Georeferencing Method
Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Unable to find the precise location of "Santa Patricia;" instead georeferenced to the geographic center of the MRN Mineração Rio do Norte (mining area) in Porto Trombetas. Referred to MRN: Mineração Rio do Norte: Porto Trombetas website for location information for the mining area (http://www.mrn.com.br/en-US/Sobre-MRN/Porto-Trombetas/Pages/default.aspx). Using the reference material as well as Google Maps - Satellite View, located the mining area Mineração Rio do Norte in Porto Trombetas, Oriximiná (using visual evidence). Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of the mine. 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. Used linear extent as the uncertainty radius.
