1942 Map of Oro Blanco

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Hard-rock mining operations dominate the high desert terrain of the Coronado National Forest along the international border in the early 1940s. The settlement of Oro Blanco serves as a central point for a landscape marked by numerous inactive extraction sites, including the Yellow Jacket Mine, Old Glory Mine, and Austerlitz Mine. These features illustrate the fading pulse of a once-booming mining district.
