NEWMONT <br /> GOLDCORR <br /> TR-104 permitted remining of mineralized waste materials from OSAs. As part of Amendment 13, <br /> CC&V plans to process mineralized waste from OSAs where it is economical to do so. Mineralized <br /> waste material will be handled the same as ore and will be hauled to the crusher circuit, mixed <br /> with lime and hauled to VLFs for processing. Mineralized waste may also be managed as ROM <br /> and may be routed to the lime/cement silo prior to placement on VLFs, as approved in TR-114. <br /> 3.6 Sequence of Development—Underground Mining Areas <br /> Underground mining was discussed and approved as part of the Amendment 11 permitting action. <br /> Additionally, underground exploration was detailed and approved as part of TR-116. No further <br /> changes to those approvals are made under this Amendment 13. <br /> 3.7 Overburden Management <br /> Rock without recoverable gold, but which must be removed to access the gold-bearing ore, is <br /> called overburden. Overburden will be loaded from the active mine areas for transport and <br /> managed at the designated OSAs. Overburden will be managed in designated mine areas once <br /> mining operations have ceased and the area is opened for overburden. The overburden <br /> management practices and management facilities are described below. <br /> 3.7.1 Squaw Gulch Overburden Storage Area (SGOSA) <br /> A portion of the existing SGOSA will be removed to make room for construction of VLF2 Phase <br /> 3. Overburden removed from SGOSA or other locations will be placed in the Schist Island mine <br /> area to reach the design grades required for VLF2 Phase 3 construction. Details of the overburden <br /> removal from SGOSA are described in the Valley Leach Facility 2 Phase 3 Detailed Design Report <br /> provided in Appendix 1 to this Amendment 13. <br /> 3.7.2 East Cresson Overburden Storage Area (ECOSA) <br /> No modifications to ECOSA are planned under this amendment. ECOSA will continue to receive <br /> overburden material from the active mine areas. ECOSA will be built-out and graded according <br /> to sequencing described in previous amendments. <br /> 3.7.3 Deposition of Overburden into Mine Areas <br /> General <br /> As previously stated, this amendment modifies the Schist Island mine area backfill plan to <br /> accommodate backfill removed from the SGOSA or other areas for the construction of VLF2 <br /> Phase 3. <br /> Except for the proposed changes to the Schist Island mine, as provided in this amendment, <br /> deposition of overburden into mine areas (i.e., mine area backfilling) will not change from that <br /> Cripple Creek&Victor Gold Mining Company Exhibit D <br /> Cresson Project Amendment 13 <br /> 15 <br />
