RE: Application for Temporary Cessation of Mining Operations

Operation: Swallow Perlite Mine Permit No.: M-77-319
Pursuant to the requirement of Rule 1.13.6 of the Rules and Regulations of the Colorado
Mined Land Reclamation Board to inform counties and certain municipalities of the intention
of mining operators to put their mining operations into a state of temporary cessation of
mining, please be advised that Persolite Products has filed an application for temporary
cessation with the Colorado Division of Minerals and Geology for the mining operation
captioned above located in Section 6-T23S-R71W, Custer County.
The period of temporary cessation began on January 1, 1994, and may be extended for five
more years. The Notice contains information pertaining to the reasons for cessation of the
mining operation, a plan for resumption thereof, and the measures taken to comply with
reclamation and other necessary activities related to the performance standards of Rule 3 of
the Rules and Regulations in order to maintain the mine in a non-producing or non-
development state.
The receipt of the application for temporary cessation will be acknowledged in the monthly
activity report attached to the agenda of the next regularly-scheduled Board meeting unless
one or more of the following conditions occurs: 1. Reclamation performance standard issues
are indicated in the Notice of Temporary Cessation. 2. Such issues are indicated by a field
inspection of the site of the mining operation. 3. Such issues are indicated by a review of the
mining operation file. 4. Concerns are expressed about the notice by interested persons.
If one or more of the above conditions occur, the Division will place the Notice of Temporary
Cessation on the agenda for the Mined Land Reclamation Board meeting of March 26-27,
1997, During that meeting, the Board will consider whether or not to accept the notice. If
you have any questions, please contact me.
