Bulk and clay mineral investigations were conducted on approximately 750 samples from four sites drilled during Ocean Drilling Program Leg 189 on the western Tasmanian margin (Site 1168), the South Tasman Rise (Sites 1170 and 1171), and the East Tasman Plateau (Site 1172). The mineralogy of the bulk sediment is very similar at all sites, and major changes coincide with the boundaries of the three main lithologic units described in the Leg 189 Initial Reports volume. The clay mineral assemblages show significant regional differences, but their major variations coincide at all sites and with major changes in regional tectonics and climate.
