 COPPER BELT
Deposits of Different Camps in Sonoran Plateau De-
 scribed by Jno. F. Camp
 bell Who Points Out Simi-
 larity of Various Districts
BY JOHN F. CAMPBELL.

The geology of the different copper camps of the so-called Arizona Cop per Belt present many striking analo- gies. This copper belt comprises the mountain region of Arizona and ex- tends into Mexico, the whole section being called the Sonoran Plateau or Province. Through this whole Pro- vince the geology has a great simi- larity.
 Prof. Potter in his London report has called attention to four notable features of the geology of the Arizona copper camps, which are the sedi- mentaries. the igneous rocks, the de- formation and the ore occurrences.
 All these districts in the plateau have the same general structural fea- lures, and many the same structural type, the same agencies having been at work with the same results and, in general, the description of the geology of one would answer for the descrip.- ton of all. Not only are the same general series of rocks found in all the districts of this great mineral belt. but the same dynamic forces have affected lllt IDChS III lIlt same way, with the resulting phenomena, struc- tural conditions and ore occurrences evidencing remarkable general sinIi- larity. The mountain features are the typical monoclinal as opposed to the anticlinal, the results of intrusions. faults and displacements.
 The ancient basement series Is complex. presumably of a granite schistose structure, resulting from the schists, having been intruded by gran ties. These rocks were eroded and scored away before any other series Were reposed thereupon- Upon this basal complex. pre-Cambrian in age. several hundred feet of Cambrian quartzite have been laid. made up of sandstones altered to quartzite, in some horizons very course grained. resulting in a conglomerate structure. Resting unconformably upon the quartzite are approximately from one to two thousand feet of lime stones of the PaleoZoic age. Interstratified with these sediments are thin bands of shale.

In 1881, when Dr. James Douglas of Phelps, Dodge X Co, began his great work of developing the Copper Queen mine at Bisbee, the fuel was brought all the way from England, the Copper Queen being 700 miles from any railroad.

IGNEOUS ROCKS.


 The second notable feature In these great camps is the occurrence and char acter of the igneous rocks These in clude the varieties of granite, diabase. diorite, andesite. rhyolite, dacite be- salt and other porphyries of less i'm portance. These rocks occur mainly as intrusions in the forms of laccolites, stocks, dikes, sheets and sills, in the general series referred to above and in the later surface flows, resulting from eruptions of more recent times
 Aceording~<o relative age, there are four groups of igneous rocks. the Pre- Cainbrian granites, mentioned before intruding the basement series;z the Mesozoic intrusions. consisting dfS di abase and diorite, but especiallyf the quartz porphyries and monzon.tes. The third group is the Tertiary age and in cludes the andesites, dacites and rhy- olites as surface flows or underlying tuffs. The fourth group is the Guar ternary rocks, mostly basalts occur ing generally as surface flows.
 The third notable feature is the de- formation resulting from the intr1I- sions of the igneous rocks and also
 
 and cross faults, breaking the mass into irregular fitting tabular blocks. Later erosions and weathering have tended to soften these exposures, but have also emphasized them by scoring the surface into canyons and gulches.
 The fourth notable feature is the oc- currence of the ores and the effect of the porphyry intrusions upon the rocks, especially the limestones, as the results of cOntactism. The ore occurrences may be divided into three distinct types: First, tabular bodies in the limstones or the shades as replace ment along their planes; second, along contacts between the igneous rocks and the sedimentaries: and last, fis- sure veins and fractures and dissem- nations adjacent thereto, occurring us- ually in the intrusives as normal veins in porphyry, being usually a central vein and an altered mineralized DOT phyry on either side, the ore being disseminated.
 It must not be understood that each camp presents all of these features In some the later sedimentaries have been entirely removed, as for instance til .nistinl -dHu ftdN. At lfle IOTnler tie ore occurs in shear zones in the Pinal schist as disseminations in the dia- base intrusions.
 FORMATION AT RAY.
 In Ray the ore is found as second ary enrichment replacing some of. the minerals in a sheet which is either a rhyolite flow or a pioneer shale Au- thorities differ as to the exact char acter of this sheet. However, the flow occupies the identical stratigraphical position in the horizon that the pioneer shale does, and this fact together with it's appearance would suggest this idea. Through this sheet has occurred !ntrusions of granular rocks and a diabase, the latter undoubtedly being the mineralizing magma. as it ia also probably at Miami and London and several other localities in the plateau. Not only has the diabase been the agency that has resulted in ore bodies in other rocks. but also has retained some of the mineral "disseminated'' as pyrite and chalcopyrite. In the T g-g-
Arizona republican., 1909-07-30

maj vein in the diabase which consti- tutes their best ore body.
 In the London district all these fea- lures are in evidence though the i'm portant ore bodies so far developed are the replacements in the lime and along the lime porphyry contact. The whole series is here represented, an escarpment on the west end of the London-Arizona property offering a vertical exposure of approximately two thousand feet and showing the different strata from the lower mem bers of the quartzite up through the upper strata of the limestones. Here also is exposed the diabase intrusion and development has proven that the diabase contains disseminated miner als, pyrite and chalcopyrite. From the development it would be natural to conclude that the whole camp is more or less underlaid with this diabase, containing disseminated mineral offer ing a storehouse of copper for a fu- ture generation after the ore bodies of the upper horizon have been ex- hausted.
 SELF FlUxING ORES.
 From one to two thousand feet of limestone are supported by a quartz ite varying in thickness from 400 to 1000 feet Monzonite porphyry and di- abase dikes have intruded these sed- imentaries with an easterly and west erly trend, resulting in strong evil dences of cOntactism, such as garnet, iron, epidote and other contact-met- amorphic minerals
 At nearly right angles to these in trusions have occurred faults and dis placements. in many instances of great extent in their throw, resulting in the typical monoclinic structure.
 There is no better or stronger de- velopment of the surface evidences of the contact-metamorphic type of de- posit than at London. in the Sonoran plateau, with the exception of Can anea, where the shOwings are not stronger but of greater length The other contact -metamorphic types of de- posits of great importance are the camps of Silver Bell, Courtland, Bisbee, Globe and Clifton. All of these are strikingly analogous to each other
 Like all of this type of deposits the ores are largely self fluxing and direct smelling. Such development as has been done at London proves the ores to be especially favorable for smelting. comparing with the easily smelted ores of the Granby deposit in British Col umbia.
 That the Soronan p:ateau contains some of the greatest copper mines so far developed in the world, is recogniz- ed and undoubtedly wit develop many more.

Want to be strong?

Eat more Quaker Oats. Eat it for
Breakfast every day. This advice is
coming from all sides as a result of re-
cent experiments on foods to determine
which are the best for strength and en-
durance. 1t has been proved that eaters
of Quaker Oats and such cereals are far
superior in strength and endurance to
those who rely upon the usual diet Of
heavy, greasy foods.
When all is said and done on the
cereal food question, the fact remains
that for economy and for results in
health and strength, Quaker Oats stands
first of all. 1t is the most popular food
IN the world among the foods sold in
packages.

rHE SNAKE RIvER VALLEY.
Most Fertile Lands In the World
Found Along the Snake
River.

And the desert shall bloom as the
rose"
The prophet who made this predic-
ton should have the honor in other
counties as well as the others.
But yesterday vast expanses Of land
bearing nothing but sagebrush, cactus
and wierd romances; today a meta
morphosis more wonderful than a
Munchausan dream or an Aladdin
fancy is beholden at our very door.
A desert of barrenness and desolation
transformed, as it were, before our
very eyes, into an empire of wealth
and productiveness= where energy
thrift and common intelligence is re-
warded by returns heretofore un-
dreamed of in the annals of the
work-a-day world.
Again, to whomsoever we owe
credit for the great scheme Of irriga-
ton, all praise be unto him. Suffice
it to say that through this medium
of bringing water to waste places will
result more valuable acquisition to
any government than has been OBJ
tanned by all the wars of history.
Here in our immediate territory
we have busy cities, hustling towns
and progressive villages - happy
homes, magnificent churches, beauti-
full schools, where but day-gone-bye
was only the stiffness and void of a
waterless waste. And yet there was
water in abundance and to spare
a rushing, roaring torrent, awaiting
the intelligent distribution of the
abundance to the dry and parched
land: the mighty Snake, winding in
solitary grandeur in and out, hither
and yon, awaiting, we say, the posi-
bilities which would accrue from di-
verting its waters through the rich
and productive soil bordering it, to
the end that fields and gardens, or
chards, vineyards and meadows
might bring forth their quota of nour-
ishment to man and beast.
Here in this Idaho of ours we have,
for the sight-seer and pleasure seek
er, more wonders and more entranc-
ing panorama than can be found in
all the far famed tourist resorts of
the globe. Crashing cataract and
tiny brook, snow-capped buttes and
sun-kissed dell, yawning chasm and
ampithre of stone, placid lakes and
abysmal falls, magnificent canyons
and cloud-high delightful in
@teresting and awe inspiring, giving
to the student and admirer of the
handiwork of nature a true, deep and
abiding love for this favored spot
the gem of the Rockies.
. Here, where once roamed the pri-
NAL Red man; where later, vast
herds held undisputed domain;
where but a season ago might was
right here, awaiting to welcome the
settler with promises of prosperity,
health, happiness and independence,
is builded a commonwealth which
has verified the statements that
Westward the star of empire takes
her way and 1.-THE desert shall
bloom as the rose"
