MAP OF NEOTECTONIC (LATEST PLIOCENE-QUATERNARY)
DEFORMATION IN ARIZONA
by
C.M. Menges, and P.A. Pearthree.
Arizona Geological Survey OpenBFile Report 83~Z2
Arizona Geological Survey 416 W. Congress, Suite #100, Tucson, Arizona 85701
Includes 48 page text, 4 sheets scales: 1:500,000; 1:133,830; 1:121,000
This report is preliminary and has not been edited or reviewed for conformity with Arizona Geological Survey standards
to accompany MAP OF NEOTECTONIC (LATEST PLIOCENE
QUATERNARY) DEFORMATION IN ARIZONA by C.M. Henges
and P.A. Pear three
Footnotes - TABLE 1. KNOWN OR SUSPECTED QUATERNARY FAULTING IN ARIZONA

Fault symbols (in parens) are those used to label faults on accompanying map and appendices.
Reliability in identification of neotectonic (i.e., latest PlioceneQuaternary) faults.
R - Reliable i.e., faulting proven or probable fault with good control on neotectonic displacements.
F? - Very possible neotectonic-age fault or fault scarp. Usually this feature is an anomalous topographic scarp of neotectonic age that is likely due to faulting, although other nontectonic origins are ?ossible. Only those features most suggestive of faulting have been included. (See Explanatory text of map for more complete discussion of minimum inclusion criteria.)
Q? - Known or probable fault with geomorphic characteristics and/or offset relationships, suggestive, but not diagnostic, of neotectonic displacements. Usually precise stratigraphic control on neotectonic movement is lacking.
Most photo-interpretation used high-altitude (U2) black and white aerial photography (nominal scale 1:125,000) with uniform statewide coverage and generally good, but variable, image quality. Refer to Explanatory text of map for discussion of resolution limits.

Field data refers to data on scarp morphology, geometry, age, or presence or absence of faulting along a given feature conducted as part of this study, unless otherwise specified. (I) refers to a more reconnaissance field check, with collection of no or ambiguous data, in contrast to (X) that indicates a more thorough field study providing more usable and diagnostic data.
Topographic profiles refer to data on scarp morphology collected via topographic profiling transversely across scarps using Abney level and rod or tape.
Tectonic land form analyses refer to assessment of amount and rates of tectonic activity on a given structure or topographic feature based on either quantitative (X) or qualitative (v) assessment of associated landforms. Quantitative estimates employ the methods and parameters developed by W. B. Bull (see Explanation for accompanying map).
References listed are those that either provide a basic source for feature listed and/or basic data that compliments this map. This is not an exhaustive reference list; instead we have included mainly those sources that provide mapping and/or data directly of use to this study, and especially for those features either not visited or checked cursorily during this study. Lack of reference indicates this map/study is the sale source.
