Comments on the location information

  • This record appears to be a duplicate of record 1068211 (Stevenson Bowers Hill Copper Mine). The discrepancy in locations between the two records appears to be a mistyped number in the longitude of this record. Based on a Google Earth and USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) check, the location for record 1068211 appears to be correct and thus is used for this record as well.
