Carol Russell -2- .Ianu.rry 22, 1982 <br />Overburden Geochemistry <br />The applicant has collected sufficient overburden yeochemistriJ data Cor the <br />areas of current mining in the southern portion oC thr. proposed permit area. <br />Ifowever, no such data has been collected 'or the North Pit (sec ;9.vp 15 of the <br />permit application). Once ayai.n, since mining will not ncrur in thi; aeea <br />until 1984, .i feel that the data could be c:oLlcct!~d nlomr with thn on-going <br />exploration program. Therefore, I have no addi Ci onn l adequacy rrnruients <br />regarding the collection of overburden gcochc_rnistn/ rlato. i Ceel that we could <br />yo ahead and approve the mining and stipulate the addit.ivnal data gathering <br />requirements. <br />A meeting should be scheduled with the appli<<int to discuss, thn s/rerifirs of <br />the data gathering requirements mentioned abnvc. The applicant proposes to <br />drill some exploration holes in the vicinity of the North fit, this ,pring. <br />Ffuch of the needed hydrology and overburden geochemistry ~1ata could be obtained <br />concurrently with the exploration drilling. <br />/mt <br />cc: Ed Bischo.`f <br />David .Shelton <br /> <br />
