Metallic (not shown on plate)
County: Nye
Comments: Described as “95 miles east of Pine Grove,” Metallic was possibly the same general
location as the historic Volcano district. Metallic City was in the Candelaria district, but was at a
later date and probably not related to this Metallic; the exact location is unknown.
