Stanton Mine occupies a prominent position in this mid-century survey of Garfield County, marking the industrial footprint of the Henry Mountains region. The landscape is characterized by its high plateaus and drainage systems, where Pennell Creek and Saleratus Creek carve through the sedimentary layers. Mapped using aerial photography taken between 1951 and 1952, this sheet shows a territory defined by distinctive geological formations such as Bedrock Mesa, L-Mac Mesa, and the prominent Ant Knoll. This preliminary edition documents the area before more extensive road networks were established, featuring only a handful of unimproved tracks and water sources like Jackass Spring, which were vital for any localized mining or grazing activity.
