A reduction in warranty was approved by the <br />Division of Minerals and Geology in June of 2003 (Revision SR-2) after a site inspection and <br />bond review. The Cotter Corporation has reviewed the sufficiency of the Financial Warranty <br />for Permit No. M-1977-300, the Schwartzwalder Mine, and has determined that the current <br />bond value of $104,083.00, held under Bond No. 0645104019148 of the State of Colorado, is <br />sufficient to cover all remaining DMG related reclamation costs. <br />A check in the amount of $550.00 is attached to this report as payment for the Reclamation <br />Permit No. M-1977-300 annual fee. <br />If you have any questions, or require additional information on the contents of this report, <br />please call Tim Pierce at (303) 642-3893 or Preston Niesen at (720) 554-6210. <br />Sim ly, <br />~~~ <br />Timothy .Pierce <br />EC/RSO - Schwartzwalder Mine <br />cc: Preston Niesen <br />
