Diamondfield, located 5 miles northeast of Goldfield, was settled in mid-February, 1904 as a result of the Goldfield strikes. It was founded by Diamondfield Jack" Davis, a reputed gunslinger from Idaho, who discovered gold at the site in 1903. The town soon supported a post office, saloons, a school, a church, and general merchandise stores. It reached its peak population of around 400 in 1907 and its mines shipped ore on a small scale through the 1930s."

The Belmont was Tonopah's second most prosperous mining company with a production of over $38,000,000. The 60 stamp mill, one of Tonopah's largest, was built in 1911 and crushed ore until August 1, 1923. It was dismantled in 1927. The company continued mining until 1929, when operations were turned over to the Budelman Syndicate which began leasing blocks of the mine. Leasing continued until October 31, 1939 when a fire of undetermined origin burned out the shaft timbers. The Belmont was the scene of Tonopah's worst mine disasters when an underground fire on February 23, 1911 took the lives of 17 men. The fire was apparently started by a miner's candle left behind in a pile of timber.

There was an inscription on the image. "The burro was the principal form of transportation used by prospectors in central Nevada at the turn of the century. The prospectors had a love-hate relationship with the animals, which were dependable and well adapted to the desert region, although they could be stubborn and cunning. As the automobile became the accepted mode of transportation, the burros were turned loose and roamed the streets and local trash dumps of the area's towns. They were one of the principal forms of entertainment for local children until they gradually disappeared from the metropolitan areas in the 1920s. The burros that roam Death Valley and the Marietta area of central Nevada today are descendants of those left behind by the prospectors."

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.
