<DIV><FONT size=4>I tried Google. I suspect it is NOT this:</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4>In which case we are told that the mine is "50km
south-east</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4>of Jeonju city". The latter is in North Cholla (I refuse to
write Jeolla);</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4>but 50 km southeast of there might take you into South
Kyongsang.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=4>This article is by the same man, now teaching at Chonbuk
National</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4>University (not Jeonbuk, I note) in Jeonju. So I dare say you
could</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4>contact him there and ask him.</FONT></DIV>

Collaegues,<BR><BR>Might anyone know the PROVINCE in which the Tongjin
(Dongjin) Mine is located? Now abandoned, it was once the site of mining
operations for gold, silver and copper. One person GUESSES that it might
be South Kyongsang Province. The mine is the subject of a dissertation
by Jeon Seo-Ryeong at Tsukuba University in Japan.<BR><BR>With many thanks in
