Comments on the site identification

  • A.B. Wilson removed Tungsten King from this group of mines included in one record because it has it's own record (10190795) and because it should be in Sec. 6, not Sec. 5. This record (10017078) seems to be a combined record of all the small mines in Sec. 5.
