| Deposit | THERE IS A DISCREPANCY IN LOCATIONS BETWEEN THE REFERENCES LISTED. NBMG BULLETIN 49, P. 95 SAYS THAT "...A SMALL VERTICAL LIME KILN WAS ERECTED ALONGSIDE THE RAILROAD AT WABUSKA AND A SMALL TONNAGE OF LIMESTONE WAS BURNED, COMING FROM CHURCHILL CANYON TO THE NORTH." THE LOCATION OF THIS RECORD IS PLACED IN CHURCHILL CANYON, BUT THE SITE IS NOT SPECIFICALLY IDENTIFIED ON THE MAP. THEREFORE, A LOW PRECISION IS ASSIGNED. |
