Abstract:
Geochemical studies, reinterpretation of early seismic data and information from new seismic surveys are extending the concept of economic basement for hydrocarbons in several New Zealand basins. Older Cretaceous and even Jurassic and Triassic rocks, previously considered to be 'basement' by petroleum explorationists, may have significance as petroleum prospects.Triassic–Jurassic Murihiku Supergroup sedimentary sequences are up to 15 km thick, and the upper parts are still of low metamorphic rank. Vitrinite reflectances and Hydrogen Indexes from Murihiku Supergroup coals sampled from outcrop and drillholes indicate good oil potential, and, together with rock porosity of up to 18%, suggest that the Murihiku Supergroup may be prospective.In the offshore Canterbury Basin, reinterpretation of seismic data has shown there is probably a thick sedimentary section below what was previously mapped as the regional basement horizon. This seismic interval can be related to a similar section developed in the adjacent Great South Basin where a mid-Cretaceous, rift- fill section of hydrocarbon-bearing rocks, drilled in the Kawau–1 well had good source and reservoir potential.In the onshore Canterbury Basin, a recent vibroseis survey has revealed apparent sedimentary section extending down to more than 4,000 m which might also be the expression of a mid-Cretaceous rift-fill section, similar to that in the nearby Great South Basin and in the formerly adjacent Taranaki Basin, or possibly the older Murihiku Supergroup. This potential for a mature oil and gas source section provides the basis for further exploration of the area.There are similar prospective sequences in several other New Zealand basins.

Abstract:
Early to Middle Triassic marine successions are remarkably lacking in the Southern Hemisphere. It would seem that the best developed and most fossiliferous sequences are preserved in New Zealand. To a lesser extent, successions of Early to Middle Triassic age are known from New Caledonia, New Guinea, the Gympie Basin of Eastern Australia, offshore Western Australia, and western South America (in particular Chile).Anisian marine faunas were first collected in New Zealand (Etalian local stage) in the 1940s but it was not until 1953 that their age significance was correctly recognised by Marwick. This was later confirmed by Kummel. Since then an unpublished doctoral study has been completed on the paleontology and biostratigraphy of the Anisian succession within the Murihiku terrane of Southland, South Island, New Zealand. A conclusion of this study, based on ammonoid correlations, was that the cosmopolitan halobiid bivalve Daonella appears earlier in New Zealand than it does in North America.Recent investigations post-date the advent of the tectonostratigraphic terrane concept and suggest that an Anisian fossil record is preserved in at least three terranes in New Zealand (Murihiku, Dun Mountain - Maitai and Torlesse terranes), and two terranes in New Caledonia (probably correlatives of the Murihiku and Torlesse terranes of New Zealand). Analysis of the faunal content of these various terranes suggests that although there are some facies differences (litho and bio), there is little obvious basis for recognition of distinct paleobiogeographic provenance.A corollary to this research on Anisian faunas is the recognition that the New Zealand ammonoid faunas previously considered to be Early Triassic (Malakovian local stage; Murihiku terrane) by Kummel are almost certainly Anisian. However, this does not imply that there isn't an Early Triassic sedimentary record. Significant thicknesses of apparently unfossiliferous sequence are present in each of the relevant terranes. Two isolated Early Triassic ammonoid faunas are now known from elsewhere in New Zealand but from tectonically complex settings in Brook Street (?) and Dun Mountain - Maitai terranes.

Abstract:
AbstractDetrital zircon U–Pb ages are reported for 14 sandstones of mainly Cretaceous age from the Northland Allochthon, Houhora Complex and Waipapa Terrane of northern North Island, New Zealand. Results from the Waipapa Terrane samples, selected from sequences in the Bay of Plenty, Coromandel Peninsula and Great Barrier Island, show that deposition continued into late Early Cretaceous time and, as in the Torlesse Composite Terrane, finally waned at c. 110–114 Ma. Upper Lower Cretaceous and Upper Cretaceous sedimentary successions in the Houhora Complex and Northland Allochthon have dominant sediment sources derived from local, contemporary volcanism, with a minor older contribution from the Murihiku Terrane to the west. As in eastern North Island, upper Upper Cretaceous sandstones lack major Albian magmatic components and their sources are solely in the Murihiku Terrane, and possibly the Western Province. We propose a Cretaceous palaeogeographic model that invokes a recently extinct orogen and a partially submerged continental borderland, dissected by rivers supplying submarine fans.

Abstract:
Most scholars of the subject consider that a pre-Columbian transpacific transfer accounts for the historical role of American sweet potato Ipomoea batatas as the kūmara staple of Indigenous New Zealand/Aotearoa Māori in cooler southwestern Polynesia. Archaeologists have recorded evidence of ancient Polynesian I. batatas cultivation from warmer parts of generally temperate-climate Aotearoa, while assuming that the archipelago’s traditional Murihiku region in southern South Island/Te Waipounamu was too cold to grow and store live Polynesian crops, including relatively hardy kūmara. However, archaeological pits in the form of seasonal Māori kūmara stores (rua kūmara) have been discovered unexpectedly at Pūrākaunui on eastern Murihuku’s Otago coast, over 200 km south of the current Polynesian limit of record for premodern I. batatas production. Secure pit deposits that incorporate starch granules with I. batatas characteristics are radiocarbon-dated within the decadal range 1430–1460 CE at 95% probability in a Bayesian age model, about 150 years after Polynesians first settled Te Waipounamu. These archaeological data become relevant to a body of Māori oral history accounts and traditional knowledge (mātauranga) concerning southern kūmara, incorporating names, memories, landscape features and seemingly enigmatic references to an ancient Murihiku crop presence. Selected components of this lore are interpreted through comparative exegesis for correlation with archaeological science results in testable models of change. In a transfer and adaptation model, crop stores if not seasonal production technologies also were introduced from a warmer, agricultural Aotearoa region into dune microclimates of 15th-century coastal Otago to mitigate megafaunal loss, and perhaps to support Polynesia’s southernmost residential chiefdom in its earliest phase. A crop loss model proposes that cooler seasonal temperatures of the post-1450 Little Ice Age and (or) political change constrained kūmara supply and storage options in Murihiku. The loss model allows for the disappearance of kūmara largely, but not entirely, as a traditional Otago crop presence in Māori social memory.

Abstract:
U–Pb detrital zircon ages (LAM-ICPMS) are reported for 20 greywackes and sandstones from seven major tectono-stratigraphic terranes of the Eastern Province of New Zealand (Cretaceous to Carboniferous) to constrain sediment provenances. Samples are mainly from three time horizons: Late Permian, Late Triassic and Late Jurassic. Age datasets are analysed as percentages in geological intervals, and in histogram and cumulative probability diagrams. The latter discriminate significant zircon age components in terms of terrane, sample stratigraphic age, component age, precision and percentage (of total set). Zircon age distributions from all samples have persistent, large Triassic–Permian, and very few Devonian–Silurian, populations, features which exclude a sediment provenance from the early Palaeozoic, Lachlan Fold Belt of southeast Australia or continuations in New Zealand and Antarctica. In the accretionary terranes, significant Palaeozoic (and Precambrian) zircon age populations are present in Torlesse and Waipapa terranes, and variably in Caples terrane. In the fore-arc and back-arc terranes, a unimodal character persists in Murihiku and Brook Street terranes, while Dun Mountain–Maitai terrane is more variable, and with Caples terrane, displays a hybrid character. Required extensive Triassic–Permian zircon sources can only be found within the New England Fold Belt and Hodgkinson Province of northeast Australia, and southward continuations to Dampier Ridge, Lord Howe Rise and West Norfolk Ridge (Tasman Sea). Small but significant Palaeozoic (and Precambrian) age components in the accretionary terranes (plus Dun Mountain–Maitai terrane), have sources in hinterlands of the New England Fold Belt, in particular to mid-Palaeozoic granite complexes in NE Queensland, and Carboniferous granite complexes in NE New South Wales. Major and minor components place sources (1) for the older Torlesse (Rakaia) terrane, in NE Queensland, and (2) for Waipapa terrane, in NE New South Wales, with Dun Mountain–Maitai and Caples terrane sources more inshore and offshore, respectively. In Early Jurassic–Late Cretaceous, Torlesse (Pahau) and Waipapa terranes, there is less continental influence, and more isolated, offshore volcanic arc sources are suggested. There is local input of plutonic rock detritus into Pahau depocentres from the Median Batholith in New Zealand, or its northward continuation on Lord Howe Rise. Excepting Murihiku and Brook Street terranes, all others are suspect terranes, with depocentres close to the contemporary Gondwanaland margin in NE Australia, and subsequent margin-parallel, tectonic transport to their present New Zealand position. This is highlighted by a slight southeastward migration of terrane depocentres with time. Murihiku and Brook Street terrane sources are more remote from continental influences and represent isolated offshore volcanic depocentres, perhaps in their present New Zealand position.

Abstract:
Arc-flank volcaniclastic sedimentation in the Murihiku Terrane of New Zealand lasted about 120 million years from Late Permian to Early Cretaceous time. Despite the effects of pervasive zeolite-facies alteration, whole-rock geochemical parameters for sandstones, siltstones and tuffs record changes in source-rock composition, both in time and along the length of the depositional basin. Sandstones are considered to give a more reliable indication of the state of evolution of the source volcanic arc than do the siltstones. The siltstones commonly contain detrital white mica flakes that are generally lacking in the sandstones, and are possibly of distal continental origin. Some also contain very fine felsic ash particles. Average abundances and normalized multi-element diagrams are used to estimate proportions of three model end-member source constituents, average upper-continental crust (UCC), high-K rhyolite (RHY) and basaltic andesite (AND). Sandstone provenance for the Southland Syncline sector changed from a predominantly basaltic-andesite source in Late Permian to early Middle Triassic time, for example, UCC:RHY:AND = 0:17:83 in the Early to early Middle Triassic, to highly felsic in the Middle to Late Triassic, reaching UCC:RHY:AND = 2:74:24 in the Late Triassic Oretian Stage. A UCC component became increasing significant from latest Triassic upward and the proportion of mafic to felsic volcanism increased again, with UCC:RHY:AND = 15:30:35 in the Middle Jurassic Temaikan Stage. Mix modelling suggests that along-arc source proportions varied, with greater mafic and upper continental crust contributions in the northern Kawhia segment than in the Southland segment. These patterns may be explained by deposition at an oceanic Aleutian-type arc margin, with transition to a continental oceanic arc character induced either by arc evolution and dissection, forearc sliver translation, or underplating of rafted microcontinental fragments.

Abstract:
The process of naming places involves a contested identity politics of people and place. Place-names are part of the social construction of space and the symbolic construction of meanings about place. Accordingly, we argue that the names applied to places in Aotearoa assist in the construction of the symbolic and material orders that legitimate the dominance of a hegemonic Pakeha masculinism. Attempts to rename (and in doing so, reclaim) places are implicated in the discursive politics of people and place. The contestation of place-names in Otago/Murihiku, one of the southernmost regions of New Zealand, is examined. We present a discursive analysis of submissions made to the New Zealand Geographic Board in 1989–90 concerning a proposed reinstatement of Maori names in the area. In interpreting objections to renaming we suggest these objections articulated with and through a number of ‘commonsense’ notions about gender, ‘race’, culture, and nation which discursively (re)produced a hegemonic Pakeha masculinism in New Zealand.

Abstract:
A paradigm of New Zealand petroleum geology was that the oldest source rocks known in the region were of Cretaceous age, so any older sedimentary rocks were considered to be economic basement. Two major projects have revealed that this is not universally the case and that a Jurassic petroleum system should now be considered.Firstly, the Astrolabe 2D speculative survey, acquired by TGS-NOPEC in 2001, has revealed that a significant section underlies the traditional Cretaceous petroleum systems. Secondly, the Wakanui–1 well, drilled by Conoco, Inpex and Todd in 1999, which has recently become open-file, penetrated a Mid-Jurassic coal measure sequence.Jurassic rocks, including coal measure units, are known onshore in New Zealand, They are part of the Murihiku Supergroup, one of the basement terranes comprising the Permian to Cretaceous volcanic arc that forms the basement rocks of the present New Zealand landmass. Wherever they have been seen in outcrop, these rocks generally record low grade metamorphism and have been discounted as petroleum source rocks. Where rocks of the same age were deposited distal to the volcanic arc (and the effects of heat and pressure), however, they may form components of an effective petroleum system.The New Caledonia Basin, extending more than 2,000 km from Taranaki to New Caledonia, may have been the site of a Mesozoic back-arc basin. Jurassic coal measure successions and their equivalent marine units may be locally, or regionally important as source rocks. Implications of a Jurassic petroleum system for prospectivity of the region are investigated.

Abstract:
The offshore Northland Basin is a major sedimentary accumulation lying to the west of the Northland Peninsula of New Zealand. It merges with the Taranaki Basin in the south and its deeper units are separated from Deepwater Taranaki by a buried extension of the West Norfolk Ridge. Sedimentary thicknesses increase to the northwest and the Northland Basin may extend into Reinga. Its total area is at least 65,000 km2 and if the Reinga Basin is included, it may be up to 100,000 km2. As in Taranaki, petroleum systems of the Northland Basin were thought to include Cretaceous to Recent sedimentary rocks. Waka Nui–1 was drilled in 1999 and penetrated no Cretaceous sediments, but instead drilled unmetamorphosed Middle Jurassic coal measures. Economic basement may be older meta-sediments of the Murihiku Supergroup. Thick successions onlap the dipping Jurassic unit and a representative Cretaceous succession is likely to be present in the basin. Potential source rocks known to be present include the Middle Jurassic coal measures of Waka Nui–1 and the Waipawa Formation black shale. Inferred source rocks include Late Jurassic coaly rocks of the Huriwai Beds, the Early Cretaceous Taniwha Formation coaly sediments, possible Late Cretaceous coaly units and lean but thick Late Cretaceous and Paleogene marine shales. Below the voluminous Miocene volcanoes of the Northland arc, the eastern margin of the basin is dominated by a sedimentary wedge that thickens to more than two seconds two-way travel time (TWT), or at least 3,000 m, at its eastern margin and appears to have been thrust to the southwest. This is interpreted to be a Mesozoic equivalent of the Taranaki Fault, a back-thrust to subduction along the Gondwana Margin. The ages of sedimentary units in the wedge are unknown but are thought to include a basal Jurassic succession, which dips generally to the east and is truncated by an erosional unconformity. A southwestwards-prograding succession overlies the unconformity and its top surface forms a paleoslope onlapped by sediments of Late Cretaceous to Neogene ages. The upper succession in the wedge may be of Early Cretaceous age—perhaps the equivalent of the Taniwha Formation or the basal succession in Waimamaku–2. The main part of the basin was rifted to form a series of horst and graben features. The age of initial rifting is poorly constrained, but the structural trend is northwest–southeast or parallel to the Early Cretaceous rifting of Deepwater Taranaki and with the Mesozoic Gondwana margin. Thick successions overlie source units which are likely to be buried deeply enough to expel oil and gas, and more than 70 slicks have been identified on satellite SAR data suggesting an active petroleum system. Numerous structural and stratigraphic traps are present and the potential of the Northland Basin is thought to be high.

Abstract:
The institution of mutton-birding is as old as the hill, and from time immemorial it has been the right of the Murihiku natives to gather [titi/muttonbirds]... it is one of the new natural advantages yet entirely in their hands, and they strongly resent the intrusion of pakehas into it.Nga-Ti-Ngaro.Pakehas, married to Natives so privileged, also have a legal right to participate in these [titi harvesting] activities.L.E.
