1967 Map of Pamlico

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

The Garfield Hills serve as the backdrop for an extensive mining history documented during this 1960s field check. Scattered across the arid landscape are the remnants of early 20th-century extraction, most notably at the Pamlico (Site) and La Panta (Site), where once-active communities supported the local gold and silver industry. The concentration of claims is dense throughout the central terrain, including the Pamlico Mines and La Panta Mine, alongside smaller operations like the Lazy Man Mine and Golden Bomber Mine. This survey captures a landscape in transition, where the historic mining canyon network—including Pamlico Canyon and Never Sweat Canyon—meets the modern expansion of the Naval Ammunition Depot along the western reservation boundary. The network of jeep trails provides the only access to these high-elevation prospects, illustrating the challenging geography encountered by Mineral County prospectors.
