5) The mill buildings were maintained in preparation of reconditioning and restarting the <br />mill. The mill equipment continues to be operated as part of maintenance testing, but no <br />material was processed by the equipment. <br />6) Sediment control measures were performed on an as needed basis(temporary silt fence <br />construction around the ore stockpiles). Additionally, culverts were cleaned, berms <br />maintained and roads maintained as required. <br />7) Ore stockpiles remain covered with visqueen material as a temporary measure to <br />minimize acid generating potential of sulfitic ores. This visqueen material remains in <br />place as long as the material remains in place. Thevisqueen cover was replaced in June <br />2011 on all three piles. The temporary "historic tailings" stockpile was also covered with <br />visqueen to minimize acid generating potential of sulfitic ores. As per the Technical <br />Revision, this temporary stockpile material will be placed in the tailings facility once <br />construction activities are completed. <br />8) Weed control measures were performed as required. <br />9) Calais Resources requested Union Milling Company to reactivate the mill and in <br />accordance with that request, the following items occurred in the past 12 months. <br />a.
