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

Comments
Comment (Identification): Possible that the name or descriptor on this should be East Gas Hills. The 1,000 tpd in 1975 is the same as assigned to the Union Carbide Corp. Mill (Map letter C, in MINOBRAS, 1976, p. 33). The Union Carbide Mill is East Gas Hills.
