About this map

Granite Mountain and the East Range dominate this high-desert landscape in Pershing County, where complex geological formations drove a legacy of hard-rock exploration. The map reveals an intricate network of drainages including Mc Clure Canyon, Gold Note Canyon, and Lamberson Canyon, all converging in a region defined by its mineral potential. Prospectors and geologists can trace various extractive workings such as the Open Pit Mine and numerous Mine Tunnels Shaft Prospect sites located across the slopes. The topography is further punctuated by Cinnabar Ridge and Granite Peak, while scattered water sources like Root Spring Canyon provide vital landmarks in an otherwise arid environment. This provisional survey captures the intersection of industrial pursuit and natural relief, documenting the specific locations of mine shafts and tunnels that shaped local history.
