1 <br />1 <br />1 <br />1 <br />t <br />EXHIPIT D <br />MINING FLAN <br />Mining will include two distinct areas. The eastern most <br />portion of the affected area is a previously disturbed placer <br />mine. This area will be removed and reclaimed to a better <br />condition than currently e;:ists, The westerly area is virgin <br />territory and will be reclaimed in accordance with the <br />reclamation plan, e:;hi6it E. <br />The original area mined was placered by a floating dredge. <br />The results indicate a mining operation similar to open pit <br />mining. The proposed mining will also be the open pit type <br />operation. <br />I <br />Earthmoving will be the major operation during mining. <br />Material from the first trench will be hauled by trucF:: to the <br />processing site for crushing and/or stockpiling. Topsoil from II <br />trench 1 will be stoc4::piled in the area of Fhase II as shown <br />tisheet ~ of 4). These materials will be used in reclamation of ~~` <br />`~ ; <br />Fhase III trenches. The trenches will be back:filled from the L <br />abandone ~-i-ng-piles left from the original mining operations. ~ (, <br />This will allow remining of the original placer site. The second ~~~I1 <br />pass will be similar to the first. The third pass will leapfrog <br />to the east and again be similar to the first by backfilling with <br />tailaings from the original mine site. <br />There will be no new water impoundments constructed as a <br />part of 'the m:ini.r~g operation=_. <br />Mining passes will be 1.' acres each.
