EXHIBIT E <br /> Mining will occur in 5 acre blocks.No more than 15 acres will be open at one time. <br /> (III)An Outline Of The Sequence In Which Each Stage Or Phase of Reclamation Will Be Carried Out. <br /> See Table E.(C).1,Reclamation Plan <br /> (IV) Demonstrate A Reasonably Foreseeable End Date <br /> 80 acres of mineable ground will take approximately 5 years and will aim to cease by or before anuary 1,2030; <br /> with an additional 5 years of ecological monitoring. Setting the final completion date as January 1,2035. <br /> (F) Reclamation Descriptions <br /> (i) Final grading <br /> Maximum slope of reclamation will be 5:1. <br /> (ii) Seeding <br /> Seeding to Occur in October and April each year.Seed to applied with imprinter/seeder combination see Image E.(F).1 <br /> Imprint Seeder.Seed mix application at a rate of 2 pounds Pure Live Seed(PLS) per acre.Approved Seed Mix see Table <br /> E.(F).1 Seed Mix. <br /> (iii) Fertilization <br /> At present,The West Side Placer Project has decided not to use any fertilizers in the reseeding and restoration <br /> processes to preserve the natural integrity of the soil and its existing nutrient balance. This approach aligns <br /> with our environmental sustainability goals and minimizes the risk of chemical runoff that could affect the <br /> surrounding ecosystems. <br /> Contingent Use of Fertilizers: <br /> • Should future assessments indicate a deficiency in essential soil nutrients that cannot be remediated by <br /> natural processes,we may consider the application of fertilizers.Any fertilizer used will comply with the best <br /> practices for environmental protection and adhere to Colorado's agricultural regulations. Only organic or <br /> other environmentally friendly fertilizers approved for use in Colorado will be considered to ensure they do <br /> not adversely affect the local flora and fauna. <br /> This precautionary approach ensures that any future use of fertilizers will be judicious, scientifically justified,and <br /> closely monitored to maintain ecological balance and soil health. <br /> (iv) Re-vegetation <br /> 37 <br /> HARDROCK/METAL MINING REGULAR(112)APPLICATION AuPt Industries LLC I PO Box 1424-Edwards,Colorado 81632 I 970 306 1784 <br />
