A question about real-life mines

[pickinthebanjo]

I would imagine that whenever the British navy would lay mines they would note it down that area has mines, and when they cleaned them up it for the most part would be as simple to find as looking at a map.

Just a thought though

If only countries would take the time to do so. That is one of the sticky points about the various mine conventions/treaties - getting the people to put them there to pick them up again.
