Typical soil profile descrivtions and may unit descric-
tions are vresent in the mine plan for all or the soils
occurring within the mine elan area except:
CryoboroLls-Rock Outcrop comples, Torriorther.ts-
Rock Oucerop cor:.plex, and Skywa;~ loam. These
descripcior.s adequacel;~ describe. Che soils iP. the
mire plan area.
The parameters anal•~zed and the classificaticns fcr
• too soil suitability were determined by followir.e
the ?Jyoming Department of environmental Qualic•~
Guidelines as shown in Table 30. Table 79 presents
topsoil suitability ratings. :to Laboratory data
is presented to substantiate the suitability rati::gs
for the following soils:
Aaberg - Waybe complex
Abor - Moyerson complex
3inco silty clay loam
Cochetopa loma
Coucis fine sandy loam
Roxa1 Variant - Lvmanson
Venable loam
Storman complex
Suitability ratings for soils having laboratory data
were determined by comparing parameter ranges with
D.D.Q. guidelines Table 30.
1. pH; Soils anal,:zed have good to =air ?H
values except 2 samples of Aaberg
silty c'_ay 3 horizon (pH 5.3-5.4 ocor).
Mixing of the subsoils; however, could
dilute this low pH soil.
