Abstract

Within this area are found two small domes superimposed upon the McCarty syncline. North dome, the larger of the two, is located at the head of Rinconada Canyon. South dome is located in the southern part of the area near the mouth of the canyon. Thus far the mineral resources of the area have been of little economic value. There are, however, large deposits of commercial uranium deposit at depth which cannot be disregarded.
