Mechanized operations will again consist of two sessions, approximately the first week in May <br />and the last week of September. Hand digging and screening of mined material using a <br />mechanized shaker will occur throughout the summer. <br />The current excavation at Site B/C will be extended north and to the east to continue excavation <br />of the site where topsoil was removed by the previous claimant at Site B. This area totals <br />approximately 0.6 acres and will eventually be mined and reclaimed. It is included as presently <br />disturbed area. The excavation will also be extended to the west boundary of the permit site. If <br />this is completed, backfill will begin on the northwest area of the claim and proceed east. <br />Anticipated 2012 Disturbances: <br />Approximately 0.25 acre of new area will be disturbed during the 2011 season. <br />Proposed 2012 Reclamation: <br />The northwest corner of Site B, up to 4,000 square feet may be ready for reclamation. If so, it <br />will be recontoured and reseeded. <br />Sufficiency of Bond: <br />A reclamation bond of $ 8,477 is held by the State of Colorado. This bond is set aside to cover <br />annual reclamation efforts for this mining permit. <br />Respe ly submitted, <br />zai, <br />J SEPH L.
