The SEZ has a 15 total area of 3,878 acres (16 km2). In 2008, the county population was 20,005, while adjacent 16 Riverside County to the west in California had a population of 2,087,917. The towns of 17 Quartzsite and Salome in La Paz County are about 18 mi (29 km) west of, and 18 mi (29 km) 18 east of, the SEZ respectively. The Phoenix metropolitan area is approximately 100 mi (161 km) 19 to the east of the SEZ, and Los Angeles is approximately 230 mi (370 km) to the west. 20 21 The nearest major road access to the SEZ is via U.S. 60, which runs southwest to 22 northeast, along the southeast border of the Brenda SEZ. The nearest railroad stop is 11 mi 23 (18 km) away. The nearest airports serving the area are the Blythe and Parker (Avi Suquilla) 24 Airports, both approximately 50 mi (80 km) from the SEZ, and neither of which have scheduled 25 commercial passenger service. The Sky Harbor Airport in Phoenix is 125 mi (201 km) to the 26 east, and Yuma International Airport in Yuma is 104 mi (167 km) to the south, of the SEZ. -

Geochronology, Geology, and Listric Normal Faulting of the Vulture Mountains, Maricopa County, Arizona
Arizona Geological Society Digest, Volume XII, 1980 89 Geochronology, Geology, and Listric Normal Faulting of the Vulture Mountains, Maricopa County, Arizona by WA. Rehrigi, M. Shafiqullah2, and P.E. Damon2 Abstract Geologic mapping and geochronologic studies in the Vulture Mountains near Wickenburg, Arizona, have led to the recognition of a large, northeast-trending batholith of 68.4-m.y. age that intrudes complex gneissic and granitic rocks of probably Precambrian age. Over- lying the denuded crystalline terrane is a sequence of late Oligocene to Miocene ( .'26 to 16 m.y.) volcanic rocks (vitrophyres, ash-flow tuffs, welded tuffs, breccias, agglomerates, and lava flows) that vary locally. Nearby source areas are suggested. A swarm of north- to north-northwest-trending porphyritic dikes intrudes the volcanics and crystalline basement. Overlying this volcanic sequence in angular unconformity is a thin section of basal conglom- erate and basalt lava flows dated at 13.5 m.y. B.P. The older, tuffaceous sequence is generally calc-alkalic but with a high proportion of rhyolites that are exceptionally rich in potassium and silica. These silicic units are peral- kaline or nearly so, and those with K20/Na2O >3 are ultrapotassic. Initial strontium ratios average 0.7081, whereas an initial ratio for the younger basalt sequence is significantly lower at 0.7054. The silicic volcanics have been severely tilted on multiple, low-angle listric normal faults. The youngest basalt flows are relatively flat lying and postdate this deformation. By geo- logic and radiometric criteria, the transition from tilted silicic volcanics to untilted basalts occurred between about 16 and 14 m.y. -

Geologic Map of the Western Harcuvar Mountains, La Paz
GEOLOGIC MAP OF THE WESTERN HARCUVAR MOUNTAINS, . LA PAZ COUNTY, WEST-CENTRAL ARIZONA by Stephen J. Reynolds and Jon E. Spencer Arizona Geological Survey Open-File Report 93-8 June, 1993 Arizona Geological Survey 416 W. Congress, Suite #100, Tucson, Arizona 85701 Includes map, scale 1:24,000 Completed as part of the Cooperative Geologic Mapping Project (COGEOMAP) This report is preliminary and has not been edited or reviewed for conformity with Arizona Geological Survey standards INTRODUCTION The western Harcuvar Mountains are a fairly rugged~ fairly inaccessible range located north and northwest of Salome in west-central Arizona. The area was mapped in a detailed reconnaissance manner on a 1:24,000-scale topographic base, with the initial intention of releasing the mapping on the Salome 1:100,000 quadrangle. As we proceeded with the mapping, however, we made some exciting new, and unexpected, discoveries. As a result, we decided to compile and release the mapping at 1:24,000, even though we have not covered the entire map area at a level of detail commensurate with that scale. The mapping represents approximately 30 person-days spent in the field between 1984 and 1991. In this report, we present the results of our mapping and reconnaissance structural studies. Some of the foliation attitudes in the northeastern part of the map area were measured by Robert Scott. Some aspects of the geology of the area have been discussed elsewhere (Bancroft, 1911; Tovote, 1918; Keith, 1978; Rehrig and Reynolds, 1980; Coney and Reynolds, 1980; Reynolds, 1980, 1982; Reynolds and others, 1986, 1988, 1989, 1991; Spencer and Reynolds, 1989; Spencer and Welty, 1989; Drewes and others, 1990; Reynolds and Lister, 1990). -
