The town of Buchans is four miles north of Red Indian Lake, in about the centre or Newfoundland, lat. 48° 50'W; long. 56° 46'W (see fig.1). The Buchans Mining Company Limited is a subsidiary of the American Smelting and Refining Company. The mineral rights are leased from Terra Nova Properties Limited, which is a subsidiary of the Anglo-Newfoundland Development Company Ltd. The town of Buchans is linked to the Canadian National Railway line at Millertown Junction by a private single-track line. This was the only means of ground transport to Buchans until a road to the Trans-Canada highway was completed in 1955.
