Notes

  1. The field notes indicated that an air shaft was located 600 feet due east of the hoist shaft. Because of the imprecise nature of the shaft location, the air shaft is not shown on the accompanying map. However, a general area of mining has been added to the accompanying map to indicate the uncertainty in the extent of the workings of this and mine index 4649.
