• <br />EXHIBIT B: Mining Plan <br />The Phoenis: mine is a pre-existing mine that has had <br />considerable production in the past (1935 to 1942). The <br />old workings consist of open stopes that are in good <br />condition. <br />All waste rock from the new workings will be stored <br />permanently in old underground stoped and serve as ground <br />support. The waste products from the ore dressing facility <br />will be returned to the mine and stored in the old stopes. <br />Use of the surface near the portal will be confined <br />to surface plant equipment, such as the air compressor, <br />water tank, and air recieving tank. Ore will be stored in <br />the pre-existing ore bins prior to shipment. Ore bins and <br />plant equipment were in place before the Mines Land <br />Reclamation Law,> came into being. The ore dressing facility <br />will be designed for a 10-ton per day capacity. <br />Extraction will begin from pre-existing underground <br />workings. New surface disturbances will be confined to <br />the area used for the ore dressing (mechanical upgrading <br />process) facility and a settling pond placed on the pre- <br />existing dump. See Figure 2. <br />The proposed date of commencement is April 15. 1982, and <br />the proposed date of completion is May 1, 2082. <br />
