Mining and Safety <br /> Dear Ms.Eschberger: <br /> The third quarter sampling event at the Schwartzwalder Mine was conducted by Ensero Solutions US,Inc. <br /> (Ensero)field staff from July 19 to July 27,2021.In addition to presenting sample data,CLL is including the <br /> Schwartzwalder Mine Schematic-Q3 2021 to illustrate the groundwater divide between the mine pool and <br /> Ralston Creek.During the third quarter sampling event,all samples taken of Ralston Creek within the permit <br /> boundary were below the Colorado drinking water standard for uranium,30 µg/L. <br /> • Surface Water Data: There are 13 quarterly surface water(SW)sampling locations.Figure 1 shows <br /> the location of each surface water sample locations along Ralston Creek.Table 2a summarizes surface <br /> water field parameters.Table 2b summarizes the analytical data results.The analytical laboratory data <br /> report and the chain of custody are attached to this report.A copy of the electronic data deliverable <br /> (EDD)excel file for these samples are included in this submittal. <br /> • Groundwater Data: There are 13 quarterly groundwater monitoring well (MW) locations. Table 1 <br /> shows the monitoring well elevations. Figure 2 shows the location of each MW. Table 3a summarizes <br /> groundwater field parameters. Table 3b summarizes the analytical data results. The analytical <br /> laboratory data report and the chain of custody are attached to this report.A copy of the EDD excel file <br /> for these samples are included in this submittal. <br /> • Mine Pool Elevations:Table 4 summarizes the mine pool elevations for the quarter. Pumping of the <br /> mine pool has consistently maintained the mine pool elevation below the regulatory limit of 150 feet <br /> (ft)below the Steve Level even during months of no pumping.Maintaining the mine pool below the <br /> regulatory limit has established a hydraulic gradient away from Ralston Creek,preventing mine water <br /> from entering the creek in the permit area. <br /> If you have any questions regarding this letter,please do not hesitate to contact me. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> y — A. <br /> Jim Harrington,Managing Director <br /> COLORADO LEGACY LAND <br /> Ji ill 11'Colorulolxgs lcy_.L'-1Il l <br /> cc: Paul Newman-CLL,Managing Director,pawl@coloradolegacv.land <br /> Eric Williams-CLL,Managing Director,eric@coloradolegacy.land <br /> Billy Ray-Ensero,Site Manager,bray(cbensero.com <br /> PAGE.1 OF 15 <br />
