Abstract
The Silver Bell Range, some 50 miles west of Tucson, Arizona, provides a varying array of igneous and sedimentary rocks in an area of widespread copper mineralization. Two deposits have been explored, Oxide on the south end of the Range and El Tiro 3 miles northwest. Both are essentially disseminated deposits and exhibit a series of hydrothermal metamorphic stages superimposed upon a variety of geologic conditions.
