Source of Metauranocircite-1 according to Tom Loomis who says: "The mine was discovered by Count Davier and sparked a mini uranium rush to the northern Black Hills. It went nowhere. It was referenced in the older literature as Autunite. The mine still exist but is hidden good, down Lost Camp, up a hill, around a clump of pine trees, follow an old rail grade and you'll see it. Good luck." Tom Loomis in a Mindat thread, July 2018, says it is the Davier Mine not the Danvier Mine.
