M-88-112 <br />SUBMITTAL OF PHASE II, RAISE 2 EMBANKMENT DESIGN REPORT <br />Dear Jim: <br />Battle Mountain Resources, Inc. (BMRI) completed the first raise to the tailings <br />embankment in 1993. In accordance with permit M-88-112 BMRI is required to <br />construct a second 15 foot lift when the tailings reach the 8,600 foot @levation. <br />We are approaching this elevation and need to complete the second raise <br />during the 1995 construction season. <br />The approved permit contained the construction information for the raises. <br />However, the permit indicated that BMRI would confirm the physical properties <br />and suitability of the tailings for embankment construction prior to Phase 2 <br />construction (page D-35 of the 1989 Permit Amendment). BMRI has completed <br />the confirmation of this information and is hereby transmitting this information to <br />the Division in the enclosed San Luis Phase II, Raise 2 Design Report prepared <br />by SRK. <br />We plan on beginning construction of the Raise 2 no later than August 7, 1995 <br />in order to complete the construction before tailings disposal infringes on the <br />design containment. There are no revisions required to the existing approved <br />information relative to the raise construction. This information is being submitted <br />simply to inform the Division of our evaluation of the tailings disposal and <br />suitability for the proposed construction methodology. We request that the <br />A SUBSIDIAN)'OF BATTLE dfOUNTAIN GOLD COMPANY <br />P.O. BOX 31U SAN LUIS, COLORADO ri1152-0310 pl9)672 336?
