Abstract:

New Guinea forms the northern margin of the Australian Plate which is now characterised by a zone crustal deformation and accreted terranes. The present day configuration is the result of global tectonics in the southwestern Pacific since the Triassic. The Papuan Fold Belt is located within Papua New Guinea, the eastern half of New Guinea, and comprises deformed basement, platformal and basinal Mesozoic and Tertiary sediments. Deformation within the fold belt commenced possibly as early as Middle to Late Miocene and is currently continuing. The structure of the western part of the Papuan Fold Belt is characterised by thin skinned thrusting and basement involved structures, the latter attributed to inversion of extensional faults active in the Tertiary and the Mesozoic. Inversion is thought to have post-dated the initiation of thin skinned thrusting by approximately 5 Ma. Continued basement shortening may be due to the current high convergence rate between the Australian and Pacific Plates. The Alice Anticline formed due to inversion of a Tertiary extensional fault system. Three-dimensional restoration of the Alice Anticline makes use of a series of balanced cross-sections and is based on a line length method. Paradoxically, this restoration reveals non-plane strain in the balanced cross-sections upon which it relies. However, the restoration also reveals and quantifies a component of rotation about vertical axes which would not be obvious by application of conventional methods of structural analysis. Two transfer zones associated with the original extensional geometry acted as obstructions to deformation and have effectively pinned contractional structures during their formation causing the rotations about vertical axes. A general fracture system is developed in rocks in the Alice Anticline area. This typically comprises two sets of conjugate shear fractures and a third set, interpreted as extensional, which is sub-nonnal to the acute bisector of the two conjugate sets. Unfolding of bedding using the three-dimensional restoration results in a symmetrical geometric relationship between the general fracture system and folds. The mechanical interpretation of fractures, their geometric relationships and the timing constraints on their formation are consistent with folding. The structure of the Ok Tedi mine area is complicated by the presence of approximately syn-tectonic intrusive bodies. The development of the Parrots Beak and Taranaki Thrusts as floor and roof thrusts respectively constitutes shortening estimates in the mine area which are consistent with those determined regionally. Striation analysis of rnesoscale faults from country rocks in the mine area reveals a reduced stress tensor compatible with the regional shortening direction. Reduced stress tensors determined for the Fubilan Monzonite Porphyry are related to emplacement processes and would be consistent with development of radial and concentric fracture sets.

Abstract:

<p> The calculated extension (~111 km) across the Woodlark rift is incompatible with the > 130 km needed to exhume the Metamorphic Core Complexes on shallow angle faults (< 30°) using N-S extension in the Woodlark Basin. High resolution bathymetry, seismicity, and seismic reflection data indicate that the Nubara Fault continues west of the Trobriand Trough, intersects the Woodlark spreading center, and forms the northern boundary of the Woodlark plate and the southern boundary of the Trobriand plate. The newly defined Trobriand plate, to the north of this boundary, has moved SW-NE along the right lateral Nubara Fault, creating SW-NE extension in the region bounded by the MCC's of the D'Entrecasteaux Islands and Moresby Seamount. Gravity and bathymetry data extracted along four transect lines were used to model the gravity and flexure across the Nubara Fault boundary. Differences exist in the elastic thickness between the northern and southern parts of the lines at the Metamorphic Core Complexes of Goodenough Island (Te_south = 5.7 x 103 m; Te_north = 6.1 x 103 m) and Fergusson Island (Te_south = 1.2 x 103 m; Te_north = 5.5 x 103 m). Differences in the elastic strength of the lithosphere also exist at Moresby Seamount (Te_south = 4.2 x 103 m; Te_north = 4.7 x 103 m) and Egum Atoll (Te_south =7.5 x 103 m; Te_north = 1.3 x 104 m). The differences between the northern and southern parts of each transect line imply an east-west boundary that is interpreted to be the Nubara Fault. The opening of the Woodlark Basin resulted in the rotation of the Papuan Peninsula and the Woodlark Rise, strike slip motion between the Solomon Sea and the Woodlark Basin at the Nubara Fault, and the formation of the PAC-SOL-WLK; SOL-WLK-TRB triple junctions. The intersection of the Woodlark Spreading Center with the Nubara Fault added the AUS-WLK-TRB triple junction and established the Nubara Fault as the northern boundary of the Woodlark plate.</p>

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.

Abstract:

A sequence stratigraphic study was conducted on the Mendi and Darai Limestone Megasequences in the foreland area of the Papuan Basin in Papuan New Guinea. It involved the integrated use of seismic, wireline log, well core and cuttings, strontium isotope age and biostratigraphic data. This study enhanced the understanding of the structure, stratigraphy and depositional architecture of the limestones, and the morphology of the basin at the time of deposition. The results of the study were integrated with published geological and tectonic models for the Papuan Basin to develop a consistent and coherent model for the depositional history of the limestones. Eleven third-order sequences were delineated within the Mendi and Darai Limestone Megasequences. Eight depositional facies were interpreted across these sequences, namely deep-shelf, shallow-shelf, backreef, reef, shoal, forereef, basin margin and submarine fan facies. Each facies was differentiated according to seismic character and geometry, well core and cuttings descriptions, and its position in the depositional framework of the sequence. Deposition of the Mendi Limestone Megasequence commenced in the Eocene in response to thermal subsidence and eustatic sea-level rise. Sedimentation comprised open-marine, shallow-water, shelfal carbonates. During the middle of the Oligocene, the carbonate shelf was exposed and eroded in response to the collision of the Australian and Pacific Plates, or a major global eustatic sea-level fall. Sedimentation recommenced in the Late Oligocene, however, in response to renewed extensional faulting and subsidence associated with back-arc extension. This marked the onset of deposition of the Darai Limestone Megasequence in the study area. The KFZ, OFZ and Darai Fault were reactivated during this time, resulting in the oblique opening of the Omati Trough. Sedimentation was initially restricted to the Omati Trough and comprised deep and shallow-marine shelfal carbonates. By the Early Miocene, however, movement on the faults had ceased and an extensive carbonate platform had developed across the Gulf of Papua. Carbonate reef growth commenced along topographic highs associated with the KFZ, and led to the establishment of a rimmed carbonate shelf margin. Shallow to locally deeper-marine, shelfal carbonates were deposited on this shelf, and forereef, submarine fan and basin margin carbonates were deposited basinward of the shelf margin. The Uramu High and parts of the Pasca High became submerged during this time and provided sites for pinnacle reef development. During the middle of the Early Miocene, a major global eustatic sea-level fall or flexure of the Papuan Basin associated with Early Miocene ophiolite obduction subaerially exposed the carbonate shelf. This resulted in submarine erosion of the forereef and basin margin sediments. Towards the end of the Early Miocene, however, sedimentation recommenced. Shallow-marine, undifferentiated wackestones and packstones were deposited on the shelf; forereef, submarine fan and basin margin sediments were deposited basinward of the shelf margin; and reef growth recommenced along the shelf margin and on the Pasca and Uramu Highs. By the end of the Early Miocene, however, the pinnacle reef on the Pasca High had drowned. During the middle of the Middle Miocene, subtle inversion associated with ophiolite obduction subaerially exposed the carbonate shelf, and resulted in submarine erosion of the forereef and basin margin sediments. Sedimentation recommenced towards the end of the Middle Miocene, however, in response to eustatic sea-level rise and flexure of the crust associated with foreland basin development. Shallow marine, undifferentiated wackestones, packstones and grainstones were deposited on the shelf; carbonate shoals were deposited along the shelf margin; and forereef, submarine fan and basin margin carbonates were deposited basinward of the shelf margin. Carbonate production rapidly outpaced accommodation space on the shelf during this time, resulting in highstand shedding and the development of a large prograding submarine fan complex basinward of the shelf margin. By the Late Miocene, carbonate deposition had ceased across the majority of the study area in response to a major global eustatic sea-level fall or inversion associated with terrain accreation events along the northern Papuan margin. Minor carbonate deposition continued on parts of the Uramu High, however, until the middle of the Late Miocene. During the latest Miocene, clastic sediments prograded across the carbonate shelf, infilling parts of the foreland basin. Plio-Pleistocene compression resulted in inversion and erosion of the sedimentary package in the northwestern part of the study area. In the southeastern part of the Papuan Basin, however, clastic sedimentation continued to the present day.

Abstract:

The Toro Formation of the Papuan Basin is the older diachronous fades correlative of the upper part of the Gilbert River Formation of the Carpentaria and Laura Basins. In the Carpentaria Basin the upper Gilbert River Formation is composed of the Coffin Hill Member which occurs in the southern part of the basin, and the Gleanie and Briscoe Members which occur in the Olive River area within the northern part of the basin. The Toro Formation is of Early Berriasian to Early Kimmeridgian age, and the Gilbert River Formation is of Late Barremian to Late Tithonian age. Surface sedimentologic data and subsurface core and wireline log interpretations are supportive of a revised Toro Formation to incorporate all shallow marine reservoir quality sandstones. A subdivision of the Toro Formation into an upper and a lower member is proposed, based on the amount of sandstones. The upper member is composed dominantly of sandstones and minor siltstones and mudstones. The lower member is highly variable and consists of sandstones, siltstones and mudstones. Sandstones in both the Toro Formation and the Gilbert River Formation are composed predominantly of plutonic monocrystalline quartz (85-95%), and minor feldspars and muscovite mica (<15%). They are classified as quartz arenites and quartz wackes based on the predominant amount of quartz and minor feldspar, and variable matrix content. The detrital constituents of quartz, feldspar and mica indicate that the provenance was a mixed terrain of intrusive igneous and high grade gneissic metamorphic rocks. Fades analysis of the Toro Formation indicates a total of twelve subfades that were deposited in three major environments within a shallow marine wave dominated prograding barrier bar to beach environment: (1) Lower shoreface, (2) Middle shoreface, and (3) Upper shoreface-beach. From the lower shoreface toward the upper shoreface to beach fades, there is an increase in grain-size, decrease in the intensity of burrowing activity, and improvement in reservoir quality. Fades analysis of the Gilbert River Formation indicates a total of six subfades that were deposited in five subenvironments within a fluvio-deltaic to shallow marine environment: (1) Fluvial channel/point-bar, (2) Fluvial flood plain, (3) Distributary channel/mouth bar, (4) Pro-delta, and (5) Barrier bar to beach. The Gilbert River Formation fades generally becomes more marine in ascending stratigraphic order. Reservoir quality sandstones in the Toro Formation are present in the barrier bar to beach fades. Optimum areas where reservoir sandstones in the upper member may have accumulated are the northern and northeastern margins of the basin. Potential areas where the lower member reservoir sandstones may have accumulated are the northeastern and southeastern margins of the basin. Reservoir quality sandstones in the Gilbert River Formation are present in the fluvial channel/point-bar fades, delta front distributary mouth bar fades, and the prograding barrier bar to beach fades.

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:

This study attempts to clarify the tense systems in Madang Province, Papua New Guinea; particularly, the past tense and habitual past forms in the sample three languages in the area: Amele, Waskia, and Kobon. This study thus investigates past tense and habitual features, and discusses how the people in the area interpret past events. The study then discusses how these people map their temporal frames in their grammars (“anthropology of time”, Gell 1996). To aid analysis, I collected data through observing descriptive grammars and fieldwork, finding that Amele exhibits three types of past tense and habitual tense forms, as in (1). Kobon has two distinct simple and remote past tenses, as in (2). Kobon has habitual aspect with the help of the verb “to be.” Waskia, in contrast, has a distinction between realis and irrealis meanings, and the realis forms can indicate past and habitual meanings (two habitual forms: one is include in realis, another is with the help of the verb “stay”), as shown in (3). (1) Amele: Today’s past: Ija hu-ga. “I came (today).” Yesterday’s past: Ija hu-gan. “I came (yesterday).” Remote past: Ija ho-om. “I came (before yesterday).” Habitual past (by adding the habitual form “l”): Ija ho-lig. “I used to come.” (2) Kobon (Davies 1989): Simple past: Yad au-ɨn. “I have come.” Remote past: Nöŋ-be. “You saw” Habitual aspect (by using the verb “mid” to be): Yad nel nipe pu-mid-in. “I used to break his firewood.” (3) Waskia (Ross and Paol 1978): Realis: Ane ikelako yu naem. “I drank some water yesterday.” (simple past) Realis: Ane girako yu no-kisam “In the past I used to drink water” (habitual past) Habitual (by using the verb “bager“ (stay)): Ane girako yu nala bager-em. “In the past I used to drink water.“ Finally, this study claims that Amele and Kobon have remoteness distinctions; near and remote past distinctions, but there is no such a distinction in Waskia. The observed habitual usages are different to each other. Nevertheless, the three languages have a grammatical viewpoint of habitual past mapping.

Abstract:

Biostratigraphic data from exploration wells in Papua, West Papua of Indonesia, Papua New Guinea and Australia were reviewed, revised and updated using modern stratigraphic interpretations. Revised stratigraphic interpretations were combined with zircon U-Pb geochronologic data to produce new tectonic reconstructions of the Indonesian provinces of West Papua and Papua. Zircon U-Pb geochronologic data used in this study include new results from the Papuan Peninsula, combined with existing datasets from West Papua, Papua New Guinea, eastern Australia and New Caledonia. Supplementary geochronologic data were used to provide independent validation of the biostratigraphic data. Findings from a compilation of biostratigraphic and zircon age data provide a framework to produce new tectonic models for the origin of New Guinea’s terranes. Two hypotheses are presented to explain observations from the biostratigraphic and geochronologic data. The ‘Allochthonous Terrane’ Model suggests that many of the terranes are allochthonous in nature and may have been derived from eastern Australia. The ‘Extended Rift’ Model suggests that the New Guinea Terranes may have been separated from north-eastern Australia by an elongate rift system far more extensive than previously described. These new tectonic models are essential for our geological understanding of the regional and can be used to drive successful petroleum exploration in this frontier area.

Abstract:

Amele is one of the Trans-New Guinea languages spoken in Papua New Guinea. Foley (2000) described that the Trans-New Guinea languages have complicated verbal morphology, including Amele. This study examines negation in Amele, and attempts to clarify its morphological behaviors.
