About this map

Mining operations and ranching life define this mid-century survey of the rugged Nevada landscape straddling the Lander Co Eureka Co border. Significant focus is placed on the extraction hubs of the Shoshone and Cortez ranges, where the large-scale Gold Acres Mine and associated Gold Acres settlement stand in contrast to dozens of smaller prospects and inactive workings like the Tomcat Mine. These labels suggest a region in transition, moving from the smaller silver and gold strikes of the previous century to more industrialized operations.
