  • New Zealand Boar Lines
    History and Bloodlines 101 History and Bloodlines 101 By Kathy Petersen, Virginia KuneKunes New Zealand Boar Lines Te Whangi: The first Willowbank (WB) Te Whangi was registration number 189. His name was Mr. Magoo and he was a black boar with both wattles. He was purchased from J. Te Whangi, who lived around Waitomo for $400 in 1978. Mr. Magoo passed away in 1988. I have been unable to locate pictures of him for this article. Te Whangi is represented in New Zealand, the UK and a healthy number of boars here in the USA. Willowbank Te Kuiti: purchased from John Wilson who lived near Waitomo in 1978. Kelly, a magnificent boar, started this line. Kelly was NZ 189a. He was a cream with two wattles pictured below. Kelly sired the first Te Kuiti boar line However, in 1993, Tutaki Gary produced Te Kuiti V. I am not sure how the Tutaki line produced the Te Kuiti. I could find nothing futher on the Te Kuiti line since 1993. Tutaki line was produced from the Ru boar line. I do not see how Te Kuiti line could be present in the USA unless further evidence comes to light. Willowbank Ru: He is NZ 51. He was from the North Island from Ru Kotaha who lived near Dannevirke, but the kune was thought to have come from the Opotiki area. He was a Black and white boar with no wattles. The Ru lines were created by using Pirihini Bastion NZ 363 x Jacobs Sow NZ A20. The Ru lines are in New Zealand, the UK and here in the USA.

  • Integrated Micropaleontology of Waikato Coal Measures and Associated Sediments in Central North Island, New Zealand

The thesis may not be reproduced elsewhere without the permission of the Author. 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.

  • Waitomo Way December 2017.Indd 2 16/03/2018 2:26:53 PM
    Solid Waste Activity projects coming up Our main focus areas for the 2017/18 fi nancial year for the Solid Waste Activity are to upgrade of the road entrance and tip-head access road at Waitomo District Landfi ll and to carry out Health and Safety compliance work for the Landfi ll and District Transfer Stations. A Capital expenditure budget of $280,000 has been allocated in the Annual Plan to complete these projects. The main entrance is an asphalt road which is proving too weak for the size of the vehicles and loads that frequently use it. Roadworks are planned for the William Street entrance and will involve milling the existing pavement to construct a more durable concrete driveway. For a period of time access from William Street into the entrance will be down to single lane. The work will be carried out in three stages to minimise the inconvenience to our customers. Keeping the public and staff safe is the aim behind new barriers installed at the Te Kuiti Transfer Station. The drop off point is higher than the bins receiving the waste material. That makes it easier to deposit material, but Review of the Solid Waste Activity without barriers, there is a risk of people falling into the bins, according to WDC General Manager Infrastructure Services, Kobus du Toit. Residents have Management and Minimisation Plan raised their concerns about the fall risk through our annual survey. In April 2018 we will seek your feedback on the 2018-28 Consultation “The method of unloading refuse into skips from a drop height is being Document.
