Response: <br />Please see the support letter from Mineral County stating that they have reviewed the Plan of <br />Operation and are in support of this activity and access. <br />Exhibit is a general information guide regarding the technique of reverse circulation drilling. An <br />informative guide valuable to our resource specialists. <br />Response: <br />Although the reverse circulation (RC) rig has not been identified for the project, we expect that <br />the reverse circulation rig will be truck mounted, and since the holes are less than 450 feet in <br />length (the holes will be inclined and not be going 450 feet vertical). <br />Exhibit is a reduced scale USGS topographic map showing Creede and the general vicinity of the proposed <br />operations. No proposed operational data other than the unexplained notation of a "site" lacking any <br />further description. An unreduced (or less- reduced scale) version would be valuable particularly if it <br />contained plots of all the access, pad information, and other operational data. <br />Response: <br />The operations plan shows the general vicinity of the proposed operations along with insets <br />showing the location and grading of the proposed pads. <br />Exhibit is a company-surveyed (?) partial topographic map of the area of proposed operations showing one <br />of the four drill pads. The site is unnumbered. <br />Response: <br />See the enclosed operation plan (Exhibit D) for numbering and location of each pad. <br />Exhibit is an illegible to barely legible company-surveyed (?) partial topographic map <br />similar to Exhibit G showing what appears to be the four drill pads but not clearly identified or annotated. <br />Exhibit is a company-surveyed (?) partial topographic map similar to Exhibits G and H apparently <br />intended showing some generalized aspects of the proposed reclamation plan. Actual reclamation will be <br />keyed to specific sites and site conditions depending on the resource disturbance. <br />Response: <br />We understand <br />6
