November 20, 1997

Mr. Steve Laspina
Equis Financial Group
88 Broad Street
Boston, MA 02110

Dear Steve:

To follow up our discussions concerning the Euclid R-190 truck leases,
Schedule(s) A-15 and A-16, Triton has elected to extend the current lease
agreement for another 24 months per the terms set forth in your letter of July
24, 1997. These terms were also set forth in the October 1, 1997 letter,
however, we would rather not consider stating a Purchase Price at this time.
Simply, a 24 month extension at $9,000.00 per month will most closely fit with
our mine planning at this time. As I interpret this proposal, the same language
regarding options at termination will hold as set forth in the original lease
agreement.

Please forward the proper documentation required to initiate this 24 month
extension so that I can prepare the paperwork necessary for management approval
signatures at my location.

If there is anything more that I need to do, or if you have any questions
regarding this matter, please call.


Sincerely,

/s/ Bill Seay

Bill Seay
Materials Manager

November 20, 1997

Mr. Steve Laspina
Equis Financial Group
88 Broad Street
Boston, MA 02110

Dear Steve:

To follow up our discussions concerning the Euclid R-190 truck leases,
Schedule(s) A-15 and A-16, Triton has elected to extend the current lease
agreement for another 24 months per the terms set forth in your letter of July
24, 1997. These terms were also set forth in the October 1, 1997 letter,
however, we would rather not consider stating a Purchase Price at this time.
Simply, a 24 month extension at $9,000.00 per month will most closely fit with
our mine planning at this time. As I interpret this proposal, the same language
regarding options at termination will hold as set forth in the original lease
agreement.

Please forward the proper documentation required to initiate this 24 month
extension so that I can prepare the paperwork necessary for management approval
signatures at my location.

If there is anything more that I need to do, or if you have any questions
regarding this matter, please call.


Sincerely,

/s/ Bill Seay

Bill Seay
Materials Manager
