Arizona land value dispute centers on minerals and titanium
Witness Robert A. McColly of the Bureau of Land Management says land in 1883 was nearly valueless without minerals. About $1 million could be shaved from the award if mineral claims are excluded. He objects to pricing minerals like titanium, noting it was not used in 1883. The three million acres lie between Gila Bend, Face Mountain, Lake Pleasant, Dromedary Peak, and Picacho Peak, covering much of south-central Arizona. Over the next three months lawyers will file more arguments as the commission seeks a fair value.
