NEW ZEALAND OLIGOCENE LAND CRISIS: INTEGRATED MICROPALEONTOLOGY OF WAIKATO COAL MEASURES AND ASSOCIATED SEDIMENTS IN CENTRAL NORTH ISLAND, NEW ZEALAND A thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Earth Science at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand. Claire Louise Shepherd 2012 ABSTRACT The topic of complete inundation of the New Zealand landmass during the Oligocene is a contentious one, with some proponents arguing the possibility that Zealandia became completely submerged during this time, and others contesting the persistence of small islands. The outcome of this debate has significant implications for the way in which modern New Zealand flora and fauna have evolved. This research project addresses the topic from a geological point of view by analysing late Oligocene–early Miocene sediments in the Benneydale region, in order to establish the timing of marine transgression in this area. Samples from two cores drilled in the Mangapehi Coalfield were analysed for palynological and calcareous nannofossil content, and these data were used to determine the age and paleoenvironment of Waikato Coal Measures, Aotea Formation and Mahoenui Group. Additionally, data from 28 boreholes in the coalfield were utilized to construct a series of isopach maps to elucidate changes in the paleostructure through time. All data were combined to develop a series of paleogeographic maps illustrating the development of coal measures and associated sediments across the Benneydale region. -
PR4878- Biostratigraphy, Sr-Isotope Chronology and Chronostratigraphy-Te Kuiti Group.Pdf
PETROLEUM REPORT SERIES PR4878 Title Biostratigraphy, Sr isotope chronology and chronostratigraphy of the Late Eocene – earliest Miocene Te Kuiti Group, Waikato – King Country Basin, New Zealand Operator Author Peter J.J. Kamp, Anand R.P. Tripathi, Campbell S. Nelson and Austin J.W. Hendy Date 2014 Summary This report reviews and synthesises the biostratigraphy of the Te Kuiti Group based on existing sample data archived in the Fossil Record Electronic Database (FRED). Based on these faunal and floral data, New Zealand biostratigraphic stages for the Late Eocene to Early Miocene are assigned to the formations and members within the group. Analytical strontium (Sr) data and resulting numerical ages are reported here for 26 new macrofossil samples from the Te Kuiti Group, but they do not improve the accuracy of the biostratigraphy and the age information that can be derived from it. The identification of unconformity-bound sequences, the boundaries of which align with the formation contacts within the group, provide an important set of time planes within the group. The integration of the biostratigraphy and sequence stratigraphy produces a robust chronostratigraphy for the Te Kuiti Group. This report has been compiled from material submitted to the New Zealand Government under legislation or voluntarily by exploration companies.

Tracks can vary from easy walks to more strenuous exercise— the ones listed in this publication should be achievable by most people of average fitness. In some of the locations there are more challenging tracks that should only be attempted if you have the fitness/skills and are prepared for a longer day. The majority of walking tracks are developed and maintained by the Department of Conservation (DOC) but a number managed by other agencies are included as they provide a complementary experience. Many of these walks can be combined with other activities: Picnics are a great way for the family to enjoy the outdoors. For a picnic spot with a view, check out Mt Pirongia, Maungakawa Scenic Reserve or Te Toto Gorge. Camping spots suitable for families can be found in the Kauaeranga valley, at Kaniwhaniwha on Mt Pirongia, in Te Kauri Park and Jim Barnett Bush Reserve. Bring your togs for a freshwater dip in the Kauaeranga valley, the Kaniwhaniwha Stream or at Karakariki. For family cycling try the Nikau Walk on Mt Pirongia, Hakarimata Rail Trail or Waikato River Trails. -

Waikato & the King Country
© Lonely Planet Publications Pty Ltd 221 Waikato & the King Country If the colour green had a homeland this would be it. Verdant fields give way to rolling hills in the countryside around New Zealand’s mightiest river, the Waikato. Visitors from southern England might wonder why they bothered leaving home, especially in quaint towns like Cambridge where every effort has been made to replicate the ‘mother country’. It’s little wonder that Peter Jackson chose the Waikato as the bucolic Shire in his movie adaptation of Lord of the Rings. But this veneer of conspicuous Englishness only partly disguises another reality. Move over hobbits, this is Tainui country. This powerful coalition of related tribes joined with others to elect a king in the 1850s to resist the loss of their land and sovereignty. Although the fertile Waikato was taken from them by war, they retained control of the limestone crags and forests of what became known as the King Country to within a whisper of the 20th century. The back roads along the coast still contain tiny outposts of Maoridom, echoes of an earlier era. Today’s visitors can experience first-hand the area’s genteel/free-wheeling dichotomy. Adrenaline junkies will be drawn to the wild surf of Raglan or rough-and-tumble underground pursuits in the extraordinary Waitomo Caves, while others will warm to the more sedate delights of Te Aroha’s Edwardian thermal complex or Hamilton’s gardens. It’s the Waikato River that symbolises this best – in places idyllic lakes have been created by harnessing it to hydroelectric projects while elsewhere its mauri (life force) flows fast and free. -
Historic Overview - Ngaruawahia & District
WDC District Plan Review – Built Heritage Assessment Historic Overview - Ngaruawahia & District Ngaruawahia & District Ngaruawahia is the hub of a large area serving several smaller settlements, including Taupiri, Hopuhopu, Glen Massey, Te Kowhai, and Horotiu. The district’s villages do not have distinct boundaries and their environs merge with their rural setting. The histories of these places and the rural areas in-between have overall similarities but each was established for a distinct purpose during the 150 years since European governance was imposed. Only Ngaruawahia and Taupiri were intended from first survey to be ‘urban’ areas; Te Kowhai developed from a rural area with facilities added as the community required them; Glen Massey and Horotiu from particular industries requiring a workforce; and Hopuhopu, uniquely, from an Anglican Church mission grant that later provided a large open space handy to the Waikato River and North Island Main Trunk railway for acquisition by the government as a military training camp. The entire area was part of the land confiscated from Tainui after the Waikato War. Ngaruawahia and Taupiri were set aside for town settlements, but generally the rest was surveyed into parcels suitable for grants to militiamen or Maori claimants. Initially the Glen Massey area was developed in the late 19th century under three special settlement schemes. The Waikato and Waipa Rivers have determined the locations and, to some extent, the histories of Ngaruawahia, Taupiri, Hopuhopu and Te Kowhai. Ngaruawahia prospered from the river trade; so also to some extent did Taupiri as a port for rural areas to the east. The Great South Road and the North Island Main Trunk railway were pivotal for the development of Ngaruawahia, Taupiri, Horotiu, and, to a lesser extent, Hopuhopu. -

Geology of the Hamilton Region J
EARTH SCIENCE JOURNAL, Vol. 1, No. 1, 1967 GEOLOGY OF THE HAMILTON REGION J. C. Schofield New Zealand Geological Survey, Papatoetoe INTRODUCTION This account takes the form of a synopsis which closely follows that prepared for a bulletin entitled "Geology of the Ngaruawahia Subdivision" (Kear and Schofield, in press). Normally such repetition should be avoided but an exception is made in view of delays in publishing the bulletin and of the parochial nature of this first number of the Earth Science Journal. The area described is limited to three "one inch to one mile" sheets of the "Geological Map of New Zealand-1 :63,360" being produced by the New Zealand Geological Survey. One of these, N.65-Hamilton, is already available (Kear and Schofield, 1965) and of the other two, N.56-Ngarua wahia and N.52-Te Kauwhata, N.5'6 may be out by the time this paper is published. The area they cover stretches from Mt. Pirongia in the west to Cambridge in the east at its southern end, and from Mercer in the west to N gatea in the east, at its northern end. This region is separated from the Coromandel Range to the east by a rift valley known as the Hauraki Lowlands. Within the Hamilton region itself, Mesozoic rocks crop at· the surface in ranges along both its western and eastern margins. A central physiographic depression is divided by the Taupiri Range (Mesozoic rocks) into the Hamilton Lowlands in the south and the Lower Waikato Lowlands in the north. These depressions are filled with Cainozoic sediments of which only those of Quaternary age are exposed at the surface in the Hamilton Lowlands. -
