"Pacific-Gondwana Permo-Triassic Orogenic Belt with Lesser Overprinted " by Sukahar Eka Adi Saputra and Christopher L. Fergusson
The Paleozoic to Early Mesozoic Pacific-facing active margin of East Gondwana has been shown to extend into the Kemum Block of northern Bird Head Peninsula (western New Guinea), and was associated with Mid Paleozoic orogenic deformation and Devonian to Triassic silicic magmatism and foreland basin deposition. In the Mawi Bay area of the eastern Bird Head Peninsula, the (?) Permian Mawi Complex is a multiply-deformed unit with a pre-Late Triassic D1 deformation formed in an Andean back-arc setting associated with active margin tectonism. The D1 deformation is characterized by recumbent, isoclin...
