The date of cessation is August 30, 1995. <br />b) The reason for non-production or cessation of the mining operation. We have not <br />used the pit to date, because we have not needed the source for a project. Our <br />company anticipates that we will put the source to use in the neaz future, due to the <br />depletion of our other material sources. <br />c) A plan Tor resumption of mining. We plan to start mining within the next one to two <br />years. We will notify the Division of Minerals and Geology in writing when we start <br />and stop the operation. Future annual reports will indicate any activity in the azea. <br />d) The measures to be taken to comply with reclamation requirements and/or other <br />activities related to the performance standards of section 3,1 while the mine is in <br />Temporary Cessation; and <br />• Our company will conduct a minimum of two inspections of the location per yeaz.
