Complex covers 35 km² and lies on the axis of the Inland Kaikoura Range, with Mount Tapuaenuku reaching an elevation of 2885 m. The intrusion cuts Jurassic metagreywackes and has a radial dike swarm that extends into younger rocks. Eight intrusive untis are distinguished by Baker et al. (1994).

Geochronology

Mineralization age:Cretaceous : 103 ± 11 Ma to 93 ± 10 Ma

Important note: This table is based only on rock and mineral ages recorded on mindat.org for this locality and is not necessarily a complete representation of the geochronology, but does give an indication of possible mineralization events relevant to this locality. As more age information is added this table may expand in the future. A break in the table simply indicates a lack of data entered here, not necessarily a break in the geologic sequence. Grey background entries are from different, related, localities.
