New Zealand's Second Meteorite: Makarewa (find, L4, S5, W2)
One of the most remarkable discoveries of a meteorite in New Zealand was that of Makarewa. Discovered in 1879, Makarewa is a ‘find’ that was uncovered a metre below the surface of a clay bank during excavation works for a train line in the southern South Island.

Frictional experiments of dolerite at intermediate slip rates with controlled temperature: Rate weakening or temperature weakening? [PDF]
A rotary shear apparatus has been newly set up in Chiba University which can control the temperature near a sliding surface, T_meas, up to 1000°C independently from slip rate, V.

Boninite and Harzburgite from Leg 125 (Bonin-Mariana Forearc): A Case Study of Magma Genesis during the Initial Stages of Subduction [PDF]
Holes drilled into the volcanic and ultrabasic basement of the Izu-Ogasawara and Mariana forearc terranes during Leg 125 provide data on some of the earliest lithosphere created after the start of Eocene subduction in the Western Pacific.

Evidence for Miocene subduction beneath the Alboran Sea (Western Mediterranean) from 40Ar/39Ar age dating and the geochemistry of volcanic rocks from holes 977A and 978A [PDF]
Volcanic pebbles in gravels from Sites 977 and 978 in the Alboran Sea (western Mediterranean) were dated (using the 40Ar/ 39Ar single-crystal laser technique) and analyzed for their major- and trace-element compositions (determined by X-ray ...
