Not shown · Register identifiersNo register identifier is held for this entry.

Not shown · LocationThe hub holds a coordinate for this site, but the entry marks its grain as an administrative or locality reference (“town, named (planetGOLD context: engagement-with-miners photo caption + news story)”), not the mine’s own point. Plotting it as a pin would overstate what is actually known, so it is not shown.
