Geochemistry of Syntectonic Carbonate Veins Within Late Cretaceous Turbidites, Hikurangi Margin (New Zealand): Implications for a Mid‐Oligocene Age of Subduction Initiation

Geochemistry of Syntectonic Carbonate Veins Within Late Cretaceous Turbidites, Hikurangi Margin (New Zealand): Implications for a Mid‐Oligocene Age of Subduction Initiation

Abstract We document the geochemistry of calcite veins in the Late Cretaceous Tikihore Formation (Raukumara Peninsula, New Zealand) to characterize their fluid composition and source and to help establish the age of subduction initiation at the Hikurangi margin of the Australia‐Pacific plate boundar...
