Applicant Information
The prospective applicant is: Calico Resources USA Corp., Nancy J. Wolverson, Permitting Coordinator, 665 Anderson Street, Winnemucca, NV 89445.
The proposed Grassy Mountain Gold Project is located in Malheur County, Oregon located approximately 25 miles south-southwest of Vale, Oregon. Calico is considering constructing an underground mine and surface mill complex to develop the Grassy Mountain gold resource. The Mine and Process Area is located on three (3) patented lode mining claims and unpatented lode and mill site claims, all on public land managed by the US Bureau of Land Management.
The access road is situated on public land managed by the BLM and private land controlled by others. A majority of the access road is a Malheur County Road named Twin Springs Road. The access road extends north from the Mine and Process Area to Russell Road, a paved Malheur County Road. The width of the Access Road Area is 300 feet, including 150 feet on either side of the access road centerline. This width is used to accommodate several (9) proposed road realignments along Twin Springs Road and a powerline adjacent to the access road.
The company has filed its Third Amended Notice of Intent under OAR 632-037-0035. Under Oregon regulations, DOGAMI will provide public notice, activate a Project Coordinating Committee, activate a Technical Review Team, and inform the applicants of the names and contact persons for all permitting and cooperating agencies.
