On the Cover: The Ajo Mountain range in Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument. The volcanic range is located in the extreme southwestern corner of Arizona and the Monument shares a border with Mexico. The lithologies include a bottom rhyolite unit overlain by flows of breccia and ash-fall tuff, capped with more rhyolite. Early people used volcanic rock for tools and the abun- dant mica to amend clay used for pottery. Photo Courtesy of Dawn Garcia, CPG-08313
