ERICH RAUEER ?.E <br />°+TROFOCAUA K75nWED- TECH71CA11.Y PRUARED <br />MAYDAY MINE AND MILL S ITE, WILDCAT MINING CORPORATION <br />110(2) PERMIT, <br />March 12, 2010 Amendment M- 1981 -185 <br />EXHIBIT C <br />Mining Plan <br />Rule 6.3.3 <br />(1) (a) Specify the Estimated Dates that Mining Will Commence and End (Rule 6.3.3 (a)) <br />Mining the Mayday No and No. 2 will commence upon permit approval. Mining will continue <br />while economically feasible. Current reserve estimates suggest mining will continue for at least <br />20 years producing at a rate of 35 -100 tons a day, 24 hours a day, and 365 days a year. <br />(b) Soil Salvaging f or Reclamation Purposes (Rule 6.3.3 (b) and Rule 3.1.9) <br />The areas proposed for mining are disturbed and thus topsoil will not be salvaged during the <br />proposed mining operations. Suitable topsoil where depths of 6 inches exist and in areas <br />approved for disturbance will be salvaged and stockpiled in areas (Figure E -5) marked with <br />topsoil stockpile signs (Rule 6.3.3(1)(b)). If topsoil is encountered during maintenance activities, <br />surface vegetation will be removed and disposed or burned in accordance with County guidelines <br />(cL Waste Rock Ouantitv and Storaee (Rule 6.3.30)(c)) <br />10 Ore will be brought to the surface and crushed within the mill. No more than 5,000 cubic yards of <br />non acid producing ore will be stored on the Mayday No. 1 bench (See Figure E -5 for stockpile <br />location). Following collection of the concentrate (estimated at 1% of the total mined rock), the <br />waste rock will be returned to the worked out stopes in the vicinity of the Mayday Stope (see <br />Attached 43 -101 report, Attachment C -1) and disposed. Waste rock will be disposed <br />approximately 400 feet above the existing water table. Tailings generated during the process will <br />be slurried (50 -80% water to solid concentration) and disposed of in the old stopes. The <br />designated stopes have a storage capacity in excess of 1,000,000 cubic yards. A current estimate <br />of mine and waste rock production is estimated to be 9,100 tons /year (35 tons /day- average) over <br />the life of the mine. <br />(d)' Description of Deposit to be Mined (Rule 6.3.3 (1) (c) (d) (e)) <br />Three types of mineralization are distinguished in the permit area: highly disseminated epithermal <br />gold - silver - telluride thin veins [typically less than five (5) feet], limestone replacement deposits <br />and disseminated mineralization in porphyry. Underground mining will occur by conventional <br />cut - and -fill or shrinkage -stope trackless mining along existing veins of the Mayday No.l and <br />No.2 portals. As the extent of the deposits is unknown, development and exploration will occur <br />concurrently.
