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

Comments
Comment (Deposit): SAMPLE TOQ-2507
Comment (Location): Lat/long DD disagrees with DMS. The bibliographic reference indicates Toiyabe National Forest, which is vague because the Toiyabe spreads all across Nevada. It also mentions the Toquima Range (central Nevada). The DMS coordinates agree with Toquima Range as well as the sample number TOQ-2507. Also, the district name Northumberland is in Nye county NV. However, the DD (46.0525, -112.81) put it in Deer Lodge county Montana, which agrees with the political location and the PLSS location in the record. Another "hybrid" record 10123607 has been found, both have lat/long in Deer Lodge county MT. The Toquima Range and DMS coordinates win and the original DD coords were discarded.
