Regional context, not property-specific evidence. The federal mineral resources record lists 2 workings within 5 miles of Sablon: 2 occurrences. None of them still produces. What was taken out: Gypsum-Anhydrite, Salt. Distance is straight-line from the map coordinates, so a quarry counted here may appear on a neighbouring settlement's page as well.

Every working recorded in San Bernardino County

The eight closest, with where each one stands in the county. Distances are straight-line, computed from the Geographic Names Information System coordinates.

Matched on this settlement's Geographic Names Information System number rather than its name, so it cannot be a different place of the same name in another state.

This settlement is recorded in the Geographic Names Information System as feature 1661349. The sheet list is computed by point-in-boundary test against the United States Geological Survey's historical topographic inventory.
