1969 Map of Quartz Mtn

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Broken Hills and the adjacent arid basins define this high-desert territory where Mineral, Nye, and Churchill counties meet. Recorded in the late 1960s, the landscape is primarily shaped by silver and lead mining interests clustered near the center of the sheet. The settlement of Quartz Mountain is shown alongside Quartz Mountain (Site), suggesting a shift in local habitation patterns or the relocation of a community center over time. To the south, several established workings such as the San Rafael Mine and Hasbrouck Mine occupy the slopes above Gabbs Valley. The map also traces a network of remote transportation routes, including a Jeep Trail and various unpaved paths connecting the Huntley Mine and White Pine Mine to the broader Lodi Valley.
