About this map

Mining operations and arid landforms characterize this section of the West Humboldt Range in Pershing County, documented in the late 1980s. The landscape is defined by extensive mineral exploration, with numerous adits, prospects, and mine shafts scattered across the slopes. Of particular historical note are the Nevada Quicksilver Mine and the Pershing Quicksilver Mine, which highlight the region's industrial focus on mercury extraction.
