Sasco is a mining ghost town in Pima County, Arizona, west of Red Rock. Sasco, which is an acronym for the Southern Arizona Smelter Company, was a company town for the smelter, which served the Silver Bell mines. Sasco's post office was established July 10, 1907 and was discontinued September 15, 1919. At its peak about 600 people lived here. Remaining buildings include the impressive shell of the Rockland Hotel, extensive foundations of the smelter, and the old cemetery.
