The amount of soil in the stockpiles will vary in the extreme. <br />If we must pick a figure, we will estimate the cubic yards in <br />each stockpile will vary between zero and 15,000 depending on <br />what part of the mining stage and reclamation phase we are in <br />when amounts are estimated. <br />2. Our reclamation costs are based on area and slope. There are <br />no yardages available. <br />3. We plan to mix loamy soils with the Newlin-Satanta whenever we <br />have been able to retain sufficient quantities in stockpile. <br />However, in a few cases the multiple-phase reclamation plans <br />may preclude the ideal mix. We concur the mix is desirable. <br />We included Sideoats Grama, Little Bluestem and Cicer Milk- <br />vetch to handle any problems ~.ve might have with the Newlin <br />soils. <br />4. Our plans for the near future are for this area to be non- <br />irrigated pasture. Skunkbrush and mountain mahogany are less <br />than desirable in pastureland. The long range outlool: is for <br />the area to be developed residential, another use where the <br />subject shrubs are undesirable. We do not believe there will <br />be any erosion problems on these lands as long as our grass <br />stands are effective. Of course, this must be proved prior to <br />bond release. <br />Exhibit G <br />1. This intermittent creek will be shifted from its present course <br />by mining and reclamation, but it will not be blocked, nor will <br />the departure points from our property be changed. There will <br />be no downstream changes. <br /> <br /> <br />rory-geqt, Iqc <br />
