~ III IIIIIIIIIIIIIIII ~ <br />999 <br />EXHIBIT D <br />Mining Plan - Mining is being and will be accomplished by surface earthmoving <br />machines, primarily with a rubber-tired front-end loader dumping into tractor- <br />trailer dump trucks. Extraction of the dry alluvial material will be less than <br />20,000 tons per year. <br />Approximately two (2) acres of the site may be considered as a major <br />disturbance area, including both the excavated area and the stockpile. The <br />remainder of the area will either be undisturbed or only slightly disturbed. <br />The mined area is above any ground water. Therefore, this would be considered <br />a "dry pit" operation. <br />Useable material is near the surface, with little or no overburden. It is <br />relatively fine-grained, with 1009 passing a 1" sieve. The meager topsoil, <br />less than 6" thick, has been and will be pushed aside into small mounds by <br />dozers and front-end loaders for future replacement. <br />Current operations are taking place in Section 1 (same pastureland, just one <br />section north), File No. 81-286. <br />
