1950 Map of Desert Mound

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

The extractive industrial landscape of Iron County, Utah, is prominently documented in this 1950 survey, which was updated with photo-revisions in the late 1970s. The geography is defined by significant iron mining operations, including the Open Pit Iron Mine and the Homestake Mine (Inactive), which sit near the prominent geological feature of Desert Mound. The Union Pacific railroad cuts across the arid terrain, providing the essential transport link for the region's mineral wealth.
