Abstract:
Misima Island is situated 625 km east southeast of Port Moresby in Papua New Guinea. A detailed airborne magnetic and radiometric survey was carried out over the eastern portion of the island which contains the Umuna epithermal gold deposit.The purpose of the survey was to improve the understanding of surface and underlying geology and assist the regional mineral exploration of the area.In situ magnetic susceptibility measurements were taken within the survey area to determine the magnetic properties of the various Palaeocene-Miocene metasedimentary sequences and Miocene porphyritic felsic intrusives.The interpretation of the airborne magnetic data was constrained by susceptibility measurements, magnetic modelling and regional geological mapping. Computer processing included the use of reduction to the pole and pseudo gravimetric transforms.Variable density and type of vegetation cover on the island limited previous interpretations of the airborne radiometric data. The data was reprocessed using principal components analysis of the potassium and total count radiometric data.

Abstract:
A study of a traditional land use system was conducted at Nade, Fergusson Island, in Milne Bay Province, Papua New Guinea. An ethnobotanical inventory of useful and culturally significant plants, and a series of transects and vegetation profiles were used to identify, and map the distribution of, 15 different plant communities in the Nade landscape. Interviews were conducted with local gardeners about land use decision-making, land tenure, and ecological knowledge. The land use strategy practiced at Nade can be characterized as a polyphase agroforestry system. A spectrum of management techniques are used in the different phases, including the selecting, ignoring, transplanting and/or planting of wild, semi-domesticated, and domesticated tree species. A variety of subsistence products are available throughout the year, from the range of vegetation types. The distribution of successional phases in the landscape was found to depend on topography and soil conditions which vary within the subsistence territory of Nade. Overlying the environmentally determined pattern of the shifting mosaic are the social factors; land use decision-making based on the traditional system of susu land and plant tenure, labour-saving strategies, and agricultural tradition. The study provides baseline data for monitoring changes in the culturally modified landscapes of Fergusson Island. This in turn can be used to facilitate a land-use planning process with local people.

Full text
Abstract:
Simberi Island is an eroded Pliocene alkaline volcano, the oldest in the Pliocene to Holocene Tabar-Lihir-Tanga-Feni (TLTF) island arc. These islands are derived from partial melting of subduction-modified mantle at $>$60 km depth along extensional, pull-apart structures. Explosive volcanism has brought samples of the mantle wedge to the surface. Within these samples are sulphate-, carbonate-, hydrous-, alkali-rich aluminosilicate glasses which represent quenched slab-derived magmas (SCHARM). SCHARM reacts with mantle peridotite to create a vertically zoned mantle wedge consisting of phlogopite-clinopyroxenite at P $>$ 30 kbar and amphibole-clinopyroxenite at 21 to 30 kbar at 930-1080$\sp\circ$C. Metasomatism of the mantle wedge by SCHARM controls the mineralogical, chemical and isotopic composition of TLTF arc volcanics. The presence of sulphate within SCHARM indicates a high intrinsic oxygen fugacity of FMQ + 4. Oxidative metasomatism of the mantle wedge by SCHARM is responsible for high $\rm Fe\sb2O\sb3$/FeO ratios in the lavas, the early appearance of magnetite on the liquidus and the crystallization of a sulphate-bearing feldspathoidal mineral (ha uyne) in the TLTF lavas. Titanium depletion in the rocks of the TLTF arc is accounted for by the low initial solubility of Ti in SCHARM, coupled with the strong partitioning of Ti into phlogopite at high fo$\sb2.$ Enhanced solubility of sulphur in high fO$\sb2$ melts, caused destabilization of mantle sulfides and concomitant enrichment of chalcophile Au and Cu in volatile-rich, mantle-derived melts, and may be a significant factor in the development of volcanic-hosted Au-Cu deposits in the arc. Enrichments of large ion lithophile elements and rare-earth element in basanites and alkali basalts are also due to SCHARM contamination. Negative Ce and positive Eu anomalies in Simberi basalts are produced by partial melting of feldspathic minerals in subducted, seawater altered mid-ocean ridge basalt (MORB), at the basalt-eclogite transition zone in the mantle. Eutectic melting constraints indicate that SCHARM could be derived during the melting of scapolite, produced by prograde metamorphic reactions between MORB plagioclase and low temperature secondary minerals (calcite, gypsum) in the subducting slab. Metasomatic replacement of forsteritic olivine $\rm(\delta\sp O=5\perthous)$ by high $\rm\delta\sp O$ SCHARM produces $\sp $O-enriched sodian diopside and magnetite $\rm(\delta\sp O$ = 6.3-6.8$\perthous)$ in Simberi basanites. Isotopic disequilibrium exists because of the short 6 Ma) residence time of SCHARM in the mantle.

Full text
Abstract:
Ocean acidification is occurring in response to rapidly increasing concentrations of atmospheric CO2. Shallow-water hydrothermal vent systems have been proposed as natural laboratories for studying the effects of elevated pCO2 on benthic communities. Hydrothermal vents occur at depths of approximately 10m in Tutum Bay, Ambitle Island, Papua New Guinea; these vents are surrounded by a typical-appearing fringing coral-reef community. Groups of live specimens of seven species of reef-dwelling, larger benthic foraminifers, along with segments of calcareous green algae broken from live thalli, were collected from a reef location, placed in small mesh bags, and deployed for five days at six different sites along a gradient of temperature (29.6oC-59.3oC) and pH (5.9-8.1) with distance from a large hydrothermal vent in Tutum Bay. Foraminiferal taxa used in the experiment included Amphisorus hemprichii, a species with Mg-calcite porcelaneous shells, three species of Amphistegina that produce hyaline calcite shells, and three species with hyaline Mg-calcite shells (Heterostegina depressa and two Calcarina spp.). Several specimens of four of the seven foraminiferal species examined survived exposure to elevated temperatures of 59.3oC and low pH of 6.2 for five days, while at least one specimen of each of the seven species survived exposure to 39.9oC and pH 5.9. Examination of shells at 600-1000x magnification using scanning electron microscopy revealed fine-scale dissolution in specimens up to 30m from the vent. Results of this experiment, as well as previously reported observations from the study site, indicate that the calcifying reef-dwelling organisms examined can survive pH extremes that result in dissolution of their shells following death.

Mitchell, Peter Ashley. "Geology, hydrothermal alteration and geochemistry of the Iamalele (D'Entrecasteaux Islands, Papua New Guinea) and Wairakei (North Island, New Zealand) geothermal areas." Thesis, University of Canterbury. Geology, 1989. http://hdl.handle.net/10092/5561.

Full text
Abstract:
The geothermal system at Iamalele is hosted by a series of late Quaternary high-silica dacite to rhyolite ignimbrite, air-fall tuff and related volcaniclastic rocks. The ignimbrite flows are intercalated with calc-alkalic andesite and low-silica dacite lavas, some of which are high-Mg varieties. The Iamalele Volcanics may be related to caldera collapse and post-caldera volcanism. Geothermal activity occurs over 30 km2 of the Iamalele area. Chemical analyses of water from hot springs indicate that the near-surface reservoir is dominated by an acid-sulphate fluid, and that the deeper reservoir fluid probably has a significant seawater component. Analyses of rock and soil samples within the limits of geothermal activity identified several areas of above background values in Au, Hg, As and Sb. A diamond drill hole was completed to a depth of ~200m in one of these areas. Hydrothermal alteration identified in the drill core indicates that the upper 200 m of the geothermal reservoir is well-zoned and contains a trace element signature characteristic of high-level, epithermal precious metal deposits. With increasing depth mineral assemblages indicative of advanced argillic, intermediate argillic and potassic alteration were observed in the recovered core. The Wairakei geothermal system is hosted by a voluminous sequence of late Quaternary rhyolitic ignimbrite, air fall tuff and related volcaniclastic rocks intercalated with andesite to rhyolite lavas. The volcanic sequence was deposited during formation of the Maroa and Taupo caldera volcanoes, and geothermal activity is localized within a diffuse border zone between these two volcanic centres. The high-temperature reservoir at Wairakei is primarily restricted to porous pyroclastic rocks of the Waiora Formation. Geothermal activity is exposed over ~25 km2 of the Wairakei area. Chemical analyses of well discharge indicate that the fluid is a low salinity, low total sulphur, near-neutral pH chloride water with a local meteoric source. Temperature profiles for ~60% of the Wairakei wells were used to construct a c. 1950 view of the thermal zoning of the reservoir. When compared to the estimated preproduction isotherms, reconnaissance fluid inclusion homogenization temperatures indicated that the deeper portion of the reservoir had cooled by ~45ºC prior to production discharge. Hydrothermal rock alteration within the reservoir is systematically zoned and may be separated into four principal assemblages: propylitic, potassic, intermediate argillic and advanced argillic. Calcium zeolites, mainly wairakite, mordenite and laumontite, occur throughout the reservoir and, with the exception of laumontite, form an integral part of either the propylitic or potassic assemblage. Intermediate argillic alteration is widespread but is not strongly developed. The distribution of advanced argillic alteration is sporadic and restricted to depths less than 65 m. Below a depth of ~500 m potassic alteration commonly overprints propylitic alteration. The location of the "average" Wairakei fluid on several activity diagrams drawn for 100°, 200°, 250° and 300°C indicates that propylitic and potassic alteration probably formed in equilibrium with a hydrothermal fluid chemically equivalent to the modern reservoir fluid at temperatures between ~275° and ~210°C. Assays of drill samples indicate that trace amounts of gold (<0.04 g/t) and other metals permeate the reservoir. Samples of siliceous sinter collected from wellhead production equipment contain significant quantities of precious metals and also platinum group and base metals. Metal-rich scale from a back pressure plate (well 66) was analysed by optical microscopy and by electron microprobe analysis. The scale is composed of several discrete mineral phases which show a distinct paragenesis. Hydrothermal alteration and metallization identified within the reservoirs at Iamalele and Wairakei are similar to hydrothermal alteration and metallization identified within the epithermal precious metal deposits of Rawhide and Round Mountain (Nevada, U.S.A.). The major difference between these systems is the much greater abundance of gold and silver at Rawhide and Round Mountain. Conclusions drawn from these comparisons include: (1) within high-temperature active systems gold remains in solution or is dispersed at low grades; (2) boiling does not appear to be a viable means of producing a gold ore deposit within deep (>500 m) hydrothermal reservoirs and (3) the formation of a major precious metal ore deposit may require the superposition of a structural event on a waning geothermal system to initiate an extended period of fluid mixing. High-Mg lavas similar to ones identified at Iamalele occur elsewhere in the late Cenozoic arc-type volcanic associations of south-eastern Papua New Guinea. Detailed geochemical studies of these rocks have revealed the presence of relatively aphyric lavas which are high in MgO, Cr, and Ni and form an integral part of the arc-type association. The high concentrations of these elements relative to typical arc-related rocks are thought to reflect the chemical composition of the initial melt. High-Mg lavas occur in other volcanic arcs of Papua New Guinea as well as in several other circum-Pacific volcanic arcs, and it is likely that high-Mg lavas form a fundamental component of most, if not all, volcanic arcs.

Abstract:
Papua New Guinea lies just north of Australia (Fig. 1). It is a developing island nation, with 462,839 km of land area, a population of 3.9 million people, and vast natural resources (Compton’s Interactive Encyclopedia, 1996). It is the largest island in the Oceania region of the world, which also includes Fiji, the Solomon Islands and Vanuatu. Most of these islands share similar resources, and prudent development of the resources requires utilization of nondestructive evaluation (NDE). NDE provides the means for flaw detection and size assessment, as well as evaluation of material degradation such as corrosion and hydrogen attack. These are factors which affect the service life of components and systems. Being aware of the state of degradation of these components and systems will enable cost effective maintenance, and reduce costly and dangerous failures. Recognizing the need for NDE expertise, the Papua New Guinea University of Technology at Lae has initiated a Center for Nondestructive Evaluation. Once operational, the center should serve the entire Oceania region, and provide resources, trained students and expertise that will enable the growth of the NDE industry within that area. It is widely accepted that NDE adds value to a product or process, not just cost. The amount of value is directly related to the engineering education of the personnel making NDE decisions. The growth of the NDE industry in these South Pacific Islands will add to the economy, as well as aid in the further creation of a population of engineers who are well educated in NDE.

Abstract:
Because of the higher Au, Ag, and Cu contents, seafloor massive sulfides (SMS) have received much attention as future commercial mining targets by private companies and nations. One of them, Solwara 1 Project in Papua New Guinea (PNG), is scheduled to start the commercial mining operation from 2018. Because the mining site is inter-island area and almost no cost is necessary for the waste disposal in PNG, the economy of the mining is expected very well. In contrast with this, because all the SMS distribution sites in Japan locate outer ocean areas and the waste disposal cost on land in Japan is very expensive, the economy of SMS mining in Japan is quite negative. In order to overcome the problems, a self-standing riser with flexible link to the sea surface platform and a primary ore separation on the seafloor prior to the ore lift-up are proposed. The improved SMS mining concept named Japan’s model is examined.

Abstract:
Seafloor Massive Sulfides (SMS) including Au, Ag, Cu, Zn, and Pb exist in exclusive economic zones (EEZ) of the Pacific island countries. Some of SMS are interested in as immediate targets for commercial mining ventures. Little information, however, is available for the mining impacts on marine ecosystem, because no actual deep-sea mining operation is there in the world. In case of SMS, in addition, some of them accompany active hydrothermal vents beside the possible mining sites. High primary biomass production and dense ecosystem population on seafloor are found around the vent system. On the basis of physical, chemical, and biological baseline survey data, Nautilus Minerals submitted an environmental impact statement for the Solwara 1 Project to Papua New Guinea (PNG) Government. The other approach is the environmental impact assessment program for SMS mining driven by Japan. In contrast with PNG, the feature of Japan’s program is the step-by-step process for the assessment. The importance of the step-by-step process is introduced in detail.
