ARIZONA BUREAU OF GEOLOGY AND MINERAL TECHNOLOGY

The Arizona Bureau of Geology and Mineral Technology was established in 1977 by an act of the State Legislature. Under this act. the Arizona Bureau of Mines, created in 1915, was renamed and reorganized and its mission was redefined and expanded. The Bureau of Geology and Mineral Technology, a Division of the University of Arizona administered by the Arizona Board of Regents, is charged by the Legislature to conduct research and provide information about the geologic setting of the State, including its minerai and energy resources, its natural attributes, and its natural hazards and limitations. In order to carry out these functions, the Bureau is organized Into two branches: Geological Survey Branch. Staff members conduct research, do geologic mapping, collect data, and provide information about the geologic setting of the State to: a) assist in developing an understanding of the geologic factors that influ ence the locations of metallic, non-metallic, and mineral fuel resources in Arizona, and b) assist in developing an understanding of the geologic materials and pro cesses that control or limit human activities in the state. Mineral Technology Branch. Staff members conduct research and provide information about exploration, mining, and metallurgical processes that are needed in the development of potential metallic, non-metallic, and mineral fuel resources in Arizona. Guidance is directed toward the recovery and treatment of these resources by methods that are safe, efficient. and compatible with the environmental needs of the State.

SERVICES PROVIDED BY BUREAU PERSONNEL

1. respond to requests for information on the geology of Arizona 2. prepare maps and reports for publication or open file 3. maintain a library of published and unpublished maps and reports 4. maintain a repository for rock cores, well cuttings, and other samples 5. conduct qualitative tests on ores and minerai specimens native to Arizona 6. publish a quarterly newsletter, Fieldnotes 7. provide lectures, talks, displays and exhibits for the education of the general public

2 r'1 Metallic Minerai Districts and Production in Arizona

Introduction For certain districts, there is some question as to whether the Mineral districts presented herein and delineated on the en district is chiefly a copper-gold producing district (2) or (3), or closed map were defined according to geological criteria. chiefly a lead-zinc-silver producing district (4) and (5). The The principal goal was to arrange known metallic mineral oc following criteria were used for Copper-Gold-producing currences into discreet metallogenic systems of similar age and vein districts: 1) Either gold or copper must be the single style of mineralization. It Is strongly stressed that many of the commodity with the highest dollar value, based on average metallic occurrences have poorly understood geological con yearly values, through the 1800s to 1957, and on values re trols and hence, many of the district boundaries will change as ported to the U.S. Bureau of Mines from 1958 to 1981. knowledge of both their deposits and geologic settings is im 2) The ratio of sliver/gold (in ounces) must be less than 30/1. proved.

For example, the Aguila district [manganese "Saginaw Hill" districts shown on the Metallic Mineral District veins (6a)] has also been known as Bighorn, as shown in the Map (1983). Tucson Mountains is a synonym of the entire region, 'Other Names' column of the index.
