Occurrence of the Andersons Cove Formation in southeastern Newfoundland

The Andersons Cove Formation is a formation which overlies the Belle Bay Formation in Newfoundland, Canada.[1] In 2001, Engineering & Mining Journal reported that Celtic Minerals Ltd. had staked a claim to a parcel of land at Terrenceville Junction to "cover prospective stratigraphy of the Andersons Cove Formation".[2]
