Simplified geologic map of New Caledonia; inset shows a basic map of the SW Pacific near New Caledonia. Maps are modified from Cluzel et al. (2001), with ophiolite fabric trajectories from Prinzhofer and Nicolas (1980) and fold hinges in the Pouebo terrane from Rawling and Lister (2002). Lower-hemisphere, equal-area projections for foliation and lineation from select portions of the ophiolite illustrate the fabric inside and outside of postulated transform faults. Contours for these projections are in percent area; the contour intervals vary (for details, see Nicolas, 1989). WCFZ—western Caledonia fault zone.
