1902 Map of Globe

About this map

The rugged copper-bearing mountains of central Arizona dominate this survey, centered on the emerging industrial hub of Globe. Conducted at the start of the 20th century, the map documents a landscape defined by intensive mining operations and dispersed cattle ranching. The concentration of workings northeast of the town site—including the Old Dominion Mine, Copper Hill Mine, and Grey Mine—marks the early prosperity of the Globe mining district. Further west, the expanse of Miami Flat and the Black Warrior mine point toward the future development of the Miami area.
