Regional geologic map of the Baie Verte Peninsula showing the major lithostratigraphic units and igneous intrusions on both sides of the Baie Verte Line (BVL), and the locations of major gold occurrences. Map is compiled after Hibbard (1983), Mercer et al. (1985), Kean and Evans (1987), and Ritcey et al. (1995) with modifications. Inset: major lithotectonic zones of Newfoundland (Williams, 1979).

Figure 5. Enlargement of southern profile in the vicinity of the Baie Verte line–Cabot fault (BVL-CF). Prominent reflections between 3 and 8 s are abruptly truncated on the west (arrows), and lower-crustal reflectivity between 7 and 12 s is abruptly truncated on the east (arrows). This subvertical zone of truncations provides evidence that the fault zone cuts the crust at this location. The width of the fault zone at depth is uncertain.

Composite structural cross section interpretation modified from the composite seismic reflection line in van der Velden et al. (2004). Here, the proposed relic subduction zone below Notre Dame Bay is shown with a gradational colour to emphasize the ambiguity in the original seismic reflection data used to image this possible structure, unlike in van der Velden et al. (2004). The proposed magma pathways for the Notre Dame Bay Magmatic Province melts exploiting crustal-scale pre-existing structures at depth are shown in pink. The figure is shown with an approximate 1:1 aspect ratio (the same as van der Velden et al. (2004)) based on an average velocity of 6 km/s. Abbreviations: BVL = Baie Verte line; CBLT = Corner Brook Lake thrust; CMB = Central Mobile belt; DCT = Day Cove thrust; GBLF = Great Burnt Lake fault; GRUB = Gander River ultrabasic belt; HBF = Hermitage Bay fault; HMT = Hungry Mountain thrust; MM = Mount Cormack window; PT = Powerline thrust; ML = Mekwe’jit Line; SRF = Salmon River fault; VRT = Victoria River thrust; WBF = Wood Brook fault; WHF = Whitehorse fault.

Palinspastic reconstruction of Laurentia during Tremadocian (Early Ordovician) time, c. 484 Ma, showing the depositional context of the Durness Group in NW Scotland and the extent of the Great American Carbonate Bank (GACB) and inner detrital belt. During maximum Ordovician sea-level highstands, such as the basal Floian, the inner detrital belt would have been considerably smaller and the GACB correspondingly expanded; Fossilik in western Greenland, for example, was a site of active carbonate deposition during only maximum sea-level highstands. Map compiled from Derby et al. (2012b); Lavoie et al. (2003, 2012) and Smith and Rasmussen (2008), with additional data from Leslie et al. (2008), Ryan and Dewey (2019) and Smith (2000). The position of the palaeo-equator is based on Golonka (2002), and red lines indicate post-depositional fault movements; offshore terranes and arcs are not depicted. Modern coastlines and lake outlines are provided for reference and, for clarity, internal Caledonian deformation within allochthonous blocks is not depicted.
