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 (Deposit): Other Comments = An unknown number of lode claims were staked, apparently for unspecified radioactive minerals, in 1956 (U.S. Bureau of Mines, 1979).
Comment (Reference): Primary Reference = Elliott and Koch, 1981
Comment (Geology): Geologic Description = The country rocks in the general area of this unverified mineral occurrence are migmatite, orthogneiss, and subordinate paragneiss of Mesozoic or Paleozoic age (Koch, 1996, 1997). No other geological information about this occurrence was publicly available in 1997 (Koch, 1997).
Comment (Exploration): Status = Inactive
