Uranium Map

Santa Fe New Mexican makes a whoops with this map that misidentifies Interstate 40 in their story Uranium Deposits Spark Interest. 

After drilling six exploratory holes on Mount Taylor in search of uranium earlier this year, a Canadian-based company, called Western Energy Development Corp., has submitted a plan to the U.S. Forest Service that seeks to drill 47 more holes.  Urex Energy Corp. of Reno, Nev., in October announced plans to drill 21 exploratory holes on 2,700 acres of La Jara Mesa at the base of Mount Taylor.
... Another company, Hydro Resources, is seeking a license from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission to reopen uranium mining near Crownpoint.

Maybe we'll get lucky and they'll get lost.

Perhaps this also explains why Coronado and his homies never found the fabled Seven Cities of Gold.
