In the preparation of a paper on the needs and methods of improvement in mining education, it was found that the field was an exceeding large one to cover. Consequently, this paper has developed into an effort to sum up what part of the field in mining education has already been cultivated, whether that field has been sufficiently cultivated and is producing results, and in what part of the field there lies the greatest harvest for the future. It seems to be a general conviction that education which does not help towards efficiency in life work, although it administers breadth of view, is a luxury intended only for a few. When such is the judgment of the majority, it is time that we considered making the system one for all. There should be less of the old idea of the three R's for all, with high culture for the wealthy, and more attention to the systematic instruction of the industrial unit, the man, and making him as efficient as possible as a man, as a citizen, and as an industrial producer. 14 p.

The intent of this publication is to provide individuals and companies anticipating mineral exploration or mining in Arizona with a clear picture of the permitting process. This document is an honest attempt to present all the permits that may be required by a mining operator in Arizona. Despite our best efforts, it is probably not complete. As an operator, it is your responsibility to obtain all necessary permits. Guides such as this will help, but we recommend you contact the federal, state, county and local agencies in the area where you plan to locate your operations. In addition to listing and describing the permits you may need, we have also provided suggestions on how to navigate the permitting process. Our suggestions focus on two crucial elements: 1) Have a good, well thought out exploration or mine plan, and 2) Communicate with regulatory agencies. Communication is essential and will save you time, money, and frustration in permitting your operations. The preparation of this text involved considerable effort. It is important that all of us, agencies, operators and concerned citizens alike - make an effort to keep it current and accurate. As you begin to work with this document and you find data missing, inaccurate, or out of date, we ask you to relay this information to: Bureau of Land Management Arizona State Office Attn: Mining Law Program Lead 222 N.

A listing of oil, gas and helium production in Arizona from 1954 to 2009. 26 p.

SUPPLEMENT 1-Records of wells drilled for oil, natural gas, helium, and stratigraphic information since publication of Arizona Well Information, Bulletin 185, 1972, by The Arizona Bureau of Mines.

Northern Arizona constitutes one of the few remaining unexplored and untested potentially hydrocarbon-productive onshore areas in the contiguous 48 states. The limited drilling exploration to date has proved the presence of oil and gas accumulations near the northeast corner of the state; and, significantly, it has indicated that other large areas have the basic geologic requirements for accumulations. For this review, "Northern Arizona" is considered to be that portion of the Colorado Plateaus province of the state north of the central mountainous region (Fig. 1). For discussion purposes, this portion of the state has been divided into two regions, "northwest" and "northeast." Data have been taken from well and production records of the Arizona Oil and Gas Conservation Commission and from Peirce and others (1970), Peirce and Scurlock (1972), and Scurlock (1973).

House Mountain is in the southwest part of the Sedona, Arizona 7.5 minute quadrangle, approximately 12 km southwest of the city of Sedona (Fig. 1). The summit area is a nearly circular erosional caldera 2.2 km in diameter that is breached on the northwest side by a narrow canyon through which an intermittent creek flows to join Oak Creek. Relief in the caldera is 270 m. The mountain is surrounded on 4 sides by US-89A, AZ-279, 1-17, and AZ-179. In constructing the map, all geologic contacts were traced in the field. Map units were defined on the bases of lithology and stratigraphy; stratigraphic relationships were determined in the field by using traditional geologic principles such as superposition and cross-cutting relationships.

The Sullivan Buttes Latite is an intermediate, high-potassium volcanic rock located in the Transition Zone geologic province of central Arizona. The latite outcrops in Chino Valley, along the southwestern border of the Colorado Plateau. Lava flows, volcaniclastic deposits, and intrusive bodies of latite are found in the Chino Valley area (Tyner 1984). Radiometric dates of 21 to 27 Ma have been obtained from the latite, placing them in the Upper Oligocene to Lower Miocene (Nealey and Sheridan 1989). The latite is of interest as it contains a distinctive xenolith suite. The suite includes eclogite, amphibolite, clinopyroxenite, garnet websterite, granulite, and spinel peridotite (Nealey and Sheridan 1989). Xenocrysts of pyroxene, amphibole, plagioclase and quartz are common in the latite (Tyner 1984), and have been interpreted as originating in the lower crust to upper mantle. The xenoliths have been the subject of considerable study, including work by Arculus and Smith (1979); Schulze and Helmstaedt (1979); and Tyner and Smith (1986). The latite was characterized chemically and petrographically in detail by Tyner (1984), who was able to identify six distinct units within the latite on the basis of geochemistry and mineralogy. These units are amphibole, amphibole-biotite, biotite-pyroxene, mafic, basaltic, and upper latite.
