Was it in the Metadata of the photo? Only that is uploaded. 

 

Does it appear again if downloaded back to phone?

Yes it was in the Metadata on the Phone before opload. I've tested a picture.
Uploaded from Phone to dropbox.
Deleted the original photo on the mobile.
Downloaded the picture from dropbox back to the Phone.
The location is back in the Metadata 🙂 on the Phone.
So now I just Wonder why it doesn't appear in dropbox?
