TECHNICAL REVISION <br />Ruby Trust Mine <br />Permit NO. M-1979-181 <br />Mount Sneffels Mining Company, LLC. <br />is requesting a technical revision to Permit <br />No. M-1979-181, the Ruby Trust Mine. A crushing <br />area has been added to the area just outside the <br />underground mill ( see attached surface plan map). <br />This location has been used as a crushing area by <br />the previous owner; Walker Mining, during the mid <br />1980's <br />No ore will be stockpiled on the surface at this <br />crushing location. The crushing operations include <br />a concrete foundation with jaw and conecrushers, <br />sizing screens, and conveyors. All ore is crushed <br />and conveyed underground for mechanical classification <br />and precious metal recovery. Tailings will be placed <br />underground in an old stope. Tailings will be de- <br />watered with the water returned to the milling <br />process. <br />When mining is completed and reclamation begins <br />the crushing equipment and foundation will be re- <br />moved. The area will be recontoured and seeded <br />according to the original reclamation plan.
