1968 Map of Rodeo Creek NE

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Industrial gold mining operations and rugged high-desert topography characterize this 1968 survey of the borderlands between Elko and Eureka counties. The Carlin Mine serves as a major focal point, surrounded by heavy infrastructure including a Tailings Pond, a complex Aqueduct system, and a prominent Mine Dump. This landscape demonstrates the massive scale of late-20th-century open-pit mining at the height of the Nevada gold boom, contrasting sharply with the older, smaller-scale workings like the Blue Star Mine and Big Six Mine to the north.
