الوصف: Detailed lithofacies analysis of the Puponga Coal Measures Member along the western shore of the Whanganui Inlet, northwest Nelson, is based on five measured sections i hat incorporate parts of the interfingering and underlying North Cape Formation and overlying Farewell Formation. Two contrasting depositional systems, lithofacies Association A and B, are recognised on the basis of sedimentary structures, textures, paleocurrent data, and the local presence of coal and dinoflagellates. Association A1–3, North Cape Formation, which includes the Puponga Coal Measures Member (Haumurian ‐ Lower Teurian), represents a progradational sequence of estuarine, fluvial, floodplain, and mire deposits. Sub‐environments include: high energy subtidal channels, upper‐flow regime subtidal to intertidal sand shoals or flats, intertidal mixed sand/mud and mud flats, salt marsh, mires, fluvial distributary or crevasse channels and levees, and open/closed bays. The overall setting is a macrotidal estuary over which mi...
