5. Mining Timetable <br /> An approximate maximum timetable for the mining operation is shown on Table D-3. <br /> Table D-3. Mining Timetable <br /> Years Activity <br /> 1 SWWng of initial ruining area <br /> 1 Mining of pit,beginning in the south and progressing north <br /> 1-4 Redaim slopes to rangeland as mining progresses north <br /> 4-5 Completion of mining and final reclamation. <br /> Over the life of the mine, a total of 805,000 tons of material will be extracted at a rate of roughly <br /> 200,000 tons per year. This will result a mine life of approximately five years (3-4 of mining, <br /> one of reclamation completion), depending on market conditions. <br /> 6. Disturbance Area <br /> The largest disturbance at any one time for this mining operation will be at the end of mining. <br /> The area requiring topsoil and vegetation at this stage of the operation will be roughly five acres; <br /> this is half of the area of rangeland slope above the reclaimed lake. Concurrent reclamation will <br /> assure that at least half of the topsoiling is conducted by the time mining is finished. See Exhibit <br /> L for a detailed discussion of the reclamation costs and bond calculations that are based on this <br /> point in the mine's life. <br /> 7. Deposit and Underlying Stratum Geology <br /> 7_1 Mapped Geoloa <br /> A soil report was generated using the United States Department of Agriculture's Natural <br /> Resources Conservation Services' (MRCS) Web Soil Survey (WSS)1 and is included with this <br /> permit application (Exhibit I Soil Report). <br /> ' https://websoilsurvey.sc.egov.usda.eov/App/HomePa�e.htm. <br /> 23 114 West <br /> October 2020 D-7 <br />
