1945 Map of Inspiration

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Castle Dome Mine and the sprawling Inspiration mining works dominate this landscape, reflecting the intensive industrial extraction of the mid-1940s. The map captures a complex network of resource infrastructure, from the Castle Dome Concentrator and its Cottonwood Tailings Pond to the Inspiration Main Shafts and the Leaching Plant. Transportation is anchored by the Southern Pacific railroad and U.S. 60-70, which connect the industrial core at Miami to the surrounding copper deposits.
