The south-southeast side of the range is a straight stretch from Cunningham Wash, north and the Minersville Reservoir, south, a collection of numerous watercourses from Beaver Valley, and neighboring mountains.
Beaver River (Utah) enters the reservoir and leaves flowing due-west at the southern Mineral Mountains terminus.
A small, narrow 3-mile (4.8 km) wide ridgeline feeds north-northwest from the north stretch; it extends about 6-mi[3] toward the Black Rock Desert volcanic field region, and contains Pinnacle Pass, and a highpoint of Antelope Mountain, 7,230 feet (2,200 m).
Utah State Route 21 (SR-21) also transits through Milford, due-southeast to Minersville which sits at the range's southwest foothills.
By wany of unimproved roads, the southeast foothills-(south section) can be accessed from Adamsville located at the reservoir's north.
A minor, improved route, northeast of Adamsville, and west of Beaver, off SR-21, The Pass Road, to Soldier Pass, transits southeast-by-northwest through the center of the Mineral Mountains; it exits the range at the west, center foothills and transits northwest to Milford, from the foothills to Milford, about 7-mile (11 km) distant.
