The Bonaventure formation is well developed
on this coast, from west of Bathurst to (Campbelltown).
It is here more light hick shaled than on morne in
the Lake Crock. The pettles and especially the laye
plies are angular cut off the sharp corners removed.
The deposition is irregular as in iron deposits, the
crop grows pinch in and out, and that in one calm
irregular can bedding. It is more found inland
more than 1/2 miles, and above the sea not more
than 700 feet. Off north west of Lickie Cove there
is an island all of Bonaventure formation.
