General Mine Plan Compliance <br />The mine remains in temporary cessation awaiting coal from the Lorencito Canyon <br />mine. The Lorencito permit was issued November 7, 1997. Exploration work in <br />progress at the Lorencito Canyon mine should determine whether mining operations <br />would re-start at the New Elk mine. <br />Subsidence <br />The small subsidence collapse above culvert C24 at the West mine area has re- <br />opened. It is approximately three (3) feet in diameter and about ten (10) feet <br />deep. This hole should be repaired as soon as possible to prevent surface water <br />from entering the old underground workings. <br />Overall, the site continues to be well maintained and no significant problems were <br />noted. <br />4 <br />
