6 (Form 2- Public) <br />Describe the estimated topsoil depth and how topsoil will be salvaged, stockpiled and redistributed for the re-establishment of <br />vegetation. Specify approximate topsoil redistribution depth: <br />Topsoil in the NOI area is estimated to be 40-60 cm thick. <br />If leveling of pads is necessary topsoil will be stockpiled for <br />replacement during reclamation to ensure re-establishment of <br />vegetation. <br />4. Describe how drill holes will be plugged (refer to Rule 5.4 of the Rules for required abandonment procedures): <br />Each drill hole will be abandoned in a manner far exceeding the minimum requirements <br />described by the Colorado State Mineral Rules and Regulations Rule 5. We will cement <br />the bottom 70% of each hole or to the top of the mineralized geological units which ever is <br />of greater thickness. Above the cernerited partion "Baruid Shur-yel" or equivalent berito <br />Materi-al desigR feF IDG-re hp-le abandE)Rment, will be Inserted and felled the re i i <br />-11 "1 <br />volume. A surface cap of cement will be placed in the hole to a depth of 5-40 feet. Each <br />cement cap will be accompanied by metal washer. The washer will be stamped with the <br />drill hole number and left at the surface for later identification. <br />5. Describe how portals, adits, shafts, ponds, excavations, or other disturbances will be reclaimed (refer to Rule 3 and Rule 5 for <br />specific reclamation performance standards). You may wish to contact the Division for closure specifications. <br />Mud pits will be given time to evaporate and settle before being back filled. Once back <br />filled the mud pits will then be allowed to settle again and further dry out before final <br />recontouring of the disturbance. In the weeks following the completion of drilling the <br />disturbance will be recontoured to best inatch the original topography arid the topsuil will <br />be replaGed. FiRally, all the dist6iFbaRGeS will be reseeded at the sarne time UPOR <br />completion of the drilling season. <br />6. Describe how roads will be reclaimed or returned to their pre-prospecting (or better) condition: <br />Road disturbances will most likely be confined to two track paths in grassy fields, which will <br />be reseeded upon completion of the drill program. In the event of road construction, upon <br />completion of the drill program all roads will be recontoured to best match the original <br />topography arid reseeded.
