Comments on the location information

  • The Red Rim Claim Map, Figure 5, was provided by EMC and represents the approximate location of unpatented mining lode claims held by EMC. The mining claims are unpatented mining lode claims, comprise some 1,000 acres and are located on federal lands. The claims located and controlled by EMC are referred to as SC claims 1 through 35. The claims were located by EMC and are not known to have any encumbrances or royalties. EMC also acquired an additional 18 claims, referred to as the F Claims F336 through F353. These mining lode claims will remain the property of EMC provided they adhere to required filing and annual payment requirements with Carbon County and the US BLM. Legal surveys of unpatented claims are not required and to the author’s knowledge have not been completed. (43-101, p. 8 of 46)
  • In spite of the title of the 43-101 saying "Sweetwater County", this is absolutely NOT in Sweetwater County. It is Carbon County. The word Sweetwater appears in the title only. Clearly this is an error. All the maps, figures, text say Carbon County.
