Abstract

This map depicts the geology of the Wickenburg SW 7.5-minute quadrangle in Maricopa County, central Arizona. The map area is located south of Wickenburg and southwest of Highway 60. The map area covers the southeastern piedmont of the Vulture Mountains. It includes the inactive Wolf Mine and some small unnamed settlements along the piedmont. The Hassayampa River bisects the mapped area and controls most of the regional drainage. The Toyota Proving Grounds occupy part of the southwestern corner of the quadrangle, where access is restricted. The area was mapped during March through August, 2004. A 1:24,000-scale map is the primary product of this study.
