  • 7. Geological potential of the prospect area

    7.1 Geological setting

    a) Regional Geological setting

    the Solomon island and new guinea are part of a continue mal island arc system formed

    by the collision of the north moving Australia indie plate with the south west moving

    Pacific Plate. Subduction of the Pacific Plate beneath the Australia India Plate resulted

    in partial melting of the Pacific Plate and diapiric rise of magma domes into the Australia

    India Plate. Initial subduction occurred in a south westerly direction and this process

    may have been initiated as early as late Eocene time. A reversal of the subduction is

    thought to have occurred near the end of the Miocene when north-east directed

    subduction along the south west margin of the archipelago was initiated. The tectonic

    setting of the Solomon Island is presented in Figure 7.1.1

    Figure 7.1.1 The tectonic setting of the Solomon Island with Guadalcanal

  • Initial work to place the Solomon Island Group into a regional tectonics framework was

    that by P. Coleman in the 1960s. Coleman came up with the concept of a Geological

    Province Model (Figure 3-4).

    7.2. Geological Province Model

    Coleman initially divided the Solomon Island block into 4 geological provinces known as

    (a) central Geological Province; (b). Volcanic Geological Province; (c). Pacific Geological

    Province and; (d). Atoll Geological Province.

    Figure 7.2.1 Geological regional guadalcanal

    1. Fractured Arc Concept

    Brian D. Hackman (1980) used the concept of fractured arc involving rifting and block-

    faulting to explain the double en echelon chain nature of the island in wich Choiseul,

  • Santa Isabel and Malaita occur on the northern chain while Bouganville, the New

    Georgia Group, Guadalcanal and San Christobal occur in the southern chain.

    Atempts to incorporate the fractured arc model into a geo-tectonic framework were

    taken up by other (Harris of Gualer Resourches Limited, 1998) in the late 1990s. Their

    work mentions there major tectonic events involving subduction related events

    between the Australian an Pacific tectonic plates.

    According to this concept, the Solomon Island is composed of two sub-parallel

    northwest-southeast trending volcanic island archs situated on the Solomon Plate that

    form part of the circum-Paific volcanic arc. The Solomon Plate and Australian plateau

    subduct beneath the Solomon Plate. The subduction trench stretches from Vanuatu

    right through to eastern most Bouganville Island through to Lihir Group of Island in the

    northeast of Papua New Guinea. The geological history and evolution of the Solomon

    Islands is ascribed to these three major tectonic events.

    First Tectonic Event

    The first tectonic event saw the emplacement of submarine oceanic extruded as alkali

    olivine basaltic lavas during the faulire of a gearticlinal welt formed by converging and

    subducting Pacific and Australian Plates.

    A thick sequence of basic volcanic, limestone beds and dolerite of the Mbirao Group

    represents this emplaced oceanic crust.

    Second Tectonic Event

    A second phase of compressive tectonic event presumably metamorphosed the Mbirao

    oceanic basic volcanic and carbonate sequences and produced a series of ultrabasic and

    meta-gabbroic bodies in the Eocene to Oligocene times. This tectonic event is

    represented by ultrabasic emplacements in central and eastern Guadalcanal, San

    Cristobal, Santa Isabel and eastern Choiseaul.

    Third Tectonic Event

    The third tectonic event is described as domnated by block faulting, as a consequence of

    extensional faulting due to rifting. This tectonic extensional event occurred during the

    late Oligocene to lower Mocene.

  • First Volcanism associated wih the Third Tectonic Event

    The resultant uplift block-faulting led to the the erosion of metabasic rock and triggered

    the extrusion of basaltic to andesitic cala-alcalie volcanism. The Suta Volcanics of Central

    Guadalcanal and the Umasami Volcanics of West Guadalcanal were extruded as part of

    this third tectonic event.

    This periode of volcanisme produced the pilo of bassalts, basaltic andesites and

    associated pyroclastics and interbeds of limestone beds.

    The extrusive volcanism was then followed by the intrusion of high level igneous plutons

    of the Poha Diorite Complex in the Oligocene period. Similar volcanic and igneous

    activity was noted in Bouganville, Vanuatu and Fiji during the same periode.

    Suloihide mineralisatin ws associated with this period of basaltic-andesitic volcanism

    and emplacement of plutonic dioritic intussions in the Oligocene to early Miocene

    times.

    The deposition of various volcanic derived sediments occurred as a result of uplift and

    erosion of volcanic and plutonic igneous bodies.

    A hiatus period

    A hiatus accured during the Mocene. This is represented by depositin of carbonat

    platforms in extensie fringing reefs, forming the Mboneghe Limestone. Overlying

    unconformably with the Mboneghe Limestone are sequences of tuffs, siltstone,

    agglomerates, and tuffaceous arenities.

    Second Volcanism during the Third Tectonic Event

    In the late Miocene, another volcanic event produced the Galled lavas, basalts,

    hornblende andesites and related tuff breccia deposite on West Guadalcanal. These laas

    have been K-Ar dated at 6.39 Ma (Hackman,1980).

  • High level micro diorite to hornblende porphyry intrusion were emplaced during the

    Oligocene to Pleistocene. Rock of similar omposition also occur in the New Georgia

    Group. On west Guadalcanal, the Oligocene intrusions are overlain by the Lungga Beds.

    The topmost Racent calcareous volcanic arenites and terrace forming reefs form the

    Honiara Beds of stratigraphic sequence on West Guadalcanal.

    7.3. Geological Terrain Model

    Recent work by the Geology Department in the Ministry Mines in Soloman Islands in

    collaboration with the British overseas Geological Institute and various overseas

    University reserchers have further shed light on regional tectonic geology of the

    Solomon Island group. Their work has further improved and somewhat refined the

    original Geological Province Model Concept of Colemen into what they now refer to

    as Geological Terrain Model (Figure 3.1.3.3).

    The Geologcal Terrain Model concept was based on;

    (a). Lithological, geochemical, isotopic and geochronology differences or simmilarties of

    the basaltic basement complex comprising the majr islands.

    (b). The development (or lack of) of subsequent arc subduction.

    Based on above parameter, the refined model proposes to group the large islands of

    Choeseoul, Guadalcanal, Santa Isabel, San Christobal, Malaita, and New Georgia Group

    into differingGeological Terrains. (figure 3.1.3.1)

    In the Geological Terrain Model Choeseul and Guadalcanal basaltic basement

    complexes show simmilarties with mid-ocean ridges basalt or a MORB type terrain

    occurring in an intra-oceanic environment. They are considered as forming within a

    MORB Type Terrain.

  • Malaita, Santa Isabel (north of the Kalpito Thrust fault) and Ulwa show affinities of an

    aceanic plme type terrain related to Ontong Java Plateau (OTJP). They are considered to

    have formed and part of the OJP Terrain.

    Makira (or Santa Christoble) show a hybrid terrain showing mixed features of a MORB-

    type and a Plume-Type terrain. They are reffered to as a Mixed Terrain.

    Arc related subduction episode resulting from the coupling of north westerly moving

    Paciific Tectonic Plate with the northesterly moving Australian Continental Tectoniic late

    gave rise to alkaline nd calc-alkaline volcanism within the Solomon Block. The volcanism

    with its associated plutonic intrusions accreted to the basaltic basements of the MORB-

    type terrain in the Eocene to the present.

    These episode of arc related subduction were not evident in the Plume-type terrain of

    the OJPT basement hence Malaita, north Santa Isabel and Ulawa basaltic basement

    were unaffected by this arc related magmatism.

    Two episodes of related plate subduction occurred in the Eocene to the present within

    the Solomon Block. The Eocene to early Miocene related subduction occurs to the north

    of the Solomon Block along the Vitiaz trench system (figure 3.1.3-1).

    This earlier plate subduction phase gave rise to alkaline and calc-alcaline volcanism

    associated with the Suta and Gold Ridge Volcanics and their associated plutonic

    equivalents of the Kuloula, Poha and Lungga Diorites on Guadalcanal and its Micene age

    equivated Mole formation on Choeseul as well as the volcanic basement of the

    Shortland island group, the Frorida Group and south Santa Isabel.

    Choking and cessation of the Vitiaz trench system with its associated volcanism occurred

    as a result of the Ontong Java Plateau coupling and abutting onto the Solomon Block in

    the Miocene (figure 3.1-3-1).

  • Volcanic associaned with this second subdactiob tectonic phase gave rise to the alkaline

    and calc-alkaline volcanism found within the new Georgia grup, rusell island grup, savo

    and west guandalcanal.

    Figur 7.3.1 geological terrain model, mines department & other 1998

    The two periode of volcanism ascribed to the third phase of volcanism described in the

    factured arc concept probabely refers to the two periods of arc develotment associated

    with subduction along the vitiaz trench to the north of the Solomon block and

    subdaction along the new Britain-san cristobal trench associated with arc reversal as a

    consequence of the jamming of the vitiaz trench by the northwest moving thickened

    ontong jav plate as described in the geological terrain model.

    7.4 Local Geology

    Rennel basement geology is mainly comprised a sequence mostly of pillowed and

    unpillowed ( original tectonic ) lava, intruded by pods and lanses of cognate gabbro and

    diorite.

  • The Rendbel granudiorit occur as scaltered out-crops in foultes block in the nort-east of

    the island. They are serpentinised sometime containing asbestos fibre. The age of the

    Rennel granudiorit unknow but presumed to be give a tentative upper Oligocene age.

    7.5 Local geological structures

    Rennel is a lava block which has been uplifted and then titled to the north the cross

    section profile is asymmetric to the north it merges by minor step-faulting and plinges

    into deep water over a short distance. The faulthing on the island is intensive and has

    produced a mass of fault block which have been uplifted to varying degrees. This is

    probably part of the explanation for the sudden changes in the lithologiest of sediments

    over short distance. There is not folding.

    Figur 7.5.1 geological provinces in the Solomon island

    7.6 Mineralisation

    Bauxite laterites have developed over the weather granudiorit, rock inland of rennel and

    of rennel bay. The laterite are covered in part by fern and light vegetation and in part by

    a characteristic forest vegetation gently rounded hill clear indication of an granudiorit of

  • an country rock when viewed on aerial phohos are clear indication of an granudiorit

    country rock when viewed on aerial photos. The extent of the laterite of the granudiorit

    areas which are not fern covered may be estimated from the aerial photos by

    considering the gradient of the mountain slopes. Experiences has show that all the

    rounded ridges in granudiorit country are capped with laterite on it.

    The largest outcrop area of the granudiorit on Rennel island. The outcrop, a mile long by

    half a mile wide, consists of parallel adjacent faulted slices of gabbroic and granudiorit

    rock and it is presumed that this structure continues beneath the laterite cover. Locally

    a bluish shear breccia similar to the blue clay deposit on rennel island may be a

    redeposit shear paste .A strip of laterite about 50 feet wide and 500 feet long caps an

    granudiorit ridge one mile inland from Paa. The remote bweinaia warkiapu granudiorit

    area is about three quarters of a mile square and is covered by jungle laterite strips

    developed on the ridge crest to an unknown depth. A forested granudiorit area inland

    from rennel is also worth investigation for laterite occurences.

  • B. Proposed Programme by PT. Golden Solomon

    The tenement is prospecting for bauxite laterite which have been throught to be developed over the

    weathered granudiorit rock . Inland of Rennel island the laterites are covered in part by tern and light

    scrub vegetation, and in part by a characteristic forest vegetation. The programme over Rennel will

    involve detailed infill mapping and sampling of all identified targets along with reconnaissance surveys

    throughout remainder of the tenement.

    Once an area of bauxite mineralization has satisfctority located, extensive hand auger sampling survey

    programmes are envisaged the aim of better understanding the underlying styles of bauxite

    mineralization of ores.

    Geophysic surveys and hand feed drilling programme are expected to be completed over this area
