Y. Terada, T. Murakami, and K. Makishima on behalf of the Suzaku WAM
team, report:

The  long-duration, very bright GRB 120602A was observed by INTEGRAL 
(SPI-ACS), Swift (BAT), Konus-Wind, Suzaku (WAM), MESSENGER (GRNS), and 
Mars Odyssey (HEND) on June 2 at about 18001 s UT (05:00:01). The burst 
was outside of the coded field of view of the BAT.

We have triangulated it to a 3 sigma error box whose
coordinates are:
---------------------------------------------
   RA(2000), deg                 Dec(2000), deg
  ---------------------------------------------
  Center:
    87.922 (05h 51m 41s) -39.354 (-39d 21' 16")
  Corners:
    87.761 (05h 51m 03s) -39.306 (-39d 18' 22")
    87.798 (05h 51m 12s) -39.441 (-39d 26' 28")
    88.084 (05h 52m 20s) -39.402 (-39d 24' 08")
    88.046 (05h 52m 11s) -39.267 (-39d 16' 02")
  ---------------------------------------------
The error box area is 111 sq. arcmin, and its maximum
dimension is 16 arcmin.

This box may be further improved.

The time history and spectrum will be given in a forthcoming GCN Circular.
