About this map

The Tri-State Mining District dominates the northeast corner of this mid-century survey, illustrating the lead and zinc industry centering around Picher and Miami. To the west, the growing urban footprint of Tulsa is flanked by industrial sites like the Oklahoma Ordnance Works, a sprawling World War II-era manufacturing complex near Pryor. The region's transition into a recreational and hydroelectric hub is evident through major water projects like Grand Lake O' The Cherokees and Lake Spavinaw, which reshaped the terrain of the Ozark Plateau and Spavinaw Hills.
