A former Ag-Au-Hg-Pb-Cu-Zn-W-fluorspar mining area in the Shoshone Mountains, centered around the town of Berlin, Berlin Canyon, Richmond Hill, Buffalo Mountain, and West Union Canyon.

“The pre-Tertiary rocks of the Union district are exposed in an elongate belt extending south from the town of lone for about 12 miles along the west flank of the Shoshone Mountains in the northwest part of Nye County, Nev. Within this area lies an exposure of a nearly complete sequence of stratigraphic units ranging in age from late Paleozoic to Middle Jurassic.”

“A wide variety of mineral commodities has been produced from the Union district. Listed approximately in their order of decreasing economic importance they include silver, gold, mercury, lead, copper, zinc, fluorite, and tungsten. The gross yield of the district from 1866 to 1940 according to the available county records was $3,304,328 (Couch and Carpenter, 1943). Of this total production of about 3.3 million dollars, more than half was produced before 1900.”
