Banks and Gesso. LLC <br />Exhibit D -Mining Plan <br />Overview <br />Silt Sand & Gravel wishes include 163 acres in the permit boundary, of which <br />approximately 110 acres will be mined. Accessory facilities, such as an office in the <br />former residence on the property, are incorporated into this Mining Plan (see Exhibit C). <br />The reclamation of the property will be done concurrently with mining as mining <br />progresses generally north and west. For planning purposes, the market for <br />construction materials from the proposed resource is 500,000 tons per year. <br />Phase Mined <br />Acreage Years to mine* <br />1A 1.72 acres 0.10 <br />1 B 26.42 acres 2.50 <br />2 16.86 acres 1.75 <br />3A 39.50 acres 4.00 <br />3B 1 15.36 acres 1.75 <br />3B 2 10.30 acres 1.00 <br />TOTAL 110.16 acres <br />* Subject to market conditions <br />*' Phase 3B includes (1) area to be mined and <br />processed on-site and (2) area to be mined <br />and pit run hauled after processing equipment <br />is removed <br />Description of Overburden. Deaosit and Underlvina Stratum <br />Topsoil on the proposed reclamation permit site is highly variable, consisting of a dusting <br />of soil in some eastern reaches of the site up to 48 inches of topsoil cover in other <br />locations. <br />The alluvial deposit consists of sand and natural gravel, as well as larger unconsolidated <br />stone material. Other than topsoil in limited areas, no significant overburden covers the <br />deposit. <br />Minina Methods <br />The proposed method of mining is surface extraction, typical of shallow alluvial deposits. <br />Due to the presence of groundwater in the deposit, dewatering, as detailed below, is <br />Grand River Park Project 05021 <br />Silt Sand 8 Gravel LLC 7 May 2006 <br />
