 North Fiji Basin - John Seach
SW Pacific Ocean

The North Fiji Basin is a large undersea tectonic feature between Vanuatu and Fiji.
The basin is a marginal sea no older than middle to late Miocene.
The North Fiji Basin is separated from the older South Fiji Basin by the Hunter Fracture Zone.
The basin has been shaped by complex multi-stage opening, bacarc extensional troughs, and rotation.
The Island of Anuta lies at the northern boundary of the basin.
