John Hinchey. The
synthesis and publication of results from previous work in
the Tulks Volcanic Belt of central Newfoundland is now
finalized and release is anticipated for the fall of 2011. This
area is a major focus for exploration for volcanogenic copper,
zinc and lead deposits. John’s work on sediment-hosted
copper mineralization in the Avalon Zone continued
through laboratory studies, and some of this will be featured
in Current Research 2012. In time, this project will provide a
full assessment of potential host rocks, and technical information
on all known occurrences.
Leon Normore continued 1:50 000-scale bedrock mapping
in the Avalon Zone of eastern Newfoundland with the
Random Island map area (NTS 2C/04). This area is to the
south of the Trinity and Bonavista map areas (NTS 2C/06,
NTS 2C/11) that were mapped during the 2009 and 2010
field seasons. The Random Island map area contains a
greater variety of rock types compared to areas to the north
and includes sedimentary, volcaniclastic, volcanic and plutonic
rocks. Field work focused on extending the previously
established stratigraphic framework of the Bonavista
Peninsula to the southwest into the Random Island area.
The well known copper-bearing Blue Point Horizon of the
Crown Hill Formation was found in several new localities
across the entire eastern edge of the map area. Copper mineralization also occurs in the chilled margins of the Herring
Cove Facies pillow lavas located between the Crown Hill and
Rocky Harbour formations.

Thats is North Lucky....Herring Cove is South Lucky
Here is the summary review from 2010..... still waiting for the report in 2012....
Leon Normore continued detailed mapping of the
Ediacaran rocks in the Trinity map area (NTS 2C/06), of
the Bonavista Peninsula, and immediately south of the
Bonavista map area that was mapped in 2009. The Trinity
area is underlain by terrestrial to shallow marine
Neoproterozoic rocks of the Rocky Harbour Formation
containing distinctive glacial deposits that provide excellent
marker horizons throughout the central portion of the map
area. Intrusive and volcanic components comprise a small
portion of the outcrop but add significant information
about the proximity of a siliciclastic sedimentary depocentre
to an active volcanic island-arc sequence
The northern part of the Bonavista Peninsula continues to
receive extensive industry and academic research due to the
sediment-hosted copper potential within the Rocky Harbour
and Crown Hill formations and the presence of Ediacaran
fossils around the Port Union area. Vale Exploration Canada
Inc. staked a large area of the Bonavista Peninsula in
December 2009, and their exploration field crews were
active in this area during the 2010 field season.

This is from the 2010 review
For those that think new should come out every day the same folks gathered at Cornerstone Tim Stead Leon Normore Tim Froude and Jon Thorson in 2004 interesting read on the size of the copper deposit largest of its type in the world? could be

Page 38 Leon Normore was there with Ken Stead and Jon Thorson and Tim Froude...what do they all have in common.....Newfoundland Helicopters Clarenville......and trips to the Bona Vista....
