<br /> <br /> Exhibit "C" -- Mining Plan <br /> This is an existing quarry site, that was permitted by <br /> us until 1999 when we released it to expand our other quarry <br /> site. There has been mining at this site off and on for 90 years. <br /> There are two types of stone that were quarried at this site <br /> 30 to 40 years ago, they are Dolomite and sandstone. The quarries <br /> that we are reopening are the sandstone quarries. <br /> The north permit area encompasses the full valley area where <br /> the exposed stone wall of the old quarry is located covering 1/2 <br /> of the east ridge and the full ridge to the west. <br /> The south permit area is approximatly 1000 feet due south <br /> of the north area. It also is an any old quarry site, with the <br /> new permit covering the ridge above and below the existing site. <br /> We will need to remove approximatly 500 tons of dolomite <br /> overburden and will use it for road fill on the site. <br /> A. Estimated mining dates are 9/1/00 to 01/01/2100 <br /> B. Soil in the mining site is minimal, a very rocky/sandy <br /> material with very little topsoil on site. <br /> C. All soils/overburden will be removed to expose the <br /> stone, it will be pushed to the base of the hill and be <br /> leveled off to use as a work/storage platform. This is where <br /> it will be stored until needed to reclaim the quarry. The <br /> present thickness of the overburden/soil is estimated to <br /> range from 1° to 36" . <br /> D. Estimated thickness of the deposit is 40 to 60 feet <br /> 8. Major components of the mining site are the existing <br /> roadway and the existing quarry. <br /> F.Existing quarry site has one high wall about 35 feet long <br /> by 12 feet high and a small rubbel pile 10 by 30 feet, 4 <br /> feet deep. The south site has a partial roadway leading to <br /> it and a very small 10' by 10' disturbed area. <br /> G. No new roads planned or improvments <br /> H. No water used in operation <br /> I. No water sources on site <br /> J. N/A <br /> R. N/A <br /> L. Hydrologic balance should not be affected by operations <br /> M. No material will be processed on site <br /> N. Primary material to be mined is sandstone for building <br /> materials. Secondary material is Dolamite is only a <br /> by-product and will only be used as fill on-site. <br /> O.
