    The aim is to prove a localized version of Bourgin and Edgar's theorem on unique representing measures in noncompact simplexes. Let C be a closed bounded convex set in a Banach space with the Radon-Nikodym property. The main result is that a point x in C is the barycentre of a unique maximal tight probability measure if and only if the face generated by x is a simplex.
