About this map

Mining operations and transport corridors define this cross-border region as documented by the U.S. Geological Survey in the mid-1980s. The Spring Mountains are particularly dense with history, housing a concentration of mineral claims such as the Potosi Mine, Yellow Pine Mine, and the Shenandoah Mine. These sites reflect the extractive economy that fueled settlements like Goodsprings and Sandy. The landscape is a study in desert mobility, showing the path of the Old Spanish Trail alongside the modern Union Pacific railroad and the Von Schmidt Boundary.
