Pampa Unión fue un poblado de Chile situado en la provincia de Antofagasta (antiguo cantón de Antofagasta)^[1] fundada en 1911 por la iniciativa de un médico llamado Lautaro Ponce Arellano ^[2] como asentamiento dedicado a la explotación del salitre. El doctor Lautaro Ponce solicitó la primera concesión para construir un hospital si bien se fundó como Sanatorio Pampa Blanca, este no llegó a erigirse.^[3] Su desmantelación se produjo en 1954.^[4]^[3] El pueblo llegó a tener una población de por lo menos 2000 habitantes, aunque su población flotante era mucho mayor (entre 10 000 y 15 000 personas).^[3]
