Georeferencing Method: Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012 (Unable to find the precise offset location since direction not specified; georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of the AMZA (Amazônia Mineração S. A.) mining headquarters of Serra Norte Carajás in Parauapebas, Pará, ensuring that the uncertainty radius encompassed the 14 km. offset. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located the approximate location of the headquarters of Serra Norte Carajás, assumed to be at area N-4. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of the mining headquarters (using visual evidence). Used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to find the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the mining area. Input coordinates, linear extent (6431.01 m.), measurement error (.01 m.), offset distance (13000 m.), and distance precision (100 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to Georefernecing Quick Reference Guide, Offset: Offset only, no direction).)
