4:00 are Precambrian alaskite and
schist. The Lone Star Mine produced
20,000 tons of fluorite between 1946
and 1967 from a vein in the Pinal
Schist. The James Mine was a small
mine that produced several hundred
pounds of scheelite and wolframite
concentrate from quartz veins in the
alaskite. The hills in the foreground
at 2:00 are capped by cliffs of west
dipping Bolsa quartzite. The
prominent ridges on the skyline from
1 :00, to 3:00 are- Mississippian
Escabrosa formation that strikes NNW ,
and dips to the west at angles
between 20° and 30°. It overlies
Devonian,< Martin Formation and
Cambrian Bolsa quartzite that forms
the cliff halfway down the slope.
The small foothill in the middle
distance is also Bolsa quartzite
overlying Pinal Schist. 3.6
49.4 Hills in the middle distance at 3:00 are
north-striking, west-dipping (±25°)
Paleozoic units. The hills are capped
by Pennsylvanian Horquilla limestone
that conformably overlies
Pennsylvanian Black Prince limestone,
Mississippian Escabrosa limestone and
Devonian Martin Limestone.
. The high ridges on the skyline at
3:00 are made up of members of the
Permian Scherrer formation. Two,
north-striking thrust faults occur just

\300 f- /2-8 Sandstone. shale, limestone, and conglomerate of
Late Cretaceous age were deposited on an unconfonnity of great local relief that had been carved into the Paleozoic rocks. Deposition of the Mesozoic strata was marine and nonmarine in a prograding delta near the margin of a shallow sea that advanced northwestward into southeastern Arizona from Mexico. The Cretaceous stratified succession is about 8800 ft thick.
The youngest Mesozoic rocks in the roadless area are granodiorite in sills and a small stock, and intrusive rhyodacite in irregular sill-like masses. These bodies were emplaced into the Paleozoic and Mesozoic strata about 74 million years ago. They are the youngest rocks in the Whetstone Mountains, other than a Tertiary(?) dike near the south end of the range, and Cenozoic gravels that crop out mainly around the base of the mountains.
The principal structural feature of the Whetstone Mountains is a southwest-dipping homocIine of Paleo- . zoic and Mesozoic strata Steep faults and thrust faults in these rocks generally have displacements of a few hundred feet or less and do not significantly disturb the homocIinal pattern of the strata The homocline and faults probably represent deformation mainly during the Laramide orogeny of Late Cretaceous and Early Tertiary age. Additional deformation probably occurred during Basin and Range faulting in the Neogene.
MINERAL RESOURCES
The Whetstone Roadless Area has a substantiated resource potential for copper, gold, silver, and quartz and a probable resource potential for lead, copper, silver, gold, molybdenum, tungsten, uranium, and gypsum. Fluorite and mercury occur in or near the area but no resource potential was identified (Wrucke and others, 1983; McColly and Scott, 1982). Mining activity in the Whetstone Mountains dates from the 1870s, but no mines have yielded ore since the 1960's.
Copper ore containing minor amounts of silver was mined from a vein deposit in quartz-rich sandstone at the Copper Plate mine in the 1950's, and the mine contains demonstrated resources of 2000-4000 tons of lowgrade copper and occurs in an area of substantiated mineral-resource potential.
Copper also is known in Mine Canyon just outside the roadless area The copper occurs in a porphyry-type deposit in granodiorite and in vein and replacement sulfide deposits in granodiorite and skarn at nearby mines. The area of the porphyry deposit as well as the
• vein deposits has substantiated mineral-resource potential, based on demonstrated resources of 32 million tons of 0.28 percent copper and 0.01 percent molybdenum (DeRuyter, 1957). Records dating from 1918 show that 128
I ..-..
mines in the vein deposits have produced at least 136,048 lbs of copper, 900,000 lbs of lead, and small amounts of silver and gold. A probable mineral-resource potential for copper, lead, silver, gold, and molybdenum exists around the area of substantiated resource potential. This determination is based on the assumption that copper mineralization extends beyond the area explored by drilling and mining, and on geophysical evidence that the granodiorite widens at depth.
Quartz was produced for smelter flux during the 1950's from the Ricketts mine, located outside the roadless area, north of Middle Canyon. Demonstrated resources of 5000-6000 tons for each vertical foot of quartz exist in that part of the quartz body that extends for a distance of 800 ft westward into the roadless area and is shown on the map as an area of substantiated quartz resource potential.
Tungsten has been mined sporadically since about 1900 from an area 1 mi north of Middle Canyon. Most of the production was from veins at the Chadwick mine outside the roadless area, although the James mine within the roadless area has recorded production. All of the ore-grade deposits were exhausted prior to 1960. and there is little promise of additional deposits near the surface. A probable resource potential for tungsten in this area is based on the possibility that tungsten veins occur at depth.
High-grade fluorspar has been produced at the Lone Star mine, on the north side of Middle Canyon. Although the mine is about 1000 ft outside the roadless area the fluorite vein system might extend into the roadless area at depth. The mine is believed to have been the largest single producer of fluorspar in Arizona Although the workings are now inaccessible, a probable mineral-resource potential for fluorite is assigned to this area
Uranium deposits occur in veins in Proterozoic quartz monzonite and alaskite on the northeastern flank of the Whetstone Mountaiits. High scintillometer readings, chemical values for uranium, and the production of uranium at the Old Windmill No.1 mine in Cottonwood Canyon indicate that additional resources exist at the mine. Demonstrated resources of 47 tons of uraniumbearing rock containing as much as 0.094 percent uranium occur at the Star No.1 (Bluestone) prospect north of Middle Canyon. However, the concentration of uranium in the mine areas and elsewhere is spotty. The northern part of the Whetstone Mountains has a probable resource potential for uranium.
Gypsum occurs in Permian sedimentary rocks near the south end of the Whetstone Mountains, outside the roadless area, and these same Pennian rocks occur within the roadless area, indicating a probable resource potential for gypsum.

HISTORY The Whetstone District has been known for years to carry copper values. In years passed the
former owners were prospecting and looking for high grade ores that could be shipped without con
centrating.
In practically every place work was done, copp er values were encountered, but the owners did not
dream that this work was cutting a continuous dike of sulphide are. After years of }ndividual work
the numerous groups were consolidated into what is now the TWO. PEAKS MINING COMPANY, and
this large low-grade deposit WILL BE WORKED;
GEOLOGY Touching the western end of the property, an intrusion of granite is eX.posed, having a coarse
grained texture, the crystalline grains varying from 3 to {} mHimeters, the minerals detectable by the
eye are unstriated feldspare, quartz, biotite and occasionally crystals of amphibole. Running east the
te/ture exhibits porphyritic phases.
East of this granite intrusion is what appears to be dikes of granite-porphyry, monzonite-porphyry
and porphyry in the order named. The granite porphyry being distinguished from the granite by the
sharply bounded crystals embedded in a distinctly finer grained matrix..

body of primary ore such as this is would indicate a nd lead one to believe that it should go down to a
great depth. Numerous illustrations of the prima ry are bodies that are developed to a considerable
C(t-'pth could be cited, but as an example of a racen t developed primary ore body, you can take the
Verde Extension. By this it Is not meant that the properties ar e similar, but is merely a comparison on depth ot
primary ores. The ores found on this pro~rty are of a lower degree of enrichment, near the surface.
The limestone outcropping on the north and as at of the property is carboniferous. The fossils
rarely appear on the weathered surfaces but some corals and crinoid fragments have been found, two
species of "Eumetria Marcyi," "Phanerotinus Paradoxus" and "Brachiopods" were found.
The thickness of the beds have not as yet been determined. The limestone shows great power for resisting erosion and stands out very prominently. The
contact is not well exposed owing to the overburden. The beds strike approximately east and west and
dip 46 degrees south. Very little development in the limestone on the TWO PEAKS property has been done. but in
workings on the Mascot claim there shows a body of sulphide ore (Boronite) with some Covalite.
This ore occurs along altered beds, where segregat ion of the garnet has taken place. The ore seems
to follow the bedding planes more of less, this bodY mentioned bas a dip south into the AMzona claim.
and in depth probably would be encountered. AJ:I intrusion of Andesite crops out on the eastern
part of the Mesca.l claim, but so far is undeveloped and cannot be connected with the ore bearing
areas. -8-

DEV'ELOPMENT Development work has been confined principally to the monzonite porphyry and porphyry dikes. On
the Arizona claim a shaft eighty-five feet was sun k cutting are from the surface averaging abou t 1. 24
per cent. South of this shaft about 150 feet, a tunne.l was started on the Arizona claim running into
the Buck. At the mouth and in for a distance Of about forty feet the ore is oxidized and some leach
iU5 has taken place. From forty feet into the face, which is 205 feet from the mouth the sulphides
were cut, the average of this distance being 1. 87 per cent copper. 'l'wenty feet from the face, short
cross-cuts· were run north and south, disclosing th e same copper values.
About 300 feet above this tunnel another tunnel was run a distance of 40 feet. The average of
this 40-foot tunnel is 2.8 per cent. One car from he re was shipped to the Douglas smelter giving an
average of 4.03 per cent copper. 200 feet above th is tunnel an open cut was run, cutting about the
same 9re.
Numerous shallow shafts and open cuts have been done along the dike, cutting the same class of sulphide ores. (Study photos and maps) .
This property without doubt is one of the big 'copper deposits of Arizona, Porphyry outcroppings I J '1. I
along the Fairbanks. White Oak, Arizona, BUCk, Thomas and Near Christmas claims stand out in many places exposing oxidized and sulphide ores. (Surfaee Oxidation).
Samples taken from these various surface crop pings run from 1.2 per cent to 2.04 per cent coppeL
It is the present intention of the company to m nlS-' shaft 500 feet on the Fairbanks claim and then

Along with this \vork we expect to start cnu rn drill holes to a depth of 800 feet each with 200 foot centers. In this way the property can be prov.-'n U 1) and blocked out very quickly.
Tests have just been completed on 2.0 per cent ore from the Buck tunnel givIng a 75.0 per cent extraction by table concentration~ crushed to 20 mesh.
Oil flotation tests on the tailings from the tab Ie concentrates give a total extraction of 91 per cent.
As soon as possible the company will install a concentrator to work the low grade ore from the , ' "Buck."

developed on the ground. A great deal of timber c an be cut for mining and fuel while developing.
The officers ot the company are practical mining men. Mr. Trowbridgo has followed mining for thirty-five years. Mr. Akard has spent many years at practical minjD,g.
The management and direction or the work at the mines will be under V. G. Mellgren, B. S., E. M., mining and metallurgical engineer.
