Leighty Arizona Geological Survey www.azgs.az.gov 2007 The Pearl Mine The Swilling Mine & Melchizedek Mine encompass Harbushka Silver Mine deposits Property another location on the Cross-cut, is opened by a shaft 100 feet deep; it shows a strong vein of high-grade milling ore, and is one of the most promising claims in the camp. The Swilling is north of the Tip Top; it has 2 shafts, 110 and 50 feet, respectively. It carries a 3- foot vein of milling ore assaying $50 per ton. The Virginia No. 2 is on Tula creek, about four miles from Tip Top. It shows 18 inches of free-milling ore, ranging by assay from $100 to $1000 per ton. The mine is has two shafts, 140 and 80 feet deep, and has produced $10,000 silver. What is the Rowe claim is near the Crosscut; it contains some very rich ore, and is has a tunnel and several shafts. A number of tons of ore from this mine have been shipped to San Francisco, averaging from $500 to $1000 per ton. The Basin mine is three miles west of the Tip Top. It has been worked for several years—the ore being reduced in a custom mill—and has paid a handsome profit to its owners. The mine has produced a great deal of bullion, but the exact figures are not at hand. The "76" has a small vein of high-grade ore of a similar character to the Tip Top, which assays from $200 to $1000 per ton. Three tunnels—200, 120, and 85 feet each has driven on the claim. The Incas is a narrow vein of exceedingly rich ore, assaying from $100 to $1,800 per ton. These others, which carry rich ore and give every promise of becoming valuable when developed. The ores of the camp are nearly all silver bearing. Tip Top This district is about fifty miles southeast of Prescott in the spurs of the Bradshaw range. The camp was been noted for the richness of its ores, and is a favorite of chlorides, or poor miners who get out their "rock" and have it reduced at custom mills. This formation is micaceous granite, and the veins, though small, are compact and regular. The district has produced more bullion than any other in Yavapai County has, and its mines steadily improve in size and richness as depth reached. The Tip Top is the principal mine of the camp; it was discovered in 1875, and has been worked continuously ever since. The main working shaft is down nearly 600 feet, and the claim is thorough opened by levels, winzes, tunnels, etc. The vein averages from 1 foot 18 inches in width; the ore is sulphuret, carrying quantities of ruby silver, and assaying $300 per ton. A 10-stamp mill and roaster is in operation on the Agua Fria, about nine miles from the mine. This is one of the best properties in the county, and has produced over $1,200,000. The Cross-cut is west of the Tip Top. 3 The largest vein in the district. It is traceable across the country for several miles and located nearly all the way. The Foy, a location on this ledge, shows 2 feet of ore assaying from $75 to $200 per ton. It opened by a shaft 180 feet deep, and by several open cuts. (Silver price in 1910 $1.00 per oz.) Rock Springs The Chalk Canyon formation has exposed in the eastern Rock Springs area (Figure 7). Pumice-rich tuff, lithic tuff, and tuffaceous sandstone (Tts and Tst) are present between the Bland Quartz Diorite (Xgd) basement and the lowest Chalk Canyon Formation basaltic lava (Tbl). Above the lowest basaltic lavas, three basaltic flows are in bedded with pebbly arkosic sandstones. The lowest two flows have a dark-reddish brown color and are scoriaceous, whereas the upper unit is a bluish-gray, amygdaloidal lava. The section is capped by two bluish-gray basaltic flows (Tbm) that are separated by a 0.5-m-thick scoriaceous sandstone layer. This relationship between gray-weathering basalt over brown-weathering basalt is also observed in other areas (e.g., southern Black Mesa, southern Perry Mesa, etc.). The Ore Tip Top ground and quartz is usually exceedingly hard but brittle. This quarts at the surface contained, as a base, hematite of iron, a small percent of zinc (black jack); also a small percent of antimony, the latter in the form of brittle silver (antimonial silver), usually assaying around 3,000 oz.

  • Incorporated Municipality Highpoints Compiled by Scott
    Maricopa County (AZ) Incorporated Municipality Highpoints Compiled by Scott Surgent, Initial draft: December 4, 2012. There are 24 incorporated towns and cities (municipalities) within Maricopa County. The highpoints of each municipality was determined by referencing http://www.citypopulation.de/php/usa-arizona.php , which shows the boundary of each municipality in detail, then referencing the topographical maps at www.mytopo.com , and carefully matching the boundaries from both sources together. The highpoint is within (or on) the boundaries, and excludes any higher ground within unincorporated county enclaves. Some municipality highpoints have a strong “permanency” since the boundaries are unlikely to grow, or impossible if the municipality is locked in by surrounding municipalities. On the other hand, some municipal boundaries may grow and absorb higher land. A note regarding each municipality highpoint is given at the end. Latitude and longitude coordinates are derived from mytopo.com. Avondale: Unnamed Peak 3,650+ feet, Estrella Mountains Regional Park, N33.294114, W112.32197.

  • Viability Analyses for Vascular Plant Species Within Prescott National Forest, Arizona
    Viability analyses for vascular plant species within Prescott National Forest, Arizona Marc Baker Draft 4 January 2011 1 Part 1. Description of Ecological Context (Adapted from: Ecological Sustainability Report, Prescott National Forest, Prescott, Arizona, April 2009) Description of the Planning Unit Prescott National Forest (PNF) includes mostly mountains and associated grassy valleys of central Arizona that lie between the forested plateaus to the north and the arid desert region to the south. Elevations range between 3,000 feet above sea level along the lower Verde Valley to 7,979 feet at the top of Mount Union, the highest natural feature on the Forest. Roughly half of the PNF occurs west of the city of Prescott, Arizona, in the Juniper, Santa Maria, Sierra Prieta, and Bradshaw Mountains. The other half of the PNF lies east of Prescott and takes in the terrain of Mingus Mountain, the Black Hills, and Black Mesa. The rugged topography of the PNF provides important watersheds for both the Verde and Colorado Rivers. Within these watersheds are many important continuously or seasonally flowing stream courses and drainages. A portion of the Verde River has been designated as part of the National Wild and Scenic Rivers System. Vegetation within PNF is complex and diverse: Sonoran Desert, dominated by saguaro cacti and paloverde trees, occurs to the south of Bradshaw Mountains; and cool mountain forests with conifer and aspen trees occur within as few as 10 miles upslope from the desert . In between, there are a variety of plant and animal habitats including grasslands, hot steppe shrub, chaparral, pinyon-juniper woodlands, and ponderosa pine forests.

  • Management Area Direction
    Chapter 5. Management Area Direction Riparian vegetation along the upper Verde River Introduction The 1987 “Prescott National Forest Land and Resource Management Plan” included specific direction on how to manage different land areas based on ecological characteristics. In this revised plan, we have addressed ecological variation using other methods (see chapters 1 and 2). Management area boundaries were selected based on human geographic boundaries, so that guidance in response to social or economic issues could be better identified to meet each community’s needs. As plan revision steps progressed, we asked ourselves which aspects of the plan needed to be addressed differently based on geographic location. The response was that recreation needs and desires were likely to be different for various parts of the Prescott NF. In addition, the Verde Valley area had specific desires relative to maintaining and enhancing open space. The Prescott NF was divided into human geographic areas based on descriptions of communities located near and within the Prescott NF (Komar and Schultz, 2007). Using methods developed by James Kent and Associates, geographic areas were mapped indicating where people from various communities feel strongly about conditions and events. Communities were then invited to develop community visions for the Prescott NF and other surrounding lands. Land and Resource Management Plan for the Prescott NF 97 Chapter 5. Management Area Direction In a more recent effort to develop a recreation strategy for the Prescott NF, similar boundaries were used to divide the forest and surrounding area into three zones. In this plan, those zone boundaries were adjusted slightly and are called geographic areas.
