I am originally from Grande-Vallée and everything that’s going on about the aluminous clay in the region captivates me. Lately when I learned that Orbite Aluminae had acquired a bunch of claims west of Cap-Chat, I was baffled. It made me realise that my comprehension of how those deposits were formed was very different from the geologist poin of view.
To me, the Grande-Vallée formations are very recent and unique. They were formed after the last melt down. Prior to that, aluminous clay formations were scattered around by the glaciers movement. I belive that after the last melt down, the valley was submurged for a long period of time and that twice a day the sea would rush in and deposit sediments in a salt water basin situated between the lac ao Diable (Devil’s lake) and the hills leading to Murdochville. Specially where your claims are located, I think you are on to something. Good lock.
I would like a reply telling me what you thing of my deductions.
