Mine Info
Satelite View

The satellite view offers a quick glimpse as to whether the MRDS location corresponds to visible mine remains.

Comments
Comment (Deposit): VERY POOR, ALMOST IMPASSABLE ROADS SOUTH OF WIN WAN FLAT. THE ROAD STOPS WELL SHORT OF THE WORKINGS AND THE CANYON LEADING TO THEM IS STREWN WITH SKARN MATERIAL AS IT FOLLOWS THE MARGIN OF THE CONTACT.
Comment (Workings): SHALLOW ADITS, PROSPECTS AND TRENCHES.
