About this map

De Lamar serves as the focal point for this 1960s survey of the Owyhee mining district, where the complex geography of silver and gold claims is meticulously recorded. The landscape is defined by the legacy of extraction, with numerous named workings such as the Democrat Mine, Ida Belle Mine, and Starlight Mine dotting the drainages of Jordan Creek. Settlement patterns from earlier booms are preserved as archaeological locations, including Wagontown (Site) and Dewey (Site), providing a window into the transitory nature of high-desert mining towns.
