CJ <br />MINE ID # OR PROSPECTING ID # M-96-079 <br />INSPECTSbN DATE 04/12/99 <br />INSPECTOR'S INITIALS ESC <br />This was an inspection of the Barnard Quarry conducted by Erica Crosby of the Colorado <br />Division of Minerals and Geology. Chester Barnard of Barnard Quarries was present during the <br />inspection. Weather conditions on site were clear and warm. Ground conditions were dry. <br />The mine site is located roughly 3 miles north of Lyons on Steamboat Mountain. The permit <br />area is 5.6 acres in size. The permit boundary was marked, with exception to the northeast <br />corner. The operator will need to mark the north east corner of the permit area. A mine <br />identification sign was posted, and all information appeared accurate. <br />The quarry was actively being mined using hand labor and loaders. Mining is taking place <br />from the southwest to the northeast, following the contour of the hill. Overburden material <br />is roughly 4 feet to a feet thick. The material is removed and placed east and south in the <br />permit area to be used later for reclamation. The storage of overburden material is <br />progressing towards the south. If the operator intends to store overburden and topsoil <br />material outside the permit area, the 110c application will need to be amended to incorporate <br />additional acreage. <br />The reclamation plan states that slopes will be reclaimed to 4h:1v and 3h:ly. It appears <br />sufficient overburden exists to reclaim the quarry to this slope. The Division currently <br />holds a certificate of deposit in the amount of $6,100.00, which is an adequate bond at this <br />point in time. <br />I & E Contact Address <br />NAME Chester Harnard <br />OPERATOR Barnard Quarries <br />STREET P.O.
