December 3, 2009 <br />CO Division of Reclamation, Mining & Safety <br />1313 Sherman St., Room 215 <br />Denver, CO 80203 <br />Subject: Venture Resources' Hukill Gulch Millsite Application <br />Dear DRMS Board and Staff: <br />I am writing to show my MWort for Venture Resources' proposed operation, the HUM Gulch Miillsite 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 indastsy 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 13& <br />Anniversary of the discovery of gold in Clear Creels County. <br />I am familiar with Venture Resources' project, and am specifically aware that: <br />e A mineral processing mill and tailings impoundment's proposed. <br />• The project will be processing abandoned mine waste rock- <br />. This is a local company that plans on hiring local residents and supporting local businesses. <br />By processing abandoned mine waste rock andremoving the acid forming and heavy metal cwftn Hams, the <br />proposed project will go a long way to beginning to improve the conditions of the Clear Creek watershed. Finally, a <br />pro-ac 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 proceed, without delay, in approving the permit for this proposed operation <br />Sincerely, <br />Printed:�� <br />Address: CO tJt f - b'r- z C-0 FJZ137 -7 5"�O <br />
