Recent prospecting activities have also been carried out (under MLRD- <br />issued Prospecting Permit P2004-006) in areas east of the Mount Royale <br />No. 1 Adit, and a potential second adit location has been ident'fiied in the <br />vicinity of the former Atanta Mine. It is situated within the SE '/. of the SE <br />%. of Section 12, Township 1 North, Range 72 West of the 6"' Principal <br />Meridian, Boulder County, Colorado. Elevation generally ranges from <br />7,600 to 7,830 feet amsl. The area indudes the former Five Points <br />Tunnel site at the Atlarrta Mine and related underground entries or <br />surface exposures, as well as associated waste rock piles. Mount Royale <br />Ventures, LLC has not yet determined a schedule for adit development in <br />this area; however, the probable adit location (which has been assigned <br />the name "Mount Royale No. 2") is anticpated to be in the general area of <br />the former Atlanta Mine adit. The adit would likely be driven in a generally <br />north-northwesterly direction. Mount Royale Ventures, LLC has also <br />made provision for necessary surtace area to support associated portal <br />area infrastructure fadlities at this location. <br />11.

Designated Chemicals and/or Acid Mine Drainage <br />The Cash and Who Do Mine Project will not use °designated chemicals° <br />as it does not incorporate extractive metallurgical processing within the <br />Permit Area. <br />The Cash and Who Do Mine Project will not disturb "acidic or toxic- <br />fortning materials". Further, the Cash and Who Do Mine Project does not <br />currently exhibit "acid mine drainage"; the planned disturbances are not <br />anticipated to encounter "acidic or toxic-forming materials"; and, the <br />mining operation is not anticipated to result in "acid mine drainage°. <br />[Note: Refer also to Exhibit C -Item (k) and Exhibit M (Miller Report) for <br />supplemental information in this regard] <br />14. Description of Project <br />The Cash and Who Do Mine Project essentially modifies underground <br />mining activity at the Cash and Who Do Mines from shaft production to <br />adit production. The proposed operation will differ from prior operations in <br />that primary underground mine production will be carried out via the new <br />adit entry (initiated as an exploration adit in late 2004), as opposed to the <br />former hoisting operations that were previously conducted through the <br />Cash Mine shaft. <br />Application 5 <br />
