About this map

The Cerro Colorado Mountains and the Las Guijas Mountains dominate this high-desert Arizona landscape, revealing a territory defined by hard-rock mining and cattle ranching. Numerous mining operations dot the terrain, from the Liberty Mine and New Colorado Mine near the center of the quadrangle to the Arivaca King Mine in the southwest. These workings, alongside various prospect points like the Black Princess Mine, indicate a significant history of mineral exploration in Pima County.
