About this map

Uranium and oil extraction define this high-desert landscape in southeastern Utah during the late 1980s. The northeast corner of the map is dense with industrial history, featuring the San Juan Shaft Mine, Homestake Mine, and La Sal No 2 Mine along the slopes above Big Indian Wash. These operations, along with the Small Fry Mine, Standard Mine, and others, highlight a period when the mineral resources of the Colorado Plateau were actively being tapped.
