USGS Topo · Published 1958About this map
Gold and tungsten mining define the industrial landscape of the Mojave high desert in the early twentieth century. The Yellow Aster Mine dominates the northern slopes above Randsburg, a hub of activity where several roads and trails converge. This survey shows the early rail infrastructure critical to the region's extraction economy, including the Southern Pacific line through Rand and the Randsburg Branch of the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe, which connects the communities of Johannesburg, Atolia, and St Elmo.
