EXHIBIT L <br /> RECLAMATION COSTS <br /> As mentioned in Exhibit D, only a portion of the site is disturbed at any time due to mining <br /> in stages and concurrent reclamation. This Mining Plan has been designed to limit the <br /> amount of handling of the topsoil and overburden material. <br /> In order to calculate the reclamation costs at any given time, we have selected two mining <br /> stages in Phase 2 of area A. Area B would be considered to still be in use. <br /> As stated in Exhibit D, Area A will be mined at a 31-1:1 V slope. No backfilling of the pond <br /> slopes will occur. <br /> If an operator default occurs, the dewatering pumps will be turned off and the pit will fill <br /> with groundwater. Therefore, any disturbed ground below the final lake elevation is not <br /> included in this cost estimate. Area B would be leveled, scarified, topsoiled with six <br /> inches of growth medium, and seeded. <br /> Summary of Reclametlon Costs <br /> Major Disturbance $ 4,977.25 <br /> Moderate Disturbance $ 31,245.75 <br /> Minor Disturbance $ 25,461.25 <br /> TOTAL RECLAMATION COSTS $ 61,684.25 <br /> Administrative Fee (15.8%) $ 9,746.11 <br /> Proposed Reclamation Bond $ 71,450.00 <br /> 1 Bonded Cost per Acre at 33.16 Acres $ 2,154.70 <br /> L-1 <br />
