Atolia is a ghost town in the Mojave Desert near Randsburg, in northwestern San Bernardino County, California.

In 1904 and 1905, veins of the tungsten ore scheelite were discovered at a site east of the Randsburg gold mine.

Operations at the site were funded in part by Bernard Baruch and operated by the Atkins-Kroll Company, who organized the Atolia Mining Company in 1906.

[1][2]: 30 A weekly newspaper, the Atolia News, began publication in May 1916 under the editorship of Erwin Lehmann.
