EXHIBIT D 1 of 2 <br />CANSTjt& <br />7040 W. Hwy: 160 AlaMOM 00. 81101 (719)58&8871 <br />REVISED EXHIBIT D #2 <br />MINING PLAN <br />(A) Mining will be performed using standard earthmoving equipment. Jaw and cone <br />crushers along with screening plants, ground and stacking conveyors will be used <br />to process materials. One hundred percent of material obtained from the pit wall <br />can be processed through our equipment. No waste piles will be generated from <br />the mining operation. Mining in Phase IV will occur from South to North. Mining in <br />Phase V will occur from West to East. Mining in Phase VI will occur from North to <br />South. Mining in Phase VII will occur from North to South. <br />(B) Earthmoving shall be accomplished using dozers, scrapers or excavators to move <br />the material and rubber-tire loaders to feed the crushers and/or load material <br />directly into over-the-road trucks. <br />(C) No water diversion or impoundment's are necessary for this operation. <br />(D) The total area to be worked at any one time will be less than 15 acres. The 15 <br />acres does not include the 4.95 acre staging area. <br />(E). There is no definite timetable at which this project will be finished. The amount of <br />material that is available could last many years depending on local market <br />conditions and projects that are available to us. The operation will be an <br />intermittent operation. <br />(i). Each phase is estimated to be 3-5 years <br />(ii). The size of Phase IV reclamation will be 10.3 acres, Phase V <br />reclamation will be 10.3 acres, Phase VI reclamation will be 4.4 acres and Phase <br />VII will be 10.2 acres. <br />(iii). The sequence in each phase is the same and is as follows: <br />1. Remove 6" of topsoil <br />2. Stockpile topsoil to be available during reclamation <br />3. Stockpiled topsoil will be seeded using a broadcast method to protect <br />from erosion <br />4. 3 to 1 side slopes will be created in the reclamation process for each <br />phase. No more than 800 linear feet of vertical highwall will exist at <br />any time, with all others sloped at 3:1. <br />5. If excessive natural fines exist at time of reclamation, they will be <br />returned to the pit floor prior to the spreading of topsoil. <br />6. Topsoil will be spread a minimum of once per year to affected areas
