By approximately October 3, 1988, we had reduced staff to those <br />necessary for care and maintenance of the mill, the mine, and the surface <br />facilities along with periodic carbon regeneration. For purposes of Rule 1.62, <br />we believe the 180-day period from the time of effectively temporarily ceasing <br />operations will end on or about March 31st of 1989. <br />The operations have been temporarily curtailed because of low silver prices. <br />We intend to maintain the Bulldog Mountain, and associated properties, until such <br />time as economic conditions permit us to return to active mining. Approximately <br />1,200,000 tons of ore remain. The ore contains an average of 14.2 ounces of <br />silver per ton and 1.9 percent lead. Mining and beneficiation operation could <br />be restarted with little additional preparation other than machine and equipment <br />startup. <br />L'7e -Intend t0 Co~i•ply with all app11C3F.le permit CCnditiC^S and 40 ;rl~int~in <br />those permits and other authorizations that are required. We have adequate <br />equipment on-site and available from contractors and other Homestake operations <br />to maintain erosion controls and conduct necessary repairs. <br />'Regeneration (reactivation) of carbon from the carbon-in-pulp metals <br />recovery process. <br />1726 COLE BOU LEVARD • GOLDEN,COLORADO 80<Ol • 13031277-0700 <br />
