The Pmrgx-11 is a antimony mine located in Alaska.
About the MRDS Data:
All mine locations were obtained from the USGS Mineral Resources Data System. The locations and other information in this database have not been verified for accuracy. It should be assumed that all mines are on private property.
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 (Reference): Primary Reference = Wilson and others, 1988
Comment (Exploration): Status = Inactive
Comment (Deposit): Other Comments = the site is in the Alaska Peninsula National Wildlife Refuge.
Comment (Geology): Geologic Description = The country rocks at this site consist of Tertiary andesitc flows and volcanic breccias, and sandstone and shale. The sedimentary rocks may belong to the Paleocene to Eocene Tolstoi Formation. The volcanic rocks are part of an undivided Tertiary sequence (Wilson and others, 1995). Rock samples collected by the U.S. Geological Survey in the mid-1980's were reported to be anomalous in antimony (Wilson and others, 1988).
Comment (Workings): Workings / Exploration = Rock samples 84AJm739-743 and 84AWr74-77 collected by the U.S. Geological Survey in the mid-1980s were reported to be anomalous in antimony (Wilson and others, 1988).
