<br />5.0 LABORATORY TESTING <br />5.1 WORK BY OTHERS <br />Rock mechanics testing on rock core from drill holes within the <br />permit boundary of Mt. Gunnison Mine No. 1 have been provided us <br />by ARCO. Samples were taken from 15 coreholes drilled in 1974 <br />and 1980 within the Mt. Gunnison Mine No. 1 lease. This testing <br />included compressive and tensile strengths, Elastic Modulus, <br />Poisson's ratio, and density tests. The results of this testing <br />can be seen in Appendix A, Tables A8- A15. <br />5.2 SITE-SPECIFIC CORE <br />In addition to the rock mechanics testing on the core from Mt. <br />• Gunnison Mine No. 1 testing was performed on core from Anchor <br />• <br />hole DH2 located within the Bear Mine No. 3 permit boundary. <br />Testing of this core consisted of unconfined compression tests, <br />Brazilian tests, modulus of rupture, Elastic Modulus and <br />determination of Poisson's ratio. Results of this testing can be <br />seen in Appendix A, Tables A3 - A6. <br />10 <br />
