EXHIBIT 27, ITEM 3 <br /> I. INTRODUCTION <br /> The Collom Pit Drilling Program will consist of drilling 80 drill holes (Please see Figure Exh. <br /> 27-3-1 for drill pad locations) in order to obtain data to enhance the Collom geologic model. The <br /> planned drill holes will be drilled over a succession of years, and Colowyo will annually report <br /> in the annual reclamation report all drilling that took place for the report year. <br /> An exemption for sediment control for three drill pads is presented in Exhibit 7, Item 25A in <br /> Volume 18C. <br /> II. SEALING AND RECLAMATION OF DRILL HOLES, DRILL PADS,AND <br /> DRILL ROADS <br /> Drill pads shown on Figure Exh. 27-3-1 and listed on Table Exh. 27-3-1 will have either one <br /> single cole hole or a combination of a rotary and core drill hole. Drill holes that will be <br /> completely or partially mined through, will be reclaimed in accordance with Section 2.05.4(1) in <br /> Volume 15. Drill holes that will be drilled outside of the planned mining area will be plugged <br /> and abandoned following the completion and logging of each drilling hole. <br /> Topsoil will be removed or windrowed directly adjacent to drill pads. All topsoil that is <br /> windrowed will be picked up during the larger stripping effort associated with development of <br /> the Collom Pit. Drill roads will use existing ranch roads where possible to limit disturbance, <br /> and in areas ranch roads are not available the road to access the drill pad will be brushed only to <br /> allow equipment to access each pad location. Most of the drill pads and roads will be mined <br /> through, or will be within the larger disturbance footprint associated with the Collom Pit. These <br /> drill pad locations and roads will be reclaimed at the appropriate time in accordance with Map <br /> 29B and Section 2.05.4 in Volume 15 when mining is complete. <br /> Drill pads C-41, C-59, C-60 and their associated roads will have the topsoil replaced and will be <br /> seeded upon completion of the drilling for the year. <br /> Exhibit 27 Item 3 1 Revision Date: 5/14/20 <br /> Revision No.: MR-216 <br />
