r <br /> Historical field parameters are summarized in Appendix 1, Attachment 7 and the historical <br /> analytical data from the Lumsden Canyon Seep samples are summarized in Appendix 2, Table 4. <br /> Raiah 49 Thornton Portal (Raiah Spring) <br /> The Rajah Spring has been sampled annually from 2009 to 2020. Field parameters and a sample <br /> were collected on June 24, 2020 during the 2020 Seeps and Springs Survey. The Annual Seeps <br /> and Springs Survey notes and photo log are included in the Second Quarter Report. The <br /> analytical laboratory data are provided in the Second Quarter Report. EFRI will continue to <br /> include the Rajah Spring in future annual seeps and springs surveys. <br /> Waste Rock <br /> No ore was mined and no waste rock was produced in the first quarter 2021. The Mine is <br /> currently in temporary cessation status with only maintenance and monitoring activities being <br /> conducted. EFRI has suspended the quarterly waste rock sample collection until such time that <br /> mining operations resume and waste rock removal from the Mine recommences. <br /> Production rates of ore and waste rock are summarized in Appendix 1, Attachments 9 and 10, <br /> respectively. Analytical data from previously collected waste rock samples are summarized in <br /> Appendix 2, Table 6. <br /> Sediment Pond <br /> The sediment pond has been monitored since its construction in November 2008 in accordance <br /> with the Colorado Division of Reclamation, Mining, and Safety stipulations. Although storm <br /> events and significant snow melt events have occurred, none have resulted in storm water <br /> discharge from the pond. As a result, no storm water samples have been collected from the pond <br /> to date. EFRI will continue to monitor the sediment pond for discharge and will collect samples <br /> in the event that a discharge is observed. <br /> Dolores River <br /> In accordance with BLM stipulations to the Mine permit, the Dolores River is required to be <br /> monitored for selenium upstream and downstream from the confluence of Lumsden Creek when <br /> all of the following conditions are met: <br /> 1) The Mine treatment plant is discharging treated water, <br /> 2) There is continuous flow from the middle tributary of Lumsden Creek to the Dolores <br /> River, and <br /> 3) Selenium levels have been in exceedance of the CDPS permit effluent limits in the past <br /> two years. <br /> Because water treatment of mine water has been suspended, it was unnecessary to monitor <br /> Lumsden Creek for discharge to the Dolores River in the first quarter 2021. EFRI will commence <br /> 3 <br />
