Manhattan is an unincorporated town in Nye County, Nevada, located at the end of Nevada State Route 377, about 50 miles (80 km) north of Tonopah, the county seat.

It originally was founded in 1867 as part of the silver mining boom. George Wheeler found the district abandoned in 1871. Then, in 1905, as part of the gold boom, "4,000 people flood(ed) into the region". The Nye and Ormsby County Bank, the only stone structure to be built in the town, was erected in 1906, but a decline followed the 1906 San Francisco earthquake and the 1907 depression.

In 1904, "Mom" Ronzone first started selling socks to Manhattan miners, the beginning of a retail career that would result in Ronzone's department stores in Tonopah, then Las Vegas.

Another boom in 1909 resulted in mining continuing into the late 1940s. Major mining operations opened and operated through the 1970s to the 1990s, but production has recently scaled back significantly.

Detailed Mineral List:

β“˜ Arsenolite
Formula: As2O3
Habit: octahedral, sometimes skeletal
Colour: commonly clear but are in some cases colored yellowish or reddish by included minerals
Description: Although H. G. Clinton offered arsenolite for sale in the 1930s, the best specimens resulted from the fire which ended the mine’s productive life. Arsenolite occurs as octahedrons, sometimes skeletal, ranging in size from minute to crystals over 2 cm across. The crystals are commonly clear but are in some cases colored yellowish or reddish by included minerals. Collectors have found nice euhedral crystals on charred mine timbers and on the walls of the vertical shaft.

Geochronology

Mineralization age: Miocene : 16.4 Β± 0.4 Ma to 16.0 Β± 0.5 Ma

Important note: This table is based only on rock and mineral ages recorded on mindat.org for this locality and is not necessarily a complete representation of the geochronology, but does give an indication of possible mineralization events relevant to this locality. As more age information is added this table may expand in the future. A break in the table simply indicates a lack of data entered here, not necessarily a break in the geologic sequence. Grey background entries are from different, related, localities.
