About this map

Turquoise Mountain dominates the central landscape of this eastern Mojave Desert quadrangle, where high-desert mining operations and water sources dictated the patterns of human activity. The map documents scattered mining sites, from the Yucca Mine in the north to the Wander Mine and multiple unnamed Open Pit Mines. These industrial traces are connected by a network of 4wd tracks and power lines that navigate the desert washes. The presence of Cree Camp near the southern boundary, alongside critical water points like Halloran Spring and Hyten Well, illustrates the essential infrastructure required for survival and industry in the arid basin between the mountain and the Silurian Hills. A gas pipeline and steel towers highlight the role of this corridor for regional utility transport.
