Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mineralogy of Arizona It is well known to students of mineralogy that the greater num ber of interesting minerals are found at some depth below the surface in regions where the destructive effect of erosion and the decomposing action of meteoric water are not active and hence can be reached only by expensive exploitation rarely undertaken ex cept when compensation is hoped for in the possible discovery of the precious or useful metals. Arizona is attracting considerable attention on account of its unusual mineral resources, and its mountains and cafions are filled with excavations which are evi dences of the enthusiasm with which the search is carried on. Thus formations are penetrated and minerals exposed to view which, lacking this incentive, would never have been discovered.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoir of the Proposed Territory of Arizona The New Territory Of Arizona, better known as the Gadsden Purchase, lies between the thirty-first and thirty-third parallels of latitude, and is bounded on the north by the Gila River, which separates it from the Territory of New Mexico; on the east by the Rio Bravo del Norte, (Rio Grande, ) which separates it from Texas; on the south by Chihuahua and Sonora, Mexican provinces; and on the west by the Colorado River of the West, which separates it from Upper and Lower California. This great region is six hundred miles long by about fifty miles wide, and embraces an area of about thirty thousand square miles. It was acquired by purchase from Mexico, during the mission of General Gadsden, at a cost of ten millions of dollars. In the original treaty, as negotiated by General Gadsden, a more southern boundary than the one adopted by the Senate of the United States in confirming the treaty, was conceded by Santa Anna. The line at present is irregular in its course, and cuts off from our Territory the head of the Santa Cruz river and valley, the Sonoita valley, the San Bernardino valley, the whole course of the Colorado river from a point twenty miles below the mouth of the Gila river, and, worse than all, the control of the head of the Gulf of California, and the rich and extensive valley of Lake Guzman, besides a large and extremely valuable silver region, well known both to Mexicans and Americans - the planchas de la Platte. General Gadsden's line included nearly all the territory south of the Gila river to the thirty-first parallel of latitude - all the advantages above mentioned gave us the mouth of the Colorado river, and probably a port near the head of the gulf at Adair's Bay. We have no accurate survey of the west coast of the Gulf of California, but I am strongly of opinion that the original line conceded by Mexico would have thrown a portion of the gulf into American hands, by cutting off an arm of it extending east and north from the main body of water. A port on the gulf is of great and immediate necessity to our Pacific possessions. Of this hereafter. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-10-26 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mineral Deposits of the Cerbat Range, Black Mountains, and Grand Wash Cliffs, Mohave County, Arizona The field work forming the basis of this paper is a reconnaissance made by the writer, under the direction of Mr. Waldemar Lindgren, during the period extending from October, 1906, to February, 1907. The purpose of the paper is to furnish a general idea of the charac ter, occurrence, distribution, and development of the mineral re sources of a part of western Arizona (see fig. 1) concerning which little has hitherto been known. The reconnaissance covered almost the whole of Mohave County, except some smaller camps in the ex treme north and in the southern part of the county, which could not be reached in the time allotted to the work. Owing to the desert conditions of the region - the scarcity of grass and water - a camp outfit was dispensed with and subsistence was obtained from the mining camps and prospectors. The general method of work employed was to make hasty sketch maps and sections of the various camps or mines, using a box compass and aneroid for determination of bearings and elevations, and tying the work wherever practicable to Land Office section or township corners, railroads, other surveys, and mining-claim monuments.

Download or read book Mineral Resources of the Chiricahua Wilderness Area Cochise County Arizona Classic Reprint written by Harald Drewes and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-29 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mineral Resources of the Chiricahua Wilderness Area, Cochise County, Arizona The Chiricahua Wilderness encompasses about 28 square miles of the rugged central part of the Chiricahua Mountains near the southeast corner of Arizona. The Chiricahua Mountains are a fault block typical of many of the ranges in southeastern Arizona. The rocks in the wilderness are mainly weakly deformed mid-tertiary volcanic and intrusive rocks chiefly rhyolite and monzonite that lie on shale and sandstone of Cretaceous age. Paleozoic formations, such as the Permian Concha Limestone exposed 2 miles northeast of the wilderness, presumably are present locally at a depth of several thou sand feet beneath the wilderness. The Cretaceous and older rocks of the area are considerably folded and faulted, but the mid-tertiary volcanic rocks are nearly flat and have been deformed only by a few high-angle faults. Southeastern Arizona and southwestern New Mexico is a region of high mineral production. Evidence indicates, however, that the wilderness itself has very low mineral potential, inasmuch as the volcanic rocks covering most of the wilderness are younger than the major mineralization of the region, which is Late Cretaceous or early Tertiary. Furthermore, the mineralization in the Cretaceous and older rocks exposed within a few miles of the wilderness is mostly weak and at only one place, 6 miles to the north, is of modest size. Thus, although the occurrence of similar deposits beneath the thick cover of volcanic rocks is conceivable, finding such deposits would be difficult, and recovering the metals in them would not be economically attractive.
