Paul Daggett: <br />How will you determine that? <br />Paul Daggett: <br />How could you affect that well? <br />37 <br />Jerry Daub: <br />From the data from the alluvial well, from the water quality and water level data. <br />Paul Daggett: <br />Oh, you're talking about your alluvial monitoring well? Not your wells that you'll be using <br />in your production. <br />Jerry Daub: <br />We don't anticipate any surface water in the alluvium from the mining operation. <br />Paul Daggett: <br />Well, what about your water pumping from the water supply wells? <br />Jerry Daub: <br />That has not been fully flushed out yet with regards to where the water is going to come <br />from, but we're leaning toward the alluvium as probably the primary source. And we'll have <br />the data from the source of those waters. It's going to be supplying us with water for the <br />production of the solution mining operation. We'll be having the data from that from those <br />alluvial wells. We'll use that as an indicator also. <br />Paul Daggett: <br />Are you going to do a pump -down test on those alluvial wells, or something along those <br />lines. <br />Jerry Daub: <br />Depends on how thick the alluvium is and what the saturated thickness is. In the Piceance <br />basin, the alluvium along Piceance Creek is up to 140 ft. I'm not sure what it is right there at <br />the confluence of Stake Springs Draw and Corral Gulch, but I would suspect that it's fairly <br />deep. We're in the process of planning to drill some holes in that area. <br />Paul Daggett: <br />But you don't know how close that'll be to your alluvial monitoring well? <br />Jerry Daub: <br />It's anticipated right now that it will upstream from that quite a ways. <br />Jerry Daub: <br />We'll be far enough away. That alluvial monitoring well is going to be down below the <br />drainage where the Dunn 20 -1 well drainage intersects Yellow Creek. <br />
