Comments on the location information

  • UPPER GREEN RIVER, SALT RIVER RANGE
  • Coordinates were at 42.375, -110.514, an erroneous location in T28N, R115W, sec. 32. The correct location is in T29N, R115W, Sec. 32, probably in the NE corner to be in the Permian Phosphoria Fm., approx. 10,000 meters to the NW of the location in T28N. Comment on Relative Position was "2 MILES SE. OF MT. THOMPSON". Now that the location is about 6 mi to the NW, this is probably no longer true.
