Pecos Street <br />Westminster, CO 80234 <br />Permit No. C- 2010 -089 <br />Acres Disturbed <br />The New Horizon North (NHN) Mine currently includes two Coal Mine Permits held by <br />Western Fuels Colorado (WFC); New Horizon 1 Permit #C- 1981 -008 and NHN Permit <br />#C- 2010 -089. WFC is currently working with the Division of Reclamation, Mining, and <br />Safety (DRMS) to remove Permit C- 1981 -008 from this area. At this time, all NH1 <br />activities are covered under this Annual Reclamation Report; Permit C- 2010 -089, <br />Western Fuels Colorado, LLC, New Horizon North Mine. <br />The New Horizon North (NHN) Mine is bounded by 2600 Rd on the West, 2650 Rd on <br />the East, Z Rd on the North, and AA Rd on the South. This land is located in Sections 25 <br />and 36, Township 47 North, Range 16 West of the New Mexico Principal Meridian, <br />Montrose County, Colorado. Refer to Attachment 2.03.8 -1 of Mining Permit C- 2012 -089 <br />for a more detailed description. Currently the NHN Mine office is located at 27646 W. 5th <br />Ave. Nucla, CO 81424, which is also the NH2 Mine office. New office facilities are <br />permitted to be built on the NHN Permit area in an early phase of work. Map 2012 -1 <br />shows the location of the permitted area in relation to the NH2 mine. <br />Activities on the NHN Permit area in 2012 were confined to construction of the NHN <br />Pond 001 and its associated control ditches; as well as stripping and storage of <br />approximately 112,000 cubic yards of mixed topsoil and 45,000 cubic yards of Progresso <br />topsoil. The Progresso topsoil was placed in a separate stockpile so that it can be placed <br />back in its original general area and not blended with the mixed topsoil. The Progresso <br />soil generally has better characteristics which include a thicker soil depth. Details of soil <br />types on the NHN Permit area including where they are found, is in section 2.04.9 of the <br />Permit. <br />At years end, most of this work has been completed with a total of 76.4 acres of land <br />disturbed. Map 2012 -2 describes the disturbances within the Permit. <br />Backfilling and Grading <br />Work consisted exclusively of pre production activities. Due to this fact, there was no <br />land backfilled or graded during 2012 on the NHN Permit. <br />F: \Trevor\Annual Reclamation Reports \NHN 2012 Annual Reclamation report daves <br />revl.doc - 1 — <br />
