Mine Info
Satelite View
MRDS mine locations are often very general, and in some cases are incorrect. Some mine remains have been covered or removed by modern industrial activity or by development of things like housing. The satellite view offers a quick glimpse as to whether the MRDS location corresponds to visible mine remains.

Comments
Comment (Reserve-Resource): MAGNETIC CONCENTRATE = 62-64% FE, 2.1-4.2% TIO2, 0.3-0.4% V (0.55-0.7 V2O5). UN, 1970 GIVES A FIGURE OF 3,000,000,000 TONS, 15-20% FE. 3-13 MILLION SHORT TONS V RESOURCES
Comment (Other Database): RECORD NUMBER ISM0740 IS A POTENTIAL DUPLICATE OF THIS RECORD
Comment (Geology): GEOL.DESC: ILMENITE-BEARING MAGNETITE, MOSTLY DISSEMINATED BUT SOME CONCENTRATED IN LENSES, IN PYROXENITE, EXPOSED OVER 4 SQUARE-MILE AREA (WELLS AND THORNE, 1953)
