Comments on the location information

  • LATITUDE-LONGITUDE VALUES CALCULATED FROM TOWNSHIP, RANGE, SECTION.
  • Unable to confirm anything about this deposit, supposedly in Sec. 33 (according to the original MRDS record). Coordinates place this in Sec. 31. Sec. 33 is more than 3500 meters east of this point. Probably belongs at Rocky Point. Wyoming Map Series 14, places a U deposit where the Phosphate is, but classifies the deposit as Marine Phosphate in Phosphoria Formation. Therefore, ABW moved the point to the same location as the Rocky Point Phosphate deposit (#10181986).
