The source map listed the location in Range 1 East, but the surveyor did not specify the county. Range 1 East is in Williamson County, and this map was previously used to mistakenly place a mine in the Crab Orchard Lake Quadrangle. This location (23-T9S-R1E) is beyond the crop of all the commonly mined seams, and even the more-rarely mined seams are not of a minable thickness.
