No changes to mine wall stability are anticipated for this <br /> amendment. Stability analysis of other facilities are discussed later in this plan. <br /> The slope stability assessment of mine areas, including geotechnical slope recommendations and <br /> inter-ramp stability, is discussed in an engineering evaluation performed by Call & Nicolas, Inc <br /> (CNI) as part of the Amendment 11 permit application. In general, mining has occurred for the <br /> last 19 years to depths of greater than approximately 800 feet and at designed slope angles <br /> without observable slope failures other than occasional bench raveling. The CNI engineering <br /> evaluation (provided in Amendment 11) also addresses mine area stability as it relates to <br /> permanent manmade structures, as discussed in Exhibit T. <br /> As discussed above, the Schist Island area of the North Cresson mine area will be modified as <br /> part of this Amendment 13. The inter-ramp slope angles recommended for the Globe Hill and <br /> Schist Island mine areas, provided in Table D-6, remain applicable under this amendment. <br /> Cripple Creek&Victor Gold Mining Company Exhibit D <br /> Cresson Project Amendment 13 <br /> 12 <br />
