What Did We Find at Rodney Pond? | Prospecting Newfoundland

We headed into the southern section of our Rodney Pond claims to see what we could find. The day started in thick fog, but before long, the heat moved in—and so did the challenge of getting through all that overburden! We did manage to uncover a few interesting rocks along the way. Come along with us and see what we found. 0:00 Heading Back to Rodney Pond 1:22 Leaving the Side-by-Side Behind 2:22 Crossing the Bogs 2:57 Back at the Copper Target 4:16 An Interesting Mineralized Vein 5:01 Chalcopyrite, Bornite and Barite 6:16 Following the Vein Uphill 7:05 Lunch in the Overburden 7:24 Prospecting Through Heavy Cover 8:12 Bog, Trees and Hidden Outcrop 8:46 Iron-Stained Quartz and Magnetite 10:21 The Long Trek Back Out 11:13 What We Learned and Our Next Trip #NewfoundlandProspecting #Rockhounding #Geology
