The Brown Derby Mine is a pre-law mine, dating back to the 1930's, and is located <br />approximately 16 miles east of Gunnison in the NW 1/4 of the NE 1/4 of Section 3, T49N, R3E, <br />NMPM, Gunnison County. The proposed 0.5 acre permit area is limited to the main pre-law portal <br />and portions of the waste rock mine bench and portions of the mine access road. Pre-law mining <br />disturbances surround the permit area. The applicant holds the claim for the mineral rights. BLM <br />manages the surface lands of the proposed permit area and surrounding areas. <br />Public notice, required by Rule 1.6.2(111b-, was posted. Proposed affected area was delineated <br />by survey markers. Subsequent to DMG's approval of the application, and prior to commencement <br />of the mining operation, the operator is required to post and maintain a mine identification sign and <br />affected area perimeter markers, please review Rule 3.1.12. <br />Pre-law portal was dry, no water was impounded in or near the portal, no discharge noted. <br />Proposed permit areas affected by pre-law mining activities appeared stable, evidence of slope <br />failure or excessive erosion/sedimentation were not observed. Evidence of minor rock fall and <br />minor erosion/sedimentation were observed at the existing portal highwall. <br />Permanent man-made structures within the proposed affected area and within 200' of the permit <br />area were limited to the pre-existing access road, steel grate closures on the portals, and historic <br />mining related structures, as identified within the permit application. <br />I & E Contact Address cc: Tom Gillis, DMG <br />^ CE <br />NAME Ms Glvnda Yoder ^ BL <br />OPERATOR Precious Offerfnas Metal Exchange.
