I <br /> RECEIVED <br /> OCT 211000 <br /> DELTA COUNTY Division of Minerals and Geology <br /> TRIANTOS GRAVEL PIT <br /> 2000 Annual Report <br /> No. M-78-304 <br /> Approximately 1.1 acres were mined at Triantos Pit during 2000. No reclamation was <br /> done at the pit. The area left by the 2000 mining will be used for additional product stockpiles. <br /> Triantos Pit is one of several operated by Delta County and is mined as needed for county projects <br /> or gravel reserves. Delta County crushes and processes the gravel in each pit with a portable <br /> crushing plant. Usually crushing at a single pit occurs on a bi-yearly basis, however, demand for <br /> gravel may necessitate crushing again in Triantos Pit during the year 2001. If so, approximately <br /> 0.62 acres would be effected. The operator may elect to remove over burden from the area to be <br /> mined, but not mine the exposed gravel until a later year. The operator intends to preserve the <br /> ramped roadway along the south edge of the Phase I gravel deposit for vehicle and equipment <br /> access to the top level of the pit. The ramp will be mined at a later date. <br />
