The mining industry significantly contributed to the boom-bust cycle of Western towns by attracting large populations during mineral discoveries, leading to rapid economic growth and infrastructure development.

The volatility of mineral prices and the finite nature of mining resources exacerbated this cycle, leaving many communities reliant on a single industry vulnerable to collapse. Consequently, the mining boom fueled both prosperity and hardship in the West.
