Ua Pu
Name(s) in local language(s):
Île de Ua Pou (ʻUapou), Îles Marquises (Archipel des Marquises; Te Henua (K)enana; Te Fenua `Enata), Polynésie française (Pōrīnetia Farāni)


Ua Pou (Ua Pu), located 50  km south of Nuku Hiva in the Marquesas northern group, is the fifth largest island of French Polynesia (105 km2). In contrast to most other Marquesas islands, it is devoid of any caldera. Ua Pou has a diamond-shaped outline and a north–south-trending central crest, circa 600  m high, from which diverge many secondary crests separated by deep valleys. The villages of Hakahau, Hakamoui, Paaumea, Hohoi, Hakatao, Hakamaii, Haakuti and Hakahetau are located in these valleys.

Ua Pou is known for its abundant and petrologically diverse phonolites (Lacroix, 1928 and 1931; Chubb, 1930; Bishop & Woolley, 1973; Brousse, 1978; Brousse & Maury, 1978; Legendre et al., 2005).

The most spectacular features of the island are its phonolitic protrusions (Ua Pou means the Pillar Island), the summits of which tower several hundred metres above the radial crests; the four highest pillars are named Oave (1203  m), Pouakei (1034  m), Matahenua (1028  m), Poumaka (979  m), and Poutetainui (970  m). The Ua Pou volcanic edifice is made up of a thick lava pile, mostly phonolitic and basaltic, intruded by about 30 phonolitic and trachytic protrusions. Like the other Marquesas islands, Ua Pou is devoid of any coral reef or reefal limestone unit.

Geochronology

Mineralization age: Pliocene : 4.00 ± 0.06 Ma

Important note: This table is based only on rock and mineral ages recorded on mindat.org for this locality and is not necessarily a complete representation of the geochronology, but does give an indication of possible mineralization events relevant to this locality. As more age information is added this table may expand in the future. A break in the table simply indicates a lack of data entered here, not necessarily a break in the geologic sequence. Grey background entries are from different, related, localities.
