Georeferencing Method: Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012 (Unable to find the precise location; instead, georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of the mining area, Serra Norte Carajás, ensuring that the uncertainty radius reflects the 35 km. offset. Referred to AME Mineral Economics website for information on Serra Norte Carajás (http://www.ame.com.au/Website/Content/GuestInformation/SiteDetail.html?Commodity=Iron%20Ore&SiteType=Mines&SiteName=U2VycmErTm9ydGUrKENhcmFqJWMzJWExcystK04rU3lzdGVtKQ==). Also referred to map in Figure 1: Flona Carajás e N1: as cores magentas que circundam a flona correspondem às áreas desmatadas," from "Informações geoambientais derivadas de imagens de radar (R99B/SIPAM) e ópticas (LANDSAT/TM5) em jazimento de minério de ferro em Carajás" for location information of Serra Norte Carajás (MORAIS, Maria Carolina de; PEREIRA JUNIOR, Paulo Martins and PARADELLA, Waldir Renato. Informações geoambientais derivadas de imagens de radar (R99B/SIPAM) e ópticas (LANDSAT/TM5) em jazimento de minério de ferro em Carajás. Rem: Rev. Esc. Minas [online]. 2009, vol.62, n.2 [cited 2014-01-02], pp. 131-137 . Available from: . ISSN 0370-4467. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S0370-44672009000200003.). Using Google Maps - Satellite and Terrain View, located the mining area of Serra Norte Carajás in Parauapebas, Pará. Used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to measure the approximate total extent of the mining area of Serra Norte Carajás, then halved this distance to approximate the location of the geographic center of the mining area. Measured to approximately the calculated distance from one extreme of the area toward the center; used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates of the geographic center. Input coordinates, linear extent (distance from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the mining area, 26383.3 m.), measurement error (.1 m.), offset distance (35000 m.), and distance precision (100 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Offset: Offset only, no direction).)
