History
It is a town located in the center of the state of Sonora, it was founded in the year 1706 and would obtain its current category of autonomous municipality in the year 1934. It is a community that was very successful as a mining area during the time of La Colony and Post-independent of Mexico, even though there are traces and vestiges of those times, we find the Las Ánimas and La Grande Mines as their greatest exponents. Founded in 1706 by General Antonio Becerra Nieto as the "Real de Minas de San Javier", San Javier has developed its history around this activity, mining. During the 19th century it had the category of mineral belonging to the district of Hermosillo, some time later it would obtain the category of municipality in the second half of the 19th century, but in 1930 it would be incorporated again into the municipality of Hermosillo, and later, in 1931, it would pass to the jurisdiction of the Municipality of Villa Pesqueira, and in 1934 to be incorporated into the municipality of La Colorada.
