` EXHIBIT I- Soils Information <br />Referring to the vegetation map accompanying Exhibit J, E'igure <br />J-1, soils at the Schwartzwalder Mine project site (specifically, <br />the SE1/4 of Section 25) are part of the Rock outcrop-Juget-Baller <br />association (U.S.D.A., 1975). The rock outcrop series consist of <br />steep slopes and cliffs scattered throughout the study site. Such <br />outcrops are composed of granite and sandstone here. <br />The Juget series is soil that is shallow and well-drained. <br />Tnese soils are derived as a sandy residuum and decomposed granite. <br />They are deposited on ridges and slopes (about 10-55a grade) in the <br />western three-fourths of the project area. A profile of the upper <br />surface layer varies from 0-6 inches in depth, and consists of ~i <br />• dazk-gray gravelly sandy loam, The underlying 6-12 inches are :i <br />brown, gravelly loamy sand. Granite lies below this layer. <br />The Haller series are also shallow, well-drained soils. These <br />soils are located in eastern one-fourth of the SE1/4 of Section 25. <br />The soils are formed on the slopes (about 10-35~ grade) in a loamy <br />residuum weathered from Fountain Formation sandstone. The soil ~ro- <br />file reveals a surface Sayer 0-10 inches thick, consisting of a ~~rayish- <br />brown stony sandy loam. The underlying 10-15 inches are a light <br />brownish-gray stony sandy loam. He low this layer is sandstone. <br />• <br />
