Notes

  1. Production after map date
  2. The map showed east-west trending entries about ½ mile north of the workings that can be related to features on the land surface, but the map showed no land surface features, and the location is known only from the map legend. The shaft is shown in the center of NE 35-T8N-R4E, but an accurate location is not known.
