The Bobby’s Pond Zinc-Copper-Lead Project is located in the Buchans area of central Newfoundland.
|
| |
|
|
|
The area is renowned for the historic Buchans Zinc Mines (Production 1928-1984) and host to several other active volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) style projects. The most advanced of the projects is Teck Cominco’s Duck Pond deposit, which was put into production in 2007. The Bobby’s Pond deposit is located ~45 kilometres (km) west (by road) of the Duck Pond mine/mill complex.

Drilling to date has confirmed that a high grade massive sulphide zone exists from surface to depths of almost 500 metres. Thick intervals of low grade copper stringer mineralization currently define the edges of much of the deposit, and indicate that the mineralized system continues at depth.
