About this map

The uranium and vanadium mining hub of Uravan sits along the San Miguel River, its industrial purpose etched into the landscape through infrastructure like Tailings Ponds and the Club Mines Airstrip. This 1960 revision reflects an era of intense resource extraction in western Colorado, where a network of tunnels and shafts punctuate the high mesas and canyons. Dozens of specific operations are identified across the terrain, including the Rock Raven Mine, Sunbeam Mine, and the clustered Bitter Creek Mines.
