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

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 --
