CLEAN UP PLAN FOR THE JOKER MINE File No. CO-016-PO-83-1 Mining & Minerals II, Ltd., as operator of record, submits the following plan to clean up the referenced site. We propose to complete implementation of the plan prior to October 31, 1998. 1. All barrels located along the northwest side of the laboratory building will be emptied of the contents by placing on the existing stockpile of ore for processing. 2. The empty barrels will then be disposed of by sending them to the nearest approved sanitary land fill. 3. Existing ditches or drainage pipes will be cleaned out to provide drainage. 4. Old equipment, car bodies, etc., on the site will be removed and either sold or hauled to a junk yard. 5. The mine access road to the county road and the drainage ditches will be maintained. 6. The water wells will be checked to insure they are suitable for any testing that may be required. 7. We would like to request that the pilot plant building previously used by Marathon Gold that contains the mill equipment be allowed to remain as we are in the process of attempting to sell the unnecessary processing equipment. We are enclosing a list of the companies that buy and sell mining equipment which we plan to contact relative to this equipment. 8. We also request the laboratory building be available for us to use as a place to garage our equipment when not in use. This will provide a secure building for storage of equipment and necessary supplies. 9. We will have several pieces of equipment in the new mining operation and request we be allowed to utilize the existing shop building for minor repairs as required. 10. Our office would also utilize space in the laboratory building along with any lab equipment that may be necessary. 11. With reference to the existing ponds, we would anticipate leaving them in place during the pilot-scale testing in order to facilitate possible future expansion without disturbing areas previously reclaimed.
