O'Connor: <br />FE8141983 <br />MINED LAND pECLAMATION <br />COLO. DEPT. OF NATURAL RESO~xCES <br />In reply to your queries of February 8, I trust the following <br />details will answer all your questions. <br />A. Exhibit A-Legal Description <br />1. Yes, the processing plant (about three acres) is located <br />in the N'~ SW~ SE's Sec. 5 T115 R80W. Yes the mine (pit) <br />is located in the SEA NE~G Sec 6 T115 R80W. <br />B. Exhibit B - Mining Plan <br />1. Some topsoil has been salvaged and stockpiled. However, <br />it appears that it is not enough to give a six to 12 inch <br />cover. That is why I included an extra cost of topsoil <br />in my Exhibit H. I have topsoil available. I would need <br />to haul it in. The stockpile is located at the NE side of <br />the pit. The stockpile will last longer than one year <br />and it will be seeded with the mixture shown in my recla- <br />mation plan. It will be sloped 3h:ly minimum. <br />2, Z will not mine more than 45 feet deep. The water table <br />at the pit is deeper than 65 feet. There will be no <br />problem with the ground water at the pit. <br />3. The road to the pit will not be upgraded. <br />4. I plan to mine ten years. The area will be reclaimed <br />a little at a time as I mine, therefore reclamation can <br />be completed the year following the year I terminate the <br />mining operation. <br />5. The water table is more than T5 feet below the processing <br />plant area. There is no interference with the ground water <br />at the processing plant. <br />
