▼ Women’s empowerment is the most recent approach to women in development. The inclusion of women’s empowerment in development policies has recently gained traction in Papua New Guinea (PNG). However, the effectiveness of such policies has been questioned in its efforts to support local women to improve their lives. This study was undertaken to understand Australia’s Official Development Assistance (ODA) to PNG in terms of the contribution of the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) to supporting women’s empowerment in Oro province through the implementation of its Gender Equality and Women’s Empowerment Strategy 2016. With the huge gender inequality gap in PNG and the rise in Gender-Based Violence (GBV), women’s empowerment is an approach that can contribute to helping local women improve their lives. The purpose of this study was to understand the trickle-down effect of Australia’s ODA to subnational organisations in PNG, and its contributions to women’s empowerment in Oro province. The study used a qualitative approach involving policy document reviews and interviews with research participants. The key findings from this study show that there is no direct support to local women’s organisations in Oro province either from DFAT or the PNG government; there are some issues with implementation and ownership of DFAT’s Gender Equality and Women’s Empowerment Strategy and the PNG government’s gender policies in Oro province; and that women’s coalitions can be a vehicle for change in local communities in Oro province. This study offers benefits to DFAT programmes in PNG, and to national government agencies tasked to review their gender policies; as well as the Oro Provincial Administration; the Oro Provincial Government; and the Oro Provincial Council of Women. The study suggests topics for further research. It also suggests that DFAT’s Gender Equality and Women’s Empowerment Strategy, and its associated funding have the potential to improve women’s lives in Oro province and PNG more broadly.

▼ Papua New Guinea is among other developing countries that are faced with a critical shortage in human resources in health, specifically nurses, and rural areas are the most affected. Initially, and perhaps unsurprisingly, there were only two relevant studies that directly related to Papua New Guinea in this area based on the literature search. The first of these two studies was focused on nurses and the social aspect of rural motivation compared to the other which was focused on rural health professionals in general. Nevertheless, other research studies were eventually found from other developing countries such as certain Pacific, African and Latin American countries that served to assist in focusing the research on the chosen topic. This descriptive-exploratory study set out to explore the sustaining factors that influenced existing nurses to remain (or otherwise) in their work in Papua New Guinea’s rural areas. As such, the study involves 10 rural nurses with over two years of rural work experience in two different organisations; government and church. The interviews were semi-structured and were designed to explore the motivating factors for rural nurses and how any challenges, or demotivating factors, were overcome. The interviews were conducted in the common spoken language Tok Pisin which was translated into English, transcribed and analysed thematically. Overall the study found that rural nurses are disadvantaged because they struggle with limited resources to deliver effective health care, and they also face several personal challenges which are often overlooked. The main findings are categorised under two major themes, 1) safety and 2) socioeconomic, and each are explored by further exploration of the themes and sub-themes that are evident in both. The implications of this study are examined, including recommendations, to develop policies that are designed to address the ongoing needs of rural nurses in Papua New Guinea.

▼ Television in Papua New Guinea strives to exist in a pluralistic society characterised by diverse local cultures and traditions that blend with Western influences. It is important to understand the role of television and its influence on such a pluralistic country as it continues to go through the process of nation building. Global advances in media and technology that will one day penetrate deep into such societies will need to be understood; however, this may not be possible without first setting the context for television, which is tied into the country’s post-colonial history. This study looks at television news producers and audiences in regard to the encoding/decoding model, in order to understand the role television has played in Papua New Guinea in terms of nation building. There is, however, very little literature on television news producers and audiences in PNG. As such, an explorative approach was taken to look into the encoding and decoding of EMTV news by journalists and student audiences. The main questions addressed in this thesis are: Why do journalists make/report/produce news? How do journalist make/report/produce news? Why do student audiences watch news? How do student audiences watch news? What meanings are encoded by journalists onto the news discourse? What implications can be drawn from the news discourse? What meanings do student audiences decode from the news discourse? The theoretical frameworks that inform this research include the “encoding/decoding” model of active audiences and the De-Westernizing Media model. A mixed method approach was taken, where four research methods were employed to look into encoding and decoding of EMTV news throughout its circuit of communication. In-depth interviews were carried out with four journalists, to understand their encoding roles, their personal motivations for the job, their perception of newsworthiness and the meanings they encode onto the news discourse. A total of 135 questionnaires were completed by student audiences, and a focus group was held with eight students. These were to understand audience encoding roles and experiences, their personal motivations for watching, their perception of newsworthiness, the meanings they decode and their overall perception of EMTV news. To further understand meanings within news discourse, a discourse analysis was carried out on a representative news sample to identify the implications embedded in the representative news bulletin. By the end of the research, and after collating and analysing the data it was concluded that EMTV news has contributed negatively to nation building because of its focus on Western news values. Through its coverage of bad news or negative stories, it has created a negative image of the country and its people. EMTV news reports are biased in their choice of cultural representation, rather than blending the country’s rich and diverse cultures into creating a unified hegemonic identity. As a result, provincial identities emerge among student audiences, rather than a national… Advisors/Committee Members: Lealand, Geoff (advisor).

▼ This study examines how political governance of liquid fuels at the institutional level contributes to energy security in Papua New Guinea (PNG) from a political economic perspective. An interpretive methodology and critical case analysis design were used to analyse LNG energy governance regime (policies, legislation, and institutions) and its relationship with energy security. The research design involved analysis of participants’ observations and documents in relation to the critical cases (instances) in the practice of the energy regime under the Somare and O’Neill governments between 2002 and 2017. By using the characteristics of the Quality Energy Governance Framework (QEGF) which emerged from the analysis of the literature on energy governance and energy security, this study shared a new policy insight that energy security is actually created through the interactions that occur between political actors and the institutions and processes of energy governance. The study found that energy governance is a system of interacting institutions, policies and legislation created by the political institutions for the purpose of achieving economic efficiency in order to produce public value. The effective functioning of this system depends on the quality of the political institutions. A strong political institution constructs a quality policy regime which, in turn, translates into operational and adaptive qualities of an energy regime that enhances energy security. Alternatively, where a political institution is weak, the operational and adaptive qualities of the energy governance system are also incrementally diminished, thus generating energy insecurity, which, in turn, affects development outcomes. Accordingly, the study concludes that in PNG the qualities of the energy governance system did not seem to effectively function efficiently as a whole due to the political-economic interests and non-compliance to the institutional qualities. This, in turn, has had the effect of generating energy insecurity rather than enhancing energy security. In effect, the practices associated with the formal governance arrangements have failed to deliver a consistent and predictable governance system for PNG LNG and development outcomes have suffered as a result. The social interaction of political and economic actors and their interests in the energy governance system is complex and quite difficult to predict, resulting in an unstable energy regime. Given the unpredictability of this energy regime, political reform should assume primacy as a first order priority to withstand emerging energy governance issues and challenges that might contribute to energy insecurity.

▼ Background Providing social support for women during labour and birth has benefits for both women and babies. Social support from family members or friends during labour and birth is practised in many developed countries as well as a few developing countries. Traditionally in Papua New Guinea (PNG), women provide support to women in labour in the village settings. Women in labour are cared for by immediate family members and relatives as well as close friends. In only very few places the birthing woman is left alone to care for herself and labour alone. In hospitals throughout PNG however, women are not provided with such support during labour and give birth alone. Aim The aim of the study was to introduce support in labour by a person of the women’s choice at the maternity unit of Port Moresby General Hospital (PMGH). The study also aimed to examine the challenges associated with undertaking a change such as support in labour using Greenhalgh’s diagram as the model identifying all aspects of Diffusion of Innovation theory. Method A descriptive study using qualitative data was undertaken. Data were collected from midwives and birthing women prior to the implementation of providing support in labour through surveys and observation of practice in the Labour Ward. The intervention of providing support in labour by a person of the birthing woman’s choice was implemented for eight weeks. During the implementation of intervention support in labour, further observations were undertaken of the practice in the Labour Ward. Support persons and the women were interviewed after they had given birth. Data were also collected from midwives after the implementation process of support in labour. Findings The majority of women and their support persons agreed that providing support in labour had benefits for them. Support in labour provided a valued opportunity to be with their loved ones. Midwives were unable to provide support because of the busy nature of their work and the limited staffing. Women wanted to have support in labour in the Labour Ward of PMGH. The most preferred person to provide support was their mother, followed by their husband, and others, such as an aunt, grandmother, friend or mother-in-law. Despite these positive findings, providing support in labour was hard to implement. Approximately half the midwives did not support the implementation although this reluctance was often hidden. The theory of diffusion of innovation was used to analyse why support in labour was difficult to implement. The process highlighted that the key attributes for innovation adoption were not totally adopted by the midwives. Though some of the influences that help spread innovation were implemented, such as the use of champions, formal and informal engagement and the use of evidence, the prevailing organisational culture was a strong negative influence and was the main reason for midwives not accepting the innovation of support in labour. Implications for practice The findings revealed that the…

▼ This study concerns the application of ethnographic information to the understanding of prehistoric peoples. The ethnography of contemporary sago-using peoples, who inhabit the foothill margin of the deltaic swamps of the Papuan Gulf, and the archaeological evidence recovered from a series of excavated open and rock shelter sites serve as the basis for this work.The Kairi living at Waira Village, who are the focus of my ethnographic research, follow a dual residence system: permanent villages along large rivers and temporary encampments sited near the interior margin of a broad alluvial plain. Their primary subsistence pursuits: sago-making, fishing and hunting follow traditional modes; however, European tools have contributed to some recent alterations. The contemporary Kairi land-use strategy, as interpreted from a time-and-motion study of the VJaira community, is oriented from the location of sagopalm stands, instead of the village site. Taking this information and the observed seasonal flucuations in subsistence and settlement strategies into account I construct a model of contemporary land-use. This analogue and that derived for the contact period are expressed in a series of working and test hypotheses which relate the modelled behavioural patterns to their archaeological reflections. Before considering the archaeological evidence I derive a further set of alternative models from an analysis of other Melanesian sago-using groups. The usefulness of this expanded view of the application of ethnographic analogues - namely the projection of possible prehistoric systems for which there is no evidence in the area today - is demonstrated through model testing. The second part of the thesis considers the archaeological evidence and an assessment against the sui-tes of test hypotheses is made. The results suggest that the occupation of the Waira region extends over approximately the last 3000 years. Subsistence strategies appear to have changed little during that time from what is noted today. Settlement patterns have, however, altered between 1500-1200 BP and from just before European contact to today. This change is marked by the siting of villages along major waterways, repeated use of temporary encampments near the karst escarpment and occurrence of large amounts of exotic commodities. A consideration of the mechanisms of trade and exchange whereby exotic goods reached the Kairi area concludes this thesis. From this analysis I hypothesize that the times when the regional settlement pattern was altered represent intense periods of coastal trade linking sago-producing peoples of the Papuan Gulf with more easterly sited pottery-making communities.

▼ This thesis examines aspects of poverty, risk and coping mechanisms in remote rural Papua New Guinea. The three essays draw on a unique cross sectional data set, collected in February 2012, from a study area in Obura Wonenara District in Eastern Highlands Province. The essays contribute to filling a gap in the literature on poverty in Papua New Guinea, which, to date, has had limited household studies of poverty in remote areas, and has largely neglected the role of a range of risks and their relationships to poverty as well as the role of informal insurance networks in responding to different kinds of risks. The essays also add to the scarce international literature on poverty in remote locations, and extend the international literature on informal insurance by studying both inter-household and intra-household transfers, and examining the extent of external support networks. The results show that the study area households face extraordinarily high levels of risks and are very weakly networked. Geospatial factors interact with inadequate government services, low levels of human capital, a lack of markets and underdeveloped family and social capital to contribute to the community members living in poverty, with limited household assets. Even those with higher asset levels are likely to be animal-based protein deficient. Multiple market failures mean that coping mechanisms are limited and there is an excessive reliance on consumption-reducing strategies. Households are too poor to enter into extensive informal insurance networks, which are underdeveloped both between and within households. Only a handful of households have potential insurers outside of the study area. The poorest within the study area are relatively geographically disadvantaged,more food insecure, more exposed to serious risk, more reliant on consumption reducing strategies and less insured through social networks. However, while relative poverty within the study area is certainly real, the main conclusion from the research is that nearly all of the people living in the study area are poor and extremely vulnerable to suffering from irreversible harm due to malnutrition.

▼ This thesis develops a critical account of encounters between customary and modern forms of relationship to land in two Melanesian countries, Papua New Guinea and Timor-Leste. Specifically, it asks: what are the implications of these encounters for relations of power? In both Papua New Guinea and Timor-Leste, customary land tenures provide the dominant mechanism for the organization of land. Nevertheless, processes of globalization, state- and nation-building are catalysing the extension of modern forms of connection to land, anchored in an understanding of land as property and as an economic resource to be utilized within capitalist, and specifically neoliberal, relations of production and â€˜developmentâ€™. As different forms of connection to land intersect, so too are differing forms of identity and belonging, differing visions of the world and of the self, brought into contestation. Across the thesis, entanglement is developed as a core theoretical concept, speaking to the dynamic and ambivalent nature of this contested social field. Through a metaphor of entanglement, the customary and modern are conceptualized as ontologically distinct patterns of practice and meaning; forms of social relations that cut across the boundaries of social groups rather than being synonymous with them. The thesis argues that the entanglement of customary and modern forms of connection to land destabilise structures of power in ways that create multiple possibilities for their reconfiguration. At a level of generality, there is a dominant tendency towards the diminishing autonomy of local communities, as power and decision-making capacity shifts to the sites, agents and processes of the state and globalising capital, and as customary ways of lifeâ€”including forms of connection to landâ€”are ideologically and normatively devalued. In theoretical terms, the abstracted nature of modern social relations lends them a coercive capacity over less abstracted, customary ones. Nonetheless, customary forms of sociality are also able to accommodate a considerable degree of abstraction. Entanglements, then, also generate new possibilities for the rearticulation and reassertion of customary connection to land, and of the forms of power and authority to which that connection gives rise.

▼ The Mount Fubilan Intrusion is part of a geologically young hypabyssal stock in the Star Mountains of Papua New Guinea. This stock was mapped as the Ok Tedi Intrusive Complex and divided into four separate bodies: the Mount Fubilan, Sydney Intrusion, Kalgoorlie, and Ningi Intrusions. Hydrothermal fluids caused alteration of the Mount Fubilan, and parts of the other intrusions, to potassic and propylitic mineral assemblages and deposited gold and copper. This investigation documents similarities and differences between the least-altered intrusive rocks of the complex and those that have undergone potassic metasomatism. The study involved detailed petrographic examination of more than two hundred thin-sections, major-oxide and trace element chemistry, and microprobe analyses of individual minerals. The magmas that crystallized to form the stock are shown to be intermediate in composition between andesite and latite. They were quartz-saturated, metaluminous, weakly iron-rich, and crystallized under oxidizing conditions. The principal mineral phases in the least-altered intrusive rocks are andesine, pyroxene, orthoclase, and quartz. The accessory mineral suite in least-altered rocks includes biotite, sphene, apatite, magnetite, and zircon. Hornblende is present in a few samples Magmatic pyroxene is diopsidic in composition; hornblendes is cdenitic; and biotite is annitic. Potassic alteration has converted andesine to orthoclase, or mixtures of albite and orthoclase, ferro magnesian minerals to hydrothermal biotite, sphene to rutile, and magnetite to pyrite and chalcopyrite. Hydrothermal biotite is phlogopitic in composition. Gold and copper were concentrated in the zone of potassic alteration. The mineralogical transformation of the intrusive rocks of the Mount Fubilan and associated intrusions was caused by the infiltration of hydrothermal fluids that deposited potassium, gold, and copper and that leached and removed virtually all other rock constituents. Leached components were transported away from the zone of potassic alteration and deposited in peripheral parts of the intrusive complex to form propylites, endoskarn, and massive replacement bodies or removed from the system entirely. The Mount Fubilan intrusion was closely similar in chemistry and mineralogy to the other intrusions of the complex prior to alteration. Petrochemical differences between the Mount Fubilan Intrusion and the other intrusions were produced entirely by hydrothermal alteration. Advisors/Committee Members: Field, Cyrus W. (advisor), Taylor, Ed (committee member).

▼ Tropical forests are some of the most biodiverse places remaining on Earth, they provide habitat for many species, contain a rich array of plant and animal life not found elsewhere, play a role in regulating local as well as global climate and weather patterns. An estimated 6- 25% of global greenhouse gas emissions arise from deforestation and degradation, primarily of tropical forests. Papua New Guinea (PNG) contains one of the largest extant areas of tropical forest in the world, and expansion of the industrial logging industry in recent decades has been the biggest driver of forest decline in that nation. This thesis examines the impact of logging in Papua New Guinea (PNG) on forest carbon stocks, and the role that logging plays in attempts to reduce deforestation and degradation as a method of reducing global greenhouse gas emissions. All previously existing measurements from PNG which could be used to estimate carbon stocks in logged and unlogged forest were collated. The best estimate of forest carbon stocks contained in PNG’s forests in 2002 was 4,770 million tonnes (Mt) (+/-13%), and the best estimate of gross forest carbon released through deforestation and degradation between 1972 and 2002 was 1,178 Mt (+/-18%). Forty-one percent of 2001 emissions resulted from logging. The large uncertainty in this estimate of carbon stocks and fluxes was primarily due to the small number and plot size of field measurements, and the lack of logging damage studies in PNG. To address this uncertainty, additional measurement of forest carbon in logged and unlogged forests in PNG, using a plotless technique designed to capture landscape scale variation in forest carbon and biomass, were undertaken across four different logging concessions in lowland rainforest. At Makapa concession in Western province, measured average unlogged above ground forest carbon was 111.34 +/- 2.35 tonnes per hectare (t ha-1) with 34.91 +/- 2.84 t ha-1 killed after the first round of logging, including damage from felling, skidding and deforestation for road building. At Amanab concession in Sandaun province, average unlogged above ground forest carbon ranged from 82.25 +/- 5.2 t ha-1 to 108.14 +/- 3.62 t ha- 1, and between 27.57 +/- 2.36 t ha-1 and 37.66 +/- 1.80 t ha-1 killed after logging. At Asengseng and Mosa Laem logging concessions in West New Britain province, unlogged above ground forest carbon stocks were measured as 155.05 +/- 4.96 t ha-1 and 117.41+/- 4.34 t ha-1 respectively, with losses from logging measured as 39.97 t ha-1 +/- 1.85 t ha-1 and 47.85 +/- 2.35 t ha-1. On average the first harvest removed 33% of initial forest carbon, which underestimates total logging damage as repeat harvesting within 35 years is widespread in PNG and causes additional carbon losses. During the last decade, the logging of tropical natural forest in Brazil, Indonesia, Malaysia, Cameroon, Gabon, Central African Republic, Republic of Congo, Democratic Republic of Congo, Papua New Guinea and the Solomon Islands generated an…

▼ BACKGROUND: Papua New Guinea (PNG) did not fully meet all 8 Millennium Development Goals outlined by the United Nations – including goal number 4 to reduce child mortality. While the under-5 mortality ratio decreased between 2004-2015, the neonatal mortality ratio remained unchanged. Previous interventions aimed at reducing neonatal mortality have been effective in other low-resource settings; however, little data exists regarding the standard of obstetric and neonatal care in PNG, particularly at a regional level. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate and compare existing birthing practices both in the regional hospital and among one rural people group within PNG prior to identifying and providing an appropriate intervention with a primary goal of reducing neonatal mortality. METHODS: This study was completed in 2 phases. In the first phase (2015), birthing practices among two distinct populations in PNG were described after 35 vaginal deliveries were directly observed at the provincial hospital and 31 oral interviews were completed on a nearby island with mothers who had previous rural deliveries. After identifying neonatal resuscitation training as a need among village midwives, Helping Babies Breathe (HBB) training was implemented during the second phase of the project (2018). RESULTS: Despite traveling an average distance of 22.3 km to reach the hospital, women who delivered at the hospital were more likely to have received prenatal care (91%) compared to only 58% of women who delivered on the island (located 12.5 km away). Prior to the HBB training, hand hygiene was utilized before all hospital deliveries and only before 1 rural delivery. Infants born on the island were rarely dried and stimulated immediately (13%), while this practice was part of routine care at the hospital (94%). Clean supplies were used to cut the umbilical cord for just over half the island deliveries (52%) compared to all of the hospital births. On the island, 61% of deliveries were attended by a village midwife and 22.6% of neonates died (compared to 8.6% at the hospital). 17 women from the island underwent HBB training in 2018. Compared to a pre-course assessment, there was a 100% increase in the number of participants who correctly washed their hands. Additionally, 82% immediately dried and stimulated the baby and 65% correctly provided ventilation (increase from 0 and 6%, respectively). CONCLUSION: There is a large discrepancy of routine newborn care within the hospital and rural populations in the New Ireland Province, including higher rates of neonatal mortality among babies born on the island. Standardized neonatal resuscitation training can be effectively delivered to village midwives in this region despite no previous training and high illiteracy rates. Further studies are needed to determine the long-term retention among trained providers and the regional effect on neonatal mortality.

▼ The South Pacific nation of Papua New Guinea (PNG) is in the midst of a generalized HIV epidemic with an adult prevalence rate higher than one percent. This thesis focuses on on HIV and AIDS policy in PNG from an anthropological perspective. The research conducted in this thesis considers HIV and AIDS in PNG through two distinct yet interrelated techniques. First, I conduct a detailed review and analysis of the ethnographic and non-ethnographic literature under a thematic framework. Second, I utilize a discursive methodology as part of a critical-interpretive framework to review and analyze selected policies from both governmental and non-governmental sources at the national, bilateral, and multilateral level. This grounded methodology allows for the analysis of discourse through a critical process of memoing and inductive analysis of the policy artefacts. I seek to determine the constituent discourses and themes found in PNG’s HIV and AIDS policy documents. Three primary themes emerged from the analysis. Firstly, there is a clear recognition that HIV and AIDS causes adverse effects across PNG’s society. These adverse effects are often segmented across various sectors of society, as represented by economic effects and development indicators. Direct human costs are often noted as being secondary to these economic and developmental impacts. Secondly, there is a diffusion of responsibility in responses to the epidemic. Subordinate to the primary tropes, but fitting within this dyadic conceptualization, are factors such as stigma, discrimination and gender. Finally, the use of technocratic rhetoric —a combination of medico-scientific terminology and development jargon – obscures the cultural dynamics of HIV-related stigma and discrimination. The examination of policy and literature also indicates the presence of an implementation gap (differences between policies that exist on paper), and how they were actually conceived and implemented (or not) in affected communities. This body of research adds to the existing corpus of knowledge on the topic of HIV and AIDS in PNG, along with the critical anthropological analysis of text. While this thesis stands solidly on its own, it also sets the perfect stage for more traditional and long-term anthropological fieldwork Advisors/Committee Members: Downe, Pamela J, Waldram, James B, Lawson, Karen, Muri, Allison, Ervin , Alexander.

Research Doctorate - Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)

A great deal of research indicates that over 100 million children worldwide are marginalised from education, including about 40 million with some form of disability living in the Asia Pacific region. In countries with high levels of human poverty and low national human development, education is an important vehicle to employment, independence, and social and political empowerment. For children with disability, education holds the potential to transform experiences of deprivation into opportunities for greater personal freedom and family and community respect and belonging. East Asia and Pacific studies have linked low school attendance rates for children with disability in such island nations as Papua New Guinea and Timor-Leste with traditional beliefs about the causes of disability and family shame. This study sought to reveal and understand the complexities of education provision in Papua New Guinea and Timor-Leste, with a view to offering recommendations for growth in Timor-Leste’s system of education for children with disability. In both countries, approximately 99% of children with disability are excluded from the education system. Prior studies have shed light on the impact of such diseases as malaria, chronic malnutrition, and an inadequate health system on survival rates for young children. Many of these studies also highlight the challenges of providing quality education in overcrowded classrooms with limited educational resources and professional training in disability-inclusive teaching methods. Papua New Guinea’s education system was chosen for intensive study as, despite the complex human development challenges facing the country, the government had transformed its segregated education system for children with disability into an inclusive system for all children. The researcher sought to gain historical and current perspectives on the transformation process, and identify features of the inclusive education system that may have relevance and application for children with disability in Timor-Leste. The research approach employed in this study included collection and analysis of the professional and personal perspectives of 32 education and rehabilitation leaders and practitioners working in Papua New Guinea and Timor-Leste, and has been supported by analysis of documentary data in related fields of study. Research methods included case study interviews in Papua New Guinea, establishment of a Timor-Leste reference group of educational leaders, and development of an analysis model to guide data coding, analysis, interpretation, and display. One of the most important discoveries made during the course of this study was the limited impact of the 20 years of educational reform in Papua New Guinea on enrolment rates for children with disability. This discovery resulted in an emphasis on transformative human rights and empowerment perspectives in the study’s conclusions and recommendations. The recommendations offered promote transformation of educational…

▼ The Lihir gold deposit (also known as Ladolam), has a 56 Moz resource and is the world’s largest alkalic gold deposit in terms of contained gold. It is located on Lihir Island, part of the Tabar-Lihir-Tanga-Feni island chain, New Ireland Province, Papua New Guinea. The Tabar-Lihir-Tanga-Feni island chain formed in a complex tectonic environment over the past four million years. Docking of the colossal Ontong Java Plateau at the Melanesian trench during the Miocene caused near-complete cessation of magmatism and a reversal of subduction polarity, forming the markedly northward-convex New Britain Trench. Pliocene to Recent subduction along the New Britain Trench was coeval with sinistral transposition of New Ireland relative to New Britain, and the formation of the Tabar-Lihir-Tanga-Feni island chain. Lavas of Lihir and other islands in the chain are shoshonitic, alkali- and volatile-rich, silica-undersaturated, and highly oxidized with elevated large-ion lithophile element contents. Their hybrid geochemical characteristics are consistent with partial melting of an already metasomatized, oxidized and hydrous mantle wedge originally formed by the Miocene Melanesian subduction zone. Lihir Island is composed of five volcanic centers, presently inactive. The Luise volcano consists of a 4 × 3.5 km wide amphitheater, elongated and breached to the northeast. This is inferred to be a remnant of the original ~ 1.1 km high volcanic cone that underwent sector collapse(s). The Lihir gold deposit is situated in the foot wall of the sector collapse detachment surface and consists of several adjacent and partly overlapping orebodies (Lienetz, Minifie, Kapit, Kapit NE, etc.). The sector collapse event(s) marked an important stage in the deposit’s evolution by superimposing late-stage, gold-rich, alkalic low-sulfidation epithermal mineralization upon early-stage, porphyry-style alteration. A broad, three-fold vertical alteration zonation at Lihir is interpreted to represent this evolution. With increasing depth, the alteration zones consist of: (1) a ~ 0.2 Ma to 0.0 Ma, surficial, generally barren, steam-heated clay alteration zone that is a product of modern high-temperature geothermal activity; (2) a ~ 0.6 to 0.2 Ma, high-grade (> 3 g/t Au), refractory sulfide and adularia alteration zone that represents the ancient epithermal environment; and (3) a ~ 0.9 to 0.3 Ma, comparatively low-grade (< 1 g/t Au) zone rich in anhydrite ± carbonate, coupled with biotite alteration, that represents the ancient porphyry-style environment. Recent volcanism has occurred during the modern geothermal-stage, with the emplacement of several diatreme breccia bodies. Early porphyry-style hydrothermal activity in the Lienetz orebody resulted in a magmatic-hydrothermal breccia complex and associated hydrothermal veins and breccia veins, most of which contain abundant anhydrite. An eight-stage vein paragenesis, linked with a five-stage breccia paragenesis, records the transition from porphyry-style to epithermal conditions. A spectacular anhydrite ±…
