<br /> <br />• iii iiiiiiiiiiiu iii <br />January 26, 1998 <br />JAN 2 9 1998 <br />Mr. Mike Long <br />State Director <br />Department of Minerals <br />And Geology <br />1313 Sherman Street, Room 215 <br />Denver, CO 80203 <br />Dear Mr. Long: <br />oElyC~. <br />F. <br />RECEIVED <br />Division of Minerals 8 Geolo9Y <br />Re: Stone Gravel Pit <br />Montezuma County, CO <br />M-97-089 <br />I am enclosing a copy of a letter to Calvin Joyner, BLM, Durango, CO and <br />supporting documents. I would appreciate your reading these documents to <br />help us determine if Mr. Stone was in violation of a "Notice of Intent to perform <br />exploration." <br />I understand that the Boazd will make the decision with regard to the "Notice of <br />Intent". I would like to make sure that your department has the sufficient <br />information with regazd to the number of test trenches that were dug. Wallace <br />Erickson indicated in his minerals inspection report that there were only four <br />or possibly five test trenches. <br />I have walked the land and I have found at least 15 (fifteen) and possibly <br />17(seventeen) test trenches. This would greatly change the amount of square <br />footage that was disturbed during exploration. Also, a number of roads have <br />been cut when a blade was dropped. We have photographs to verify this and <br />would be willing to shaze them with the Board. <br />Thank you for your consideration in this matter. <br />Sincerely, <br />~~~~ <br />Susie Campbell Bell <br />P. O. Box 312 <br />Cortez, CO 81321 <br />(970) 565-7916 <br />(970) 564-9219 <br />
