r <br /> <br />strip cuts cannot be accurately defined in the mine plan. Only a general <br />• direction of mining can be shown (see Exhibit C). For example, Tract A <br />cannot be subdivided into separate time blocks, but only the general <br />southerly direction of mining can be indicated. To define time, phase, <br />or stage blocks would result in frequent changes in the mine plan <br />sequence and timetable as demands force the mining to occur in areas <br />outside the stage blocks. The annual report will accurately show what <br />was done in the preceeding year. <br />SEQUENCE OF MINING - Currently mining is being done in Tract C. Mining <br />will continue in this area for about the next 20 years. The direction <br />of mining will be up the canyon, primarily on the east side. Some <br />mining may occur on the west side of the canyon if marketable limestone <br />is found to occur in this area. <br />• Tract A-1 will be used throughout the life of the mine but no <br /> mining is planned for this area. <br />Mining in Tract A will begin in about 16 years. The mining <br />will begin in the vicinity of the boundary of Tracts A and C and will <br />proceed in a southerly direction across the main body of the existing <br />disturbance. Access to this area will be from the north (Tract C) for <br />the first portion of the term and from the south (Tract B) during the <br />last portion of the mining. At some point the processing facilities <br />in Tract A will be moved to the east so the material under these <br />facilities can be removed. The location of this move, which probably <br />will not occur until about the year 2030 has not been determined. <br />Tract B, which contains high calcium limestone and granite <br />will be mined intermittently beginning about 1985. It will continue <br />• until the year 2000. It is important to point out that the actual start <br />of mining in this area as well as the completion is subject to great <br />P-D-4 <br />
