Please provide the <br />following before August 6, 2012: <br />1.

The financial warranty may or may not exceed $2,000 per acre of affected land <br />depending on the Division cost estimate. Please be reminded that prospecting operations may not commence until <br />the adequacy issues are addressed and the bond is submitted and approved by the Division. <br />Please be advised the Sunrise Lode Prospecting Application may be deemed inadequate and the application may be <br />denied on August 6, 2012 unless the abovementioned adequacy review items are addressed to the satisfaction of the <br />Division.
