Appropriation under the general mining laws prior to the date and time

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.
At 8:30 a.m., on July 20, 1999, the lands will be opened to
applications and offers under the mineral leasing laws.
