1953 Map of Pioche

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Mining operations dominate the landscape around Pioche and its surrounding highlands, reflecting decades of silver and lead extraction. This 1953 field-checked study, updated with 1969 aerial revisions, reveals a dense network of shafts and tunnels, such as the Raymond Ely Extension Mine and the Centennial Shaft, clustered near Treasure Hill and Lime Hill. The intricate industrial footprint is further evidenced by the Pioche Mines Mill and the Prince Mine and Mill, where waste processing created notable Tailings Ponds in the lower valleys.
