MRDS database stated accuracy for this location is 10 meters. The MRDS database file presents a series of alternate names for this locality, all but one of which are also provided as alternate names for the nearby Iron Capping Mine; moreover, the Elder Berry claims is also provided as an alternate name but has a separate MRDS file, and is not mentioned in the Iron Capping Mine file.
