<div id="ygrps-yiv-71740690">this one is problematic too<br/>
<br/>
there are some clues that pillar 41 of the 1956 franco spanish boundary<br/>
commission may serve as the definitive tripoint marker<br/>
<br/>
but no such explicit identification is made by brownlie<br/>
<br/>
the conventional tripoint location<br/>
based on colonial administrative definition<br/>
is<br/>
n lat 27d 40m<br/>
w long 8d 40m<br/>
<br/>
but of the 3 boundaries convergent there only the one separating algeria &<br/>
western sahara has been demarcated<br/>
& this is believed to terminate at pillar 41<br/>
which may therefore occupy the above geoposition<br/>
<br/>
to add to the uncertainty<br/>
if the moroccan claim to western sahara is sustained<br/>
this tripoint will disappear entirely<br/>
