NEWMONT <br /> GOLDCORR <br /> 6 DESIGNATED CHEMICAL(S) AND MATERIAL(S) HANDLING <br /> Final closure of the VLFs will include double rinsing of the ore with recirculated solution from the <br /> VLFs, followed by a hydrogen peroxide-assisted rinsing cycle, if needed, to complete removal of <br /> sodium cyanide, per the discussions in Exhibit E. As a result of recirculation and rinsing, <br /> associated process equipment will be rinsed and rendered suitable for demolition and salvage. <br /> The Mined Land Reclamation Board (MLRB) has approved a standard of an average <br /> concentration of CNwAD less than 0.2 mg/L in the rinse water or in results from meteoric water <br /> mobility testing of the neutralized ore material. Data supporting achievement of this standard will <br /> be provided to the DRMS for review and concurrence. Following concurrence, physical <br /> reclamation of the VLFs will proceed. <br /> The HG Mill facilities will be decommissioned prior to closure of the VLF2. Chemicals associated <br /> with the HG Mill will be removed as part of facility demolition. Rinse water from decontamination <br /> of the equipment will be recirculated into the VLF through makeup water. The pH modifiers and <br /> dilute sodium cyanide solutions also will be recycled through this process. <br /> During periods of temporary cessation, adequate staffing will be maintained to continue to <br /> circulate solutions and monitor and maintain water balances associated with the VLFs. Power <br /> and emergency back-up power will be maintained. Monitoring and associated reporting activities <br /> also will continue during temporary cessation. <br /> Cripple Creek&Victor Gold Mining Company Exhibit U <br /> Cresson Project Amendment 13 <br /> 8 <br />
