<br /> <br />Corporation comprises three non-contiguous tracts <br />separated by distances of 1.5 to 8 miles. Despite this <br />geographical detachment, all three tracts are <br />characterized by similar climate, topography, and <br />geologic setting and, thus, appear to have generally <br />similar hydrologic characteristics. <br />Tracts C-22644 and C-26913 lie on a moderately <br />dissected dipslope surface adjacent to the currently <br />active Energy Fuels Pit d1 (Figure 4), The land sur- <br />face slopes generally northwestward at a gradient of <br />about 700-1,000 ft/mi (feet per mile). Stream valleys <br />cut into this surface drain generally northward at a <br />gradient of 400-900 ft/mi, Runoff from the north to <br />northwest-facing slopes collects in an unnamed inter- <br />mittent stream that flows northeastward approximately <br />paralleling the course of Foidel Creek about half a <br />mile further northwest, This unnamed stream turns <br />northeastward and joins Foidel Creek near the base of <br />Pinnacle Peak just north of tract C-26913, Essentially <br />all streams draining those parts of the txo tracts that <br />xould be mined are ephemeral, except during years of <br />high snowfall when prolonged runoff from the north- <br />facing slopes continues into early summer. <br />Tract C-22676 is divided into xestern and eastern <br />34 <br />
