                Survey, was founded in 1883 by the Arizona legislature as the Office of the
                Territorial Geologist. Since its founding, the Arizona Geological Survey has been
                several Territorial and State Geologic Agencies, including the Arizona Bureau of
                Mines from 1915 to 1977. In 1893, the University of Arizona acquired the role of
                geologic mapping and reporting and still maintains this mission with the Arizona
                Geological Survey. This collection contains three production data logs from the
                Arizona Bureau of Mines with information about the production of copper, gold, lead,
                silver, and zinc in Arizona counties from 1858 to 1977. |  |  |  | Repository: | University of Arizona Libraries, Special Collections |  |  |  | Subjects: | Mining corporations -- Arizona | Geology--Arizona | Mines and mineral resources -- Arizona --
