(Page 2) <br />MINE ID # OR PROSPECTING ID # M-1998-052 <br />INSPECTION DATE 7/17/02 <br />INSPECTOR'S INITIALS ESC <br />This was an inspection of the Rock Island Operation conducted by Erica Crosby of the <br />Division of Minerals and Geology. The operator was not present for the inspection. <br />The Rock Island Operation is located 8 miles northeast of Breckenridge in Summit County, <br />Colorado. The 110 Mining and Reclamation Permit was issued to Rock Island Land Co., LLC on <br />July 22, 1998 for a permit area of 9.9 acres. The postmining land use is Wildlife Habitat. <br />The Division holds a reclamation bond in the amount of $69,844.00. <br />The mining operation involves removing existing dredge tailings along the south banks of Swan <br />River. The dredge tailing piles range from 10 to 20 feet in height. No mining was taking <br />place during the inspection. A loader and portable screening unit were located on site, but <br />were not in use. It appears that a majority of the site has been mined. The pit floor is <br />nearly level and is surrounded by small piles of dredge tailings. A Technical Revision (TR- <br />01) was approved by the Division on April 6, 2001 that changed the reclamtion requirements <br />so revegetation of graded dredge piles is not required. <br />The Division was unable to locate a mine identification sign at the entrance to the site. <br />Rule 3.1.12 of the Construction Materials Rules and Regulations requires the operator to <br />post a sign clearly visible from the access road with the name of the Operator, a <br />statement that a reclamation permit for the operation has been issued by the Colorado <br />Mined Land Reclamation Board, and the permit number. Proof of compliance must be <br />submitted to the Division in the form of photographs by September 17, 2002. <br />I & E Contact Address <br /> ^ CE <br />NAME Mr. Sam McCleneghan ^ BL <br />OPERATOR Rock Island Land Co., LLC ^ FS <br />STREET P.O.
