Report: The Daisy Mae No. 6 is a strip mine at the head of an unnamed drainage. The cut is approximately 150 feet long and 40 feet wide. Red clinkers on the mine bench suggest the lignite was burned in place. Minobras (1977) describes how many of the uraniferous lignites were burned in place, then uranium-bearing ash was shipped to Edgemont, South Dakota or to out of state mills. There are smaller bulldozer cuts along the same contact on the opposite side of the drainage. There are no structures or water at the site.
