Geological GeoSites are divided into four distinct Groups.\u00a0 From east to west they are:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row padding_top=”0px” padding_bottom=”0px”][vc_column fade_animation_offset=”45px”][vc_column_text] GeoSite Group A is the\u00a0Ancient Continental Shelf of North America<\/em>.

This is the most widespread Geosite Group within the Geopark, covering large areas that surround ophiolite massifs of the Bay of Islands Igneous Complex, as well as areas immediately west and north of Corner Brook.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Read More …<\/a><\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″ fade_animation_offset=”45px”][vc_column_text][\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row padding_top=”0px” padding_bottom=”0px”][vc_column width=”1\/2″ fade_animation_offset=”45px”][vc_column_text]Bay of Islands Ophiolite Complex<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n GeoSite Group C includes the Bay of Islands Complex Ophiolite Massifs. These are the most obvious and spectacular natural features in the Geopark, forming high upland plateaus and dissected mountainous terrain. There are four such massifs located north and south of the Bay of Islands.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Read More …<\/a><\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″ fade_animation_offset=”45px”][vc_column_text][\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row padding_top=”0px” padding_bottom=”0px”][vc_column width=”1\/2″ fade_animation_offset=”45px”][vc_column_text]Little Port Island Arc Complex<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n GeoSite Group D includes the\u00a0Little Port Island Arc Complex<\/em>\u00a0of unseparated plutonic and volcanic rocks that form narrow northeast-trending coastal slices between Fox Island River and Bonne Bay. The Complex overlies the Humber Arm Supergroup in most places, but between Trout River and Bonne Bay it overlies the Skinner Cove and Old Man Cove formations.\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Read More …<\/a><\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″ fade_animation_offset=”45px”][vc_column_text][\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [vc_row padding_top=”0px” padding_bottom=”0px”][vc_column fade_animation_offset=”45px”][vc_column_text]Geosites in Cabox Geopark are to be … Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"template-layout-full-width.php","meta":{"footnotes":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/caboxgeopark.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/300"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/caboxgeopark.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/caboxgeopark.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/caboxgeopark.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/caboxgeopark.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=300"}],"version-history":[{"count":76,"href":"https:\/\/caboxgeopark.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/300\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9293,"href":"https:\/\/caboxgeopark.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/300\/revisions\/9293"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/caboxgeopark.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=300"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}\n
