Abstract/Notes | Supported by the great weight of Hutton's authority, his views, with which those of Haast and the early views of Hector were in general agreement, have gained wide acceptance, notwithstanding the opposition of McKay. Marshall, for example, as late as 1911 wrote as follows: “The great elevation [Mesozoic orogenic movement] was succeeded by nearly as great a depression. The majestic mountain ranges were gradually lowered until nothing but a chain of islands showed above sea level. To what a great extent this movement prevailed is seen at Lake Te Anau, where the Oamaru formation, some 3,000 feet thick, rises to the tops of the mountains. At Wakatipu and in the Rangitata valley the Oamaru rocks are found in the recesses of the mountains. In the Trelissick basin and between the masses of the Kaikoura ranges there was deep water. The valleys of the tributaries of the Buller are filled with Oamaru sediments.” |
