Molybdenum, Uranium, Copper, Vanadium prospect · Utah, Arizona
discovered 1904 · produced 1948–1984 (36 years) · no recorded production since 1984
Drawn as a prospect: a shallow pit or trench dug to test for ore, not a working mine. The ore color stands for molybdenum, uranium, copper, vanadium. Federal records note the kind of operation and its status, not its depth or layout, so this is a typical example rather than a survey of this site.
