MINING PLAN • . EXHIBIT D IcoNT.) <br />As mining progresses around the property the bank slopes <br />will be mined to the required slopes when they are in their final <br />location. Since the floor of the mined area will be level no <br />additional work will be necessary to shape it into final form. <br />This will reduce the amount of work that has to be done to <br />reclaim the site, leaving only recoiling and revegetation. This <br />plan of operation will continue until all material is removed. <br />The EXHIBIT L - RECLAMATION COST ESTIMATE is based on there being 20.00 <br />acres ± disturbed at any one time on the mine. <br />There should be no unusual dust control problems on the <br />site. One can only estimate the amount of water needed for dust <br />control at this time, and since there is no water on the site we <br />will be hauling it into the site from a source approved for that <br />use. Most of the water used for dust control will be used on <br />haul roads. On a typical operation of this type an operator may <br />use from 5 to B ac-ft per year for dust control. Please refer to <br />EXHIBIT G -WATER for the discussion of how water will be used at <br />the site. <br />MINING TIMETABLE <br />The uncertainty of how long it will take to develop markets <br />for this rock makes it difficult to forecast the life of this <br />mining operation. We therefore, elect to estimate the mining <br />timetable based on an average year and expect a specific year to <br />vary widely from the average. if there are changes in the mining <br />timetable we will discuss the reasons for the change in the <br />annual report that follows the change and modify it then. <br />EST/MATED M/NING T/METABLE <br />t <br />Stage ESTIMATED <br />YEARS TOTAL <br />AREA TOTAL <br />MINED SET- <br />BACKS ROADS <br />1 BO-100 142.52 117.24 3.51 7.03 <br />2 90-120 187.17 174.74 5.71 6.72 <br />Totals 80-120 329.69 291.98 9.22 13.75 <br />14 <br />
