Projet Domiciliaire Écoquartier Champlain, Salaberry-De-Valleyfield, MRC de Beauharnois-Salaberry, Montérégie, Québec, Canada
Pocket bearing dolomitic limestone has been exposed during excavation works in the Écoquartier Champlain Housing Project in Salaberry-De-Valleyfield in 2014 and 2015. Blocks were dumped in a field nearby; I visited the site in June 2016 and found some small mineralized pockets and fossils.
Not a very exciting find, but another Beekmantown Formation locality to add in the database. Future workings might expose some larger pockets and finer mineral specimens.
