EXHIBIT D <br />RECLAMATION PLAN The reclamation plan is the return the site to its natural <br />condition as rangeland or agricultural use. Upon completion of mining the slopes will be <br />shaped to a maximum slope of 4:1 , topsoil will be replaced to an equivalent depth as <br />found prior to mining. The reclaimed land will be disced corrugated to minimize erosion <br />and planted to correspond to the owners wishes using a drill, either wheat production or <br />a grass mixture recommended by the Conservation Service. No building or <br />improvements will remain after mining. <br />The estimated cost of reclamation is as follows. <br />placement and preparation of topsoil $400.00 /acre <br />seeding of the site $200.00 /acre <br />grading and slopes $ 40.00 /acre <br />TOTAL $640.00 /acre x 10 acres $6,400 <br />As mining progresses the grade will be established as the mine floor and sloping will be <br />done as mining moves north. The only reclamation necessary at completion will be <br />placement of topsoil and seeding. <br />
