Researchers investigate links between the Morrinsville fault and faulting in the Hamilton Basin


Source: University of Waikato
University of Waikato researchers who have been investigating newly-discovered faults in the Hamilton Basin say a fault uncovered near Morrinsville may have also impacted the Hamilton area.
Professor David Lowe and others in his team are working on a joint project, led by GNS Science and funded by EQC, investigating newly-identified Te Puninga Fault near Morrinsville.
His team of researchers has also been working to uncover Hamilton’s seismic history by analysing liquefied layers of volcanic ash preserved within sediments that accumulate at the bottom of lakes and using them to identify earthquake activity.
“Te Puninga Fault is the closest one to the Hamilton Basin, which we have been focused on, so we are now also trying to work out if activity on Te Puninga Fault may have impacted on the Hamilton Basin, and when.” ....

University researchers investigate links between Waikato fault lines


EQC
GNS Science experts have embarked on a research project to determine the earthquake risk of a recently discovered fault in Waikato.
One is in north Hamilton, around Osborne Rd, and the Kukutaruhe Fault cuts through Hamilton from Temple View to Rototuna.
Another two are in the southeastern Te Tatua o Wairere fault zone - a fault running between Rukuhia and Hillcrest, and a second branching out towards Tamahere.
In 2016, an 80km-long Kerepehi fault, running close to Matamata northward into the Firth of Thames, was discovered in the late 1970s but re-examined almost 50 years later in much greater detail.
From here GNS Science examined the 25km fault in Te Puninga, 27km from Hamilton, and is now working to determine how great the earthquake risk is to surrounding residents. ....
