EXHIBIT L - Reclamation Costs <br />Reclamation Costs: <br />See the attached mine reclamation map (Exhibit F) showing the proposed gradient of all disturbed slopes and the <br />location of re-vegetation areas. It is anticipated that no ponds will be constructed or remain on site; however the <br />reclaimed pit will infrequently intercept surface runoff which may pond for short periods of time before infiltrating <br />to the ground water table. It is anticipated that the average thickness of overburden is minimal, however, overburden <br />and excavated soil materials unsuitable for road construction will be use to backfill excavated areas and for site re- <br />grading to stable slopes. Stockpiled topsoil will be placed on re-graded areas prior to re-seeding with approved plant <br />type seed mixes. Final site reclamation costs include the cost of native dry land grass seed and mulch application. <br />The mining plan includes concurrent regrading of mined areas. It is anticipated that final grading and placement of <br />topsoils from on-site stockpiles followed by re-seeding will cost less than $25,000. <br />MADAVE B\Pierce North\DMG permit\Exhibits-Revl.doc 8/21/2009
