You are correct in that 'eject' works. The issue is with 'Safely
Remove". .

However the help files are ambiguous regarding this:

Safely remove an external drive
When you use external storage devices like USB flash drives, you should safely remove them before unplugging them. If you just unplug a device, you run the risk of unplugging while an application is still using it. This could result in some of your files being lost or damaged. When you use an optical disc like a CD or DVD, you can use the same steps to eject the disc from your computer.
To eject a removable device:
>From the Activities overview, open Files.
Locate the device in the sidebar. It should have a small eject icon next to the name. Click the eject icon to safely remove or eject the device.
Alternately, you can right-click the name of the device in the sidebar and select Eject.
Safely remove a device that is in use
If any of the files on the device are open and in use by an application, you will not be able to safely remove the device. You will be prompted with a window telling you that "the volume is busy," and listing all the open files on the device. Once you close all the files on the device, the device will automatically be safe to remove. At that time you can unplug or eject it.
If you can't close one of the files, for example if the application using the file is locked up, you can right-click the file in the Volume is busy window and select End Process. This will force the entire locked up application to close, which could close other files you have open with that application.
You can also choose Unmount Anyway to remove the device without closing the files. This may cause errors in applications that have those files open.

Title:
  SD Card mounts first time but will not remount

Status in “udisks” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: udisks

  This is using an internal card reader on a Pavilion DV7.  When
  inserting an SD Card the first time, it mounts correctly.  However,
  after unmounting and reinserting the system can not recognize it.
  Rebooting solves the problem.  There is no message in dmesg when
  reconnecting.
