Box 629 <br />Gunnison, CO 81230 <br />RE. Lucky Jack Project, Receipt of Notice of Intent, File No. P-2008-052 <br />Dear Mr. Craft: <br />Bill Ritter, Jr. <br />Governor <br />Harris D. Sherman <br />Executive Director <br />Ronald W. Cattany <br />Division Director <br />Natural Resource Trustee <br />The Colorado Division of Reclamation, Mining, and Safety (DRMS) has received your Notice of Intent to Conduct <br />Prospecting. Our initial review indicates that it is complete. Financial Warranty must be provided in the amount of <br />$1500.00 per the reclamation cost estimate enclosed with this letter. Prospecting bond forms are available online at <br />hLtp://mining.state.co.us/ProspectingForms.htm. You may not commence prospecting operations until the bond has <br />been submitted and you have been notified in writing that the bond has been accepted by the DRMS. <br />DRMS recognizes that this prospecting notice for installation of a weather station anticipates collection of information <br />to support applications for permits if and when the Lucky Jack Project moves past the prospecting phase. The weather <br />exhibit for an application for a Colorado Reclamation Permit for a Designated Mining Operation is critical to DRMS <br />review of such an application. In addition to temperature, wind, and precipitation data, evaporation information is <br />necessary to evaluate water balance for mining and milling operations. If you have any questions about the types of <br />data needed to support a permit application, please contact me at 303-866-4063. <br />Sincerely--n <br />Allen C.
