This locality has not been verified on the ground and does not appear on any maps, but may refer to one of several villages west of Bendougou, namely Dieboukara or Dionkane. Both are in Commune (Arrondissemnent) Diakon, Cercle de Bafoulabe. Dionkane lies close to the Guedigi diggings, which were the original discovery site in the Kayes Region. The grossular specimen illustrated appears identical to ones that came from the Koukouri diggings near Trantimou, Commune (Arrondissement) Diakon, Cercle de Bafoulabe.
