Te Kinga Quarry
Te Kinga Monzogranite was described originally by Mason and Taylor (1987), but not named officially until Mason (1990) coined the name "Te Kinga Adamellite". The name is converted to Te Kinga Monzogranite here to confer with the classification system of Le Maitre et at (1989). Te Kinga Monzogranite outcrops over =45 km2 as a fine or coarse grained, occasionally megacrystic, muscovite biotite monzogranite. The pluton occurs on the central and eastern parts of Mount Te Kinga, with outcrops also occurring in a quarry on a small unnamed hill (K32 913394) to the north of Mount Te Kinga, and on the Hohonu Ranges near Inchbonnie. Typical exposures of Te Kinga Monzogranite occur in the remains of a small Quarry on Hodgkinson Road (K32899380), about 1km south of Rotomanu Railway Station and nearby in the banks of the Poerua River .
