The town of Lucky Boy was born as a result of the discovery of lead-silver ore in the vicinity in 1906. The camp experienced a boom in 1908 when exploration opened a number of rich veins in the district. Lucky Boy's population peaked in the 1910 at over 800, then declined rapidly as the high grade was mined out. The mines produced ore on a small scale through the 1950s.

Montezuma was the site of extensive mining activity from the 1860s-1880s but was dormant in the early 1900s when the Goldfield strike was made. According to the information painted on the front of the "Road House" of the "Montezuma Trading Company", the traveler or prospector could purchase "Wines & Liquors, Tobacco, Miners Supplies, Hay & Grain, and Groceries" at the store. Montezuma was located in the Montezuma Mountains seven miles west of Goldfield and was experiencing a resurgence precipitated by the discoveries at Goldfield.
