Quaternary volcanism, tephras, and tephra-derived soils in New Zealand: an introductory review David J. Lowe Department of Earth and Ocean Sciences, University of Waikato, Hamilton Introduction This two-part article comprises brief introductions to (1) volcanism and its products in general and to the broad pattern of Quaternary volcanism and tephrostratigraphy in North Island, and (2) the ensuing tephra-derived soils of North Island. Part 1 derives mainly from Smith et al. (2006), Leonard et al. (2007), and Lowe (2008a). Other useful reviews include those of Neall (2001), Graham (2008: Chapter 7), Wilson et al. (2009), and Cole et al. (2010). Recent reviews on tephras include Shane (2000), Alloway et al. (2007), Lowe (2008b, 2011), and Lowe et al. (2008a, 2008b). A history of tephra studies in New Zealand was reported by Lowe (1990). Part 2 describes the distribution and character of the main tephra-derived soils, these being Entisols and Andisols (mostly Vitrands and Udands) and Ultisols (Lowe and Palmer, 2005). Books on these and other soils in New Zealand include NZ Soil Bureau (1968), Gibbs (1980), McLaren and Cameron (1996), Cornforth (1998), and Molloy and Christie (1998). -

Kawerau Geothermal System Management Plan
KAWERAU GEOTHERMAL SYSTEM MANAGEMENT PLAN February 2018 Prepared in Collaboration with Executive Summary The Kawerau Geothermal System is located to the north-east of Kawerau within the Bay of Plenty Region, and partially underlies the township of Kawerau. It has been substantially developed for industrial purposes pursuant to resource consents granted by the Bay of Plenty Regional Council (BOPRC) under the Resource Management Act 1991 (RMA). This includes geothermal energy being used for electricity generation, industrial processes (direct heat) and cultural purposes. Bay of Plenty Regional Council has functions under Section 30 of the RMA for the management of geothermal resources. The Bay of Plenty Regional Policy Statement (RPS) requires the preparation of a System Management Plan (SMP) for the Kawerau Geothermal System as a key part of the way in which BOPRC intends to manage the Kawerau Geothermal System. This SMP has been prepared in collaboration with the four consent holders authorised to take more than 1,000 tonnes per day of geothermal fluid from the Kawerau Geothermal System, being: Mercury NZ Limited, Ngāti Tūwharetoa Geothermal Assets Limited, Geothermal Developments Ltd, and Te Ahi O Māui Partnership. Engagement has also been undertaken with tangata whenua and interested and potentially affected parties, including industrial operators using the geothermal resource. The purpose of this SMP is to ensure that the Kawerau Geothermal System is managed in a sustainable manner in accordance with the requirements of the RMA and the relevant policy and planning documents prepared under the RMA. The content anticipated in an SMP is set out in Policy GR7B of the RPS and includes objectives for its overall management and strategies to achieve the objectives The SMP is a non-statutory document and will be periodically reviewed and updated to ensure that it remains relevant and fit for purpose. -
Kawerau AS and Other Blocks
r RECEIVED CLADMIN lq '4. I ~ .,.... r<)l..-- ,.....,..-._ ................ 1 Kawerau AS and other blocks by Sharyn Green This report was commissioned by the Waitangi Tribunal for the claim by JH Fox for Tuwharetoa Te Atua Reretahi Trust Board relating to Te Wai U 0 Tuwharetoa (Wai 21) Any conclusions drawn or opinions expressed are those of the author Introduction My name is Sharyn Green (N gati Maniapoto) and I am employed as a researcher for the Waitangi Tribunal. I have produced research reports for the Waitangi Tribunal on Wai 247, 248, and 238. I have a law degree from the University of Otago in Dunedin and I am an admitted barrister and solicitor of the court as of October 1992. I completed some Maori studies papers while at the University of Otago and tutored Maori language for the department for three years. I was commissioned by the tribunal to produce this report in May 1992. This report concerns an ancillary claim to Wai 62. Wai 62 was lodged with the Waitangi Tribunal by John Henry Fox, Beverly Adlam, and William Savage of the iwi Tuwharetoa ki Kawerau, in 1988. That claim concerns lands confiscated by the Crown pursuant to legislation in the 1860s following the New Zealand wars.1 This ancillary claim to Wai 62 concerns Tasman Pulp and Paper Mill Ltd (Tasman) creating part of an effluent treatment system on land where the rangatira Tuwharetoa had a pa, and features other sites considered significant by Ngati Tuwharetoa. This report is confined to discussing the establishment of this system. -
Aspects of the Chronology, Structure and Thermal History of the Kawerau Geothermal Field
Aspects of the Chronology, Structure and Thermal History of the Kawerau Geothermal Field By Sarah Dawn Milicich A thesis submitted to Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Geology Victoria University of Wellington School of Geography, Environment and Earth Sciences Wellington, New Zealand 2013 ii „It is what it is‟ id est quod est J.L. Wooden (pers. comm. 2010) iii iv ABSTRACT The development and management of high-temperature geothermal resources for electrical power generation requires accurate knowledge of the local geological conditions, particularly where they impact on the hydrology of the resource. This study is an integrated programme of work designed to develop new perspectives on the geological and structural framework of the Kawerau geothermal resource as a sound basis for field management. Although the geological approaches and techniques utilised in this study have previously been used, their application to an integrated study of a geothermal system in New Zealand has not been previously undertaken. Correlating volcanic and sedimentary stratigraphy in geothermal areas in New Zealand can be challenging due to similarities in lithology and the destruction of distinctive chemical, mineralogical and textural characteristic by hydrothermal alteration. A means to overcoming these issues is to utilise dating to correlate the stratigraphy. Zircons are resistant to the effects of typical hydrothermal conditions and were dated using SIMS techniques (SHRIMP-RG) to retrieve U–Pb ages on zircons. These age data were then used to correlate units across the field, in part aided by correlations to material that had previously been dated from fresh rock by 40Ar/39Ar techniques, and used to redefine the stratigraphic framework for the area.
