About this map

Blue Diamond sits at the base of Blue Diamond Hill, serving as a focal point for gypsum mining and rural life in the early 1950s. The landscape is defined by the extraction of natural resources, prominently marked by the Blue Diamond Mine and various quarries and a Sandstone Quarry to the north. Water sources are critical in this arid terrain, with numerous named points such as Mormon Green Springs, Wheeler Camp Spring, and Cottonwood Spring supporting local operations.
