HARD ROCK/ METAL MINING <br /> LIMITED IMPACT OPERATION (110(2)) <br /> RECLAMATION PERMIT APPLICATION <br /> For the Ten Percenter Claim (CMC254209) <br /> M- <br /> BLM CMC254209 <br /> USFS File Code 2810 <br /> USFS 2810-021210-MPO 2018-004 <br /> 6.3.2 EXHIBIT B <br /> Site Description <br /> Introduction: <br /> The areas affected by the proposed surface disturbance all lie within the bounds of the Ten <br /> Percenter Lode Mining Claim (BLM CMC254209). Please refer to 6.3.1 Exhibit A—for the <br /> location of the Ten Percenter Claim. The site is generally characterized by moderately <br /> rolling terrane covered with irregular, locally dense pine, spruce, and aspen groves <br /> interspersed with meadows of grasses, shrubs, and forbs. There are no wetlands or riparian <br /> areas on the Ten Percenter Claim or within 200 feet of its boundary. <br /> Three main areas on the claim have been previously disturbed by prior operators using <br /> mechanized equipment exploring for mineral specimens in the period 1972 through 1999, <br /> as well as numerous hand dug pits. These three primary areas of prior exploration by <br /> mechanized equipment include the Upper Pit or Cut, Middle Pit or Cut, and Lower Pit or <br /> Cut. The areas are shown on the maps comprising portions of 6.3.5 Exhibit E—Maps. <br /> Additionally, a copy of a brief report (Wobus, R. A., Finnemore, S., and Smith, D.; Geology of <br /> the Ten Percenter Pegmatite Mine, Lake George District, Teller County, Colorado, in Holden, <br /> G. S., ed., Field Trip Guidebook, Geological Society of America 1888-1988 Centennial <br /> Meeting, Denver, Colorado, Colorado School of Mines Professional Contributions No. 12, p. <br /> 43-46.) is attached as documentation and evidence of some of the previous work by others. <br /> These areas have been partially reclaimed or partially self-reclaimed. A Reclamation Bond is <br /> still being held by either the USFS or DRMS for the reclamation work that was performed <br /> and released in 2000. <br /> The disturbance proposed in this Limited Impact Operation 110(2) Reclamation Permit <br /> application and related USFS Plan of Operations (USFS Poo 092815, as revised) will cover <br /> many of the prior hand-excavated areas and as a result of re-excavation,those areas will be <br /> reclaimed. Within the proposed Affected/Permit Area of 9.10 acres are four, new trench <br /> and dump areas which may be excavated over the term of the permit (totaling 4.275 acres). <br /> All of these areas fall entirely within the Proposed Affected Area of 9.10 acres which is set <br /> Reclamation Permit Application for Ten Percenter Claim BLM CMC254209 <br /> USFS File Code 2810,USFS MPO-2018-004 <br />
