1979 Map of Cerro Colorado

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Mining operations and remote desert outposts dominate this Pima County landscape, reflecting a region defined by mineral exploration in the late 1970s. The Cerro Colorado Mountains and Las Guijas Mountains harbor a dense concentration of historical claims, including the Liberty Mine, Silver Hill Mine, and the Black Princess Mine. The presence of New Colorado Mine and several prospects suggests a persistent interest in the precious metals of the Arizona desert long after the initial booms of the previous century.
