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 (Identification): Keith Long's list of significant deposits doesn't define "Marysvale". Does taht mean just the Marysvale Peak deposit, the cluster of deposits near Marysvale Peak (here clustered together as the Sevier Plateau area), or all the 23 alunite replacement and 7 alunite vein deposits in the Marysvale REGION?
