Industrial potash mining and the desolate beauty of the Chihuahuan Desert define this corner of Eddy County. The Duval Corporation Wills-Weaver facility and the Amax Potash Refinery stand as significant landmarks of the region's mineral extraction economy, alongside Amax Chemical. These industrial sites are surrounded by the expansive Querecho Plains and the prominent elevations of Nimenim Ridge and the Loco Hills.
