1962 Map of Kofa Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Kofa Mountains geology and mining history dominate this mid-century survey of the Arizona desert. The map captures a landscape defined by industrial extraction, featuring a cluster of significant claims such as the North Star Mine, King of Arizona Mine, and the Black Dahlia Mine. These sites are concentrated near the southern reaches of the range, supported by a network of ephemeral water sources like Kofa Dam Wash and Yaqui Wash. Evidence of earlier human presence is noted at the Petroglyphs site near Alamo Spring, while the presence of a Cemetery near the primary mining group suggests the permanence of these remote operations during their peak years.
