December 3, 2009 <br />CO Division of Reclamation, Mining & Safety <br />1313 Sherman St., Room 215 <br />Denver, CO 80203 <br />Subject: Venture Resources' Huk ill Gulch Millsite Application <br />Dear DRMS Board and Staff: <br />I am writing to show my supgort for Venture Resources' proposed operation, the Hukill Gulch Millsite project. <br />As a Colorado resident, I am pleased to see renewed hardrock metal mining activity in Clear Creek county. In <br />today's troubled economy, homegrown business and industry will help our local economies. Mining in this area <br />carries a long tradition; a tradition that ultimately brought Colorado into statehood This year marked the 150` <br />Anniversary of the discovery of gold in Clear Creek County. <br />I am familiar with Venture Resources' project, and am specifically aware that: <br />o A mineral processing mill and tailings impoundment is proposed. <br />The project will be processing abandoned mine waste rock. <br />v This is a local company that plans on hiring local residents and supporting local businesses. <br />By processing abandoned mine waste rock and removing the acid forming and heavy metal contaminants, the <br />proposed project will go a long way to beginning to improve the conditions of the Clear Creek watershed. Finally, z <br />pro-active solution instead of the current ones that do little, or nothing. Covering up the problem or just: spending <br />tax dollars studying it does not solve the problem. <br />I would like to encourage the DRMS to pro out delay, in approving the permit for this proposed operation. <br />Sincerely <br />Printed: `� v <br />Address: <br />A <br />
