-Potassium Amyl Xanthate-2,250 Ibs onsite <br /> -Methyl IsoButyl Carbinol-900 Ibs <br /> -Generic anionic emulsion flocculent-450 Ibs <br /> That's 3,600 pounds of chemicals to be stored onsite and refreshed as needed. No one knows how these <br /> chemicals will interact with the ore taken from the mine and whether they will become toxic or not. Mix <br /> chemicals and ore of unknown reaction with 65,000,000 gallons of water annually and a potential disaster could <br /> occur. <br /> Reclamation: <br /> Only$261,813 has been reserved for reclamation of the"affected area"when the mine shuts down. For 82 <br /> acres?With no inflation factored into the figures?Even without structures,concrete pads, holding ponds,etc., <br /> 82 acres could not be professionally landscaped for$261,813.The reclamation allocation is too small and is not <br /> adjusted for inflation. <br /> Funds to solve problems: <br /> There is no allocation funds to address an unexpected fire,explosion, pollution leakage,or power outage. <br /> Zephyr has to seek additional funding to operate a mine or sell off to a larger concern.Without a requirement <br /> for a"problem reserve",where would money come from to mitigate a significant problem? <br /> The request: <br /> PLEASE do not approve this mining permit application!The application does not have sufficient assurances <br /> that a long-term disaster will not happen or that short term significant problems can be resolved. <br /> Permit Number* <br /> Enter valid letter and then numbers,for example M122112211 or C123456789. <br /> M2021046 <br /> Permitting Action Type <br /> Select revision type or leave blank if comment pertains to a new permit application or NOI <br /> Permit Type <br /> County <br /> Fremont <br /> Site Name <br /> Dawson Gold Mine <br />
