The Pocologan River and Long Reach areas are situated in the New River belt, which comprises the westernmost exposures of Neoproterozoic rocks in southern New Brunswick. Previous mapping in the southwestern part of the New River belt indicated that Neoproterozoic and Cambrian rocks in the Pocologan River area are different from coeval strata in the Caledonia belt (Avalon /one sensu stracto ) in the Saint John area. Recent mapping in the Long Reach area has shown that there are significant lithological changes across the Robin Hood Lake fault, which bisects the New River belt into northeastern (Long Reach) and southwestern (Pocologan River) segments. Neoproterozoic and Cambrian rocks in the Long Reach area are directly comparable to those in the Caledonia belt, demonstrating that the New River belt is composite.  Recent data have also shown that Early Cambrian volcanic activity in the Pocologan River area is broadly contemporaneous with epeirogenic events related to a major sequence boundary in the Avalonian cover sequence. This suggests that the northeastern and southwestern segments of the composite New River belt may have experienced a similar tectonic event, possibly as separate but adjacent continental fragments or as geographically isolated parts of one Gondwanan terrane. The lithological similarity of late Early to (?) Middle Cambrian quartzose sedimentary strata in the Pocologan River area to Middle Cambrian rocks in the St. Croix belt in Maine also supports the suggestion that the St. Croix belt is part of this composite terrane.   RESUME  Les secteurs de la riviere Pocologan et de Long Reach sont situes dans la ceinture de New River, qui englobe les affleurements les plus a I'ouest des roches du Proterozoique supericur du Sud du Nouveau-Brunswick. Des travaux de cartographic anterieurs dans Ie sud-ouest de la ceinture de New River ont reve;le que les roches du Proterozoique supeerieur et du Cambrien du secteur de la riviere Pocologan constituaient des exemplaires uniques de stretcs contemporaines de la ceinture de Caledonia (zone d'Avalon au sens strict) dans la region de Saint-Jean. Des travaux de cartographic recents dans le secteur de Long Reach ont revele des changements lithologiques marques a travers la faille du lac Robin Hood, qui subdivise la ceinture de New River en deux segments : les segments nord-est (Long Reach) et sud-ouest (riviere Pocologan). Les roches du Proterozoique superieur et du Cambrien du secteur de Long Reach sont directement comparable? a celles de la ceinture de Caledonia, ce qui demontre que la ceinture de New River constitue unc ceinture composite.   Des donees recentes ont egalement retvele que I'activitie volcanique du Cambrien inferieur dans le secteur de la riviere Pocologan a en gros ete contemporaine aux phenomenes epirogeniques apparentes a une Iimite de sequence importante dans la sequence de couverture avalonnienne. Cela laisse supposer que les segments nord-est et sud-ouest de la ceinture composite de New River pourraient avoir ete soumis a un phenomene tectonique analogue, possiblement en tant que fragments continentaux distincts mais adjacents ou de parties geographiquement isolees d'un terrane du Gondwana. La similarity lithologique des strates seedimentaires quartzeuses de la fin du Cambrien precoce au Cambrien moyen (?) dans le secteur de la riviere Pocologan avec les roches du Cambrien moyen de la ceinture de St. Croix au Maine appuie par ailleurs l’hypothese que la ceinture de St. Croix fail partie de ce terrane composite.
