2016 Map of Tungsten

About this map

John H. Kerr Reservoir dominates this landscape along the border of Virginia and North Carolina, where its winding shoreline creates numerous peninsulas and islands. To the south, the settlement of Tungsten sits near the Tungsten Mine Rd, a name reflecting the historical industrial activity of the Hamme Tungsten District. The terrain transition between Mecklenburg County, Virginia, and the North Carolina counties of Granville and Vance is marked by a complex network of waterways, including Island Cr Reservoir and the flowing channels of Island Creek. Local history is visible in features such as Fields Cem and the small communities of Townsville and Woodworth. This map provides a clear view of the area's modern infrastructure, from Merifield Airport to the numerous residential roads like Broken Anchor Blvd and Serenity Point Rd that have developed along the reservoir's edge.
