1945 Map of Inspiration

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Industrial copper extraction dominates the landscape near Miami, where massive mining operations like the Castle Dome Mine and the Castle Dome Concentrator have reshaped the terrain. This 1945 survey, updated with 1982 photorevisions, shows the extensive footprint of the Inspiration site and its Inspiration Main Shaft. The presence of several shafts and tunnels, including the Bonanza Tunnel and Money Metal Shaft, underscores a century of heavy mineral production in this corner of the Tonto National Forest.
