SAFETY
On August 26, 2011 the Colorado Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety (Division) received your
Notice of Intent to Conduct Prospecting Operations (NOI) application for the above referenced site. The
Division conducted a technical review of the application and have identified items that must be addressed
prior to the approval of the NOI application. Please read and respond to each of the items listed below
and submit any additional or updated information or maps requested. All these items must be addressed
prior to November 14, 2011 (60 days from the date of this letter). If you need additional time to address
the items noted in this review, it will be your responsibility to request an extension of the decision date.
If the decision date arrives and there are still outstanding issues and no extension has been requested, the
Division will deny the NOI application and terminate the file.
The review consisted of comparing the application content with specific requirements of Rules 3 and 5 of
the Minerals Rules and Regulations of the Colorado Mined Land Reclamation Board for Hard Rock,
Metal and Designated Mining Operations.
1.) The property area drawn on maps; 12 -B, 13, and 14 appear to be drawn at a different scale than is
indicated on the map. Based on the dimensions of the map, the surface area was measured to be
approximately 17.4 acres not 13.95 acres. Please ensure the dimensions of the NOI boundary are drawn
to the correct scale and ensure the scale indicated on the map is correct.
2.) Please submit a new copy of map 12 -B to indicate the location where processing will occur on the
property.
3.) On page 4 of the application, Item #11 indicates the test holes will be two feet apart over the entire
13.95 acres. Will the proposed test holes be excavated exactly two feet apart? If so, a significant amount
of timber and vegetation would have to be removed overtime to accommodate this activity. Please
clarify, how the location of the test holes will be determined?
