About this map

Tungsten Hills and the high elevations of the Sierra Nevada define this landscape, where post-war mineral extraction shaped local settlement patterns. Industrial activity is centered on the massive Pine Creek Mine complex, which includes the Pine Creek Mine-Zero Adit and the Pine Creek Tungsten Mill. Nearby, the community of Scheelite and the residential area of Rovana support the workforce, while the Vanadium Ranch points to the specific ores being pulled from these slopes.
