Fortune Head is a headland located about from the town of Fortune on the Burin Peninsula, southeastern Newfoundland. A thick section of rock along its cliffs is designated the Global Boundary Stratotype Section and Point (or GSSP) representing the boundary between the Precambrian era and the Cambrian period, million years ago. Fortune Head was selected in 1992 over similar rock sections in Siberia, Russia, and Meischucum, China.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Fortune Head Ecological Reserve )〕 because of its accessibility and abundance of fossils. ==Fortune Head Ecological Reserve== Fortune Head was established as a provisional reserve in 1990, and then given full ecological reserve status in 1992 following Fortune Head’s selection as the global stratotype. The reserve is in size. The Fortune Head lighthouse, which is operated by the Canadian Coast Guard, is also on the reserve and functions as a visitor center.
