~ y ~, <br />SUMMARY OF 2002 ACTIVITIES <br />Active mining continued at the new mine during the year. Reclamation re-sloping <br />and hydro-seeding of was completed on approximately 3 acres of a previous haul road <br />location re-sloped for reclamation. An additional catch bench above the active mining <br />azea was also hydro-seeded for reclamation. <br />At the old mine azea, reclamation backfill, sloping and hydro- seeding was <br />completed on approximately 4 acres of the lower area above County Road #51. Backfill <br />and sloping continued on the top azea but nothing there was completed to the point where <br />hydro-seeding could be applied. <br />The portion of Eagle County Road #51 which serves as a haul road was treated <br />with a lignosite dust suppressant as per BLM Plan of Operations #CO-078-0-3P. Road <br />base material was replaced on worn areas of the road at that time. <br />Approximately 550,000 tons of gypsum rock were shipped from the mine during <br />2002. <br />n <br />
