(Page 2) <br />MINE ID # OR PROSPECTING ID # M-1990-040 <br />INSPECTION DATE 07/18/02 <br />INSPECTOR'S INITIALS ESC <br />This was an inspection of the Stills on Patch Mine conducted by Erica Crosby of the Division <br />of Minerals and Geology. A permit has not been issued for the site because the performance <br />warranty and the financial warranty in the amount of $5,000.00 were never submitted to the <br />Division. <br />The Division obtained information from the Secretary of States Office to determine the status <br />of Colorado Mining/Smelting, Inc. According to the Secretary of State, the company does not <br />exist. <br />Attempts to contact the operator regarding the inspection failed. The Division inspected the <br />proposed site to determine if any mining was conducted. The proposed operation is located <br />in French Gulch approximately 4',4 miles north of Breckenridge in Summit County, Colorado. <br />The application submitted to the Division was in the form of a 110(2) Permit to affect 10 <br />acres in size. The mine was to be a gold operation. The Division noted no mining or <br />reclamation disturbance in the location of the site. The only disturbance noted in the area <br />is associated with a housing development under construction and road work along French Gulch. <br />Rule 4.1(2) of the Hard Rock/Metal Mining Rules and Regulations states that if the <br />Performance and/or Financial Warranties are not received within one calendar year of approval <br />for any new permit, the Board shall hold a hearing to reconsider the previous approval. The <br />Division recommended approval of the Stillson Patch Mine on May 15, 1990. The application has <br />been pending and awaiting the financial warranty in the amount of $5,000.00 for over 12 <br />years. The Division will schedule this matter at the next available Mined Land Reclamation <br />Board Hearing to reconsider its previous approval of the application. Notification to the <br />operator will be sent under separate cover. <br />I ~ 8 Contact Address <br /> j' CE <br />NAME Mr. J.
