If you are a student writing a report and would like to use material from this site, you need to keep these things in mind:

Nearly all the geologic data has been attained from published materials authored by researchers not associated with this website.  Consequently, I cannot (nor can anyone else for that matter) claim copyright to data used to make geologic overlays for the maps herein.  Although many taxpayer-sponsored publications are available for public, non-commercial use, it is necessary to cite the source.  Additionally, there are artifacts, omissions, and yes, some errors in the geologic maps.  Eliminating the errata itself is not a priority--these things will be corrected as I find time to do so in a structured, deliberate manner.

Unless otherwise indicated, all text is my own.  If you want to use it, go ahead... however, keep in mind that this isn't published work, it hasn't been edited by the USGS or the AZGS.  If you are attending Geoscience classes at U of A., some of the professors hidden in the nooks and crannies of Gould-Simpson are expert on this subject.  If you can find them with free time, I bet they can answer questions you might have about the CMCC.  If you are a gambler, and you don't mind asking an amateur, you can email me: gcolin5@yahoo.com.  (please put "CMCC" in the subject box so that your message won't be mistaken for spam, thank you)

All photographs and photomicrographs, unless indicated as otherwise, are my own.  If you are  compelled to copy then do as you must...  but keep in mind that I am not a recognized authority on the complex and you should properly cite your source.  Good luck.
