About this map

Death Valley dominates this 1954 landscape, flanked by the towering Panamint Range and Amargosa Range. This survey documents a critical era of transition in the California and Nevada desert, where early 20th-century mining history meets the modern atomic age. Remnants of the region's extraction boom are visible in settlements like Rhyolite and Ballarat, along with active sites such as the Talc City Mine and Lila C Mine.
