Front Page Encyclopedias Dictionaries Almanacs ... Quotes Geography of Norfolk Island Norfolk Island is located in the South Pacific Ocean , east of Australia . Its geographical coordinates are 29 02 S, 167 57 E. The island is 34.6 sq. km. in size, of which, none of the land is covered by large-scale bodies of water. It has no land boundaries with any foreign country and has 32 km. of coastline. Norfolk Island claims an exclusive fishing zone extending 200 nm. and territorial sea claims to 3 nm. from the island. The climate is subtropical and mild, with little seasonal differentiation. The island is a volcanic formation with mostly rolling plains. The highest point is Mt. Bates, at 319 m., while the lowest point is sea level along the coast. The only major natural resource of Norfolk Island is fish, while there are no major arable lands of permanent farmlands, though about 25% of the island is a permanent pasture. There are no large forests, nor any irrigated land. From May to July , typhoons are a constant problem. This article courtesy of Wikipedia .

Main Page See live article Alphabetical index Norfolk Island Norfolk Island is an island in the Pacific ocean fairly near Australia , and one of Australia's few external territories . The island is 34km square. The Norfolk Island pine, also pictured in the flag, is a very striking pine tree that originates from the island and is quite popular in Australia. The British established their first penal colony on the island (1788-1814) to prevent the island falling into French hands. This colony was abandoned, as it failed to be self-supporting. A second penal colony was set-up 1825 and lasted until 1855. Its purpose was one of incarceration of hardened criminals. It is said that convicts went to the gallows glad to be released from the Hell on Earth that was Norfolk Island. In 1856, the island was resettled by Pitcairn Islanders , descendants of Tahitians and the Bounty mutineers. From the CIA World Factbook 2000. Not Wikified.

94. Norfolk Island Geological origins The norfolk island group is situated on the norfolk Ridge, anelongated submarine rise which extends from New Zealand to New Caledonia. http://www.norfolkisland.com.au/environment/geo2.html

Geological origins The Norfolk Island group is situated on the Norfolk Ridge, an elongated submarine rise which extends from New Zealand to New Caledonia. There are no other emergent outcrops in the group, with the closest land being New Caledonia (approximately 800 kilometres to the northwest). Environment Links Norfolk and Phillip Islands have similar geology, both being almost completely volcanic in origin. The sporadic volcanic activity which built the Islands extended over a period of roughly 700,000 years, beginning about 3 million years ago. The sea has since eroded Norfolk Island to about one-third of its original size and formed a coastline of high cliffs. The volcanic activity generated four distinct rock formations, consisting of fine to medium grained olivine basalts and tuffs (layered volcanic ash). These are the Ball Bay Basalts (the oldest dating to about 3 million years ago), the Duncombe Bay Basalts (2.66-2.69 million years), the Cascade Basalts (2.4 million years) and the Steeles Point Basalts (2.33-2.39 million years).
