Wow! Nice! But I would guess Class E in both cases.
And I know I am not out of school here because I have
just traced the entire previous try at BoundaryPoint
too (where this tripoint was also called GVIVLI and
later CIGNLR), beginning with:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/BoundaryPoint/message/6040
. . . and continuing especially and often hilariously
through the sequence:
6041, 6043, 6044, 1061, 6068, 6083, 6086, 6107, 6127,
6134, 9312, 9319, 9321 and 9330. So take the whole
ride if you can, but don't miss:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/BoundaryPoint/message/9312
. . . which finally locates and identifies the
tripoint marker as a simple concrete post 3 feet high
(with apparent authority, Brownlie to the contrary
notwithstanding). But in any case, I have also found
that the GNLR and CILR IBS Studies indicate the FRLR
border was indeed demarcated right through this
tripoint area during the years 1926-1929 (including,
evidently, on Mt. Nuon at the source of the Nuon
River, which a subsequent French Colonial decree made
the point of departure for the administrative
separation of Cote D'Ivoire from Guinea). Indeed the
plaque in your first link could even have been left by
commissioners of that original FRLR survey! --Jimi
