Sources of Data
Source Map | Map Date | Original Scale | Digitized Scale | Map Type |
Microfilm, document 351054 | 9-19-1933 | 1:1200 | 1:1200 | Secondary source Map of Pioneer Mine (mine index 3535) designates "Abandoned Mine, (water) Danger" to the east. This is assumed to be the Brandenberger mine, because ISGS databases indicated Brandenberger was located in section 29 of T1N, R8W. A general area of mining was drawn to indicate the location and some of the extent of the Brandenberger Mine. |
