hi, i am sorry i made a mistake. i gave you the the wrong lattitude in my original question on the the south east corner. i gave the lattitude for what i have on my paperwork for the N.e Corner by mistake.

one more thing, is that the coordinates i would enter into gps, looks like gps has 3different formats thanks, randy

Where are these claims located? I don't know if you have claims in Mongolia or in the US because you didn't Specify N/S or E/W in your Lat/Long. I don't want to send you to the wrong country.

south dakota

South Plot
SE 44° 4'3.15"N 103°42'10.42"W
SW 44° 4'3.15"N 103°42'31.85"W
NE 44° 4'9.67"N 103°42'10.42"W
NW 44° 4'9.67"N 103°42'31.85"W
North Plot
NE 44° 4'16.19"N 103°42'10.42"W
NW 44° 4'16.19"N 103°42'31.85"W
SE and SW are equal to NE and NW of South Plot

I hope this finally does it for you because I have a lot of time invested in this answer. There are a series of roads that go through this claim. Make sure to only mine up to the minimum distance to each one. I don't know how it goes in South Dakota but a good rule of thumb is that you must maintain 45 degrees of earth. Therefore, if you dig 50 feet down you must be 50 feet from the nearest road.
