An outcrop‐based study of the economically significant Late Cretaceous Rakopi Formation, northwest Nelson, Taranaki Basin, New Zealand
New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, 2008Co-Authors: Greg H. Browne, Elizabeth M. Kennedy, Rosalie M. Constable, Erica M. Crouch, J. Ian Raine, Richard SykesAbstract:Abstract The Late Cretaceous Rakopi Formation (Pakawau Group) represents one of the most important petroleum source rock units and a potential reservoir unit in the highly prospective Taranaki Basin. This paper presents a predominantly outcrop‐based study of the sedimentology, petrography, stratigraphy, and Depositional environment of the Rakopi Formation in the Paturau River and Pakawau areas of northwest Nelson, southern Taranaki Basin, together with some preliminary insights into the stratigraphie architecture of the Pakawau Group on a more basin‐wide scale. The Rakopi Formation is interpreted here as a Terrestrial Deposit, representing sedimentation in fluvial channels and their associated overbank and levee environments. However, the presence of dinoflagellates, glauconite, and elevated coal seam sulfur contents is evidence for periodic marine influence during Deposition. This could be explained by a low‐gradient coastal plain paleogeography, crossed by a series of rivers and their associated floodpl...
