dc.description	The New River and Daisy Mountain 7112' quadrangles lie at the northeastern margin of the southern Basin and Range province in Arizona and on the north fringe of the Phoenix metropolitan area. Detailed mapping was conducted in that area to obtain more detailed structural and stratigraphic information about the possible southwestern extension of the Moore Gulch fault zone (Maynard, 1989) and relations between it and adjacent Proterozoic metamorphic rocks. Anderson (1989) divided these rocks into three groups, oldest to youngest: the Black Canyon Group, the Union Hills Group, and the New River Mountain felsic complex. Since these groups and the relations between them have not yet been adequately defined in the literature to qualify for official acceptence as geologic names, here they will be called groups 1, 2 and 3 respectively. When the Geologic Division of the U.S. Geological Survey was reorganized in 1995, fieldwork on this project was discontinued. However by that time most of the area where Proterozoic rocks are exposed in the two quadrangles had been mapped. A preliminary version of the New River quadrangle (Bryant, 1994) has been released. Here mapping in the western half of the Daisy Mountain quadrangle and a slightly modified version of the New River quadrangle are combined so that the map relations between rocks of the three Proterozoic groups and between them and the Moore Gulch fault zone and its possible southwestern extension can be viewed. Chemical data from some of the Proterozoic and Tertiary rocks and structural data from the Proterozoic rocks are summarized.
