1942 Map of Oro Blanco

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

Mining heritage and ranching life define this borderland landscape in the early 1940s, where the San Luis MTS and Cobre Mtn rise above the international boundary. The settlement of Oro Blanco serves as a focal point for the region's extractive history, surrounded by numerous dormant operations including the Yellow Jacket Mine, Old Glory Mine, and the Austerlitz Mine. These labels suggest a shift in the local economy as older claims were recorded as abandoned by the time of the survey.
