this order under the general mining laws prior to the date and time of
restoration is unauthorized. Any such attempted appropriation,
including attempted adverse possession under 30 U.S.C. 38 (1988), shall
vest no rights against the United States. Acts required to establish a
location and to initiate a right of possession are governed by State
law where not in conflict with Federal law. The Bureau of Land
Management will not intervene in disputes between rival locators over
possessory rights since Congress has provided for such determinations
in local courts.
