Mineral Mountains
The 669th highest mountain range in the world
The Mineral Mountains are a 28 miles (45 km) long mountain range located in eastern Beaver and southeastern Millard counties in southwestern Utah. The Escalante Desert is to its southwest, the Black Rock Desert volcanic field and the Sevier Desert are to the north and northwest. The Pavant Range and Tushar Mountains lie to the east. The west side of the range borders the small Milford Valley with the Star Range beyond. Beaver River flows past the south and west sides of the range. The river is impounded as Minersville Reservoir adjacent to the southeast margin of the range. Milford Flat at the Mineral Mountains was the origin of the Milford Flat Fire which burned eastwards beyond Interstate 15 and Cove Fort into the Tushar and Pavant mountains. The mountains are also the source of the ornamental stone known as Utah Picasso 'Jasper', being more correctly a type of limestone or marble.
