Abstract
International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP) Expedition 369 recovered the first stratigraphically constrained volcanic sequence at Site U1513 on the eastern flank of the Naturaliste Plateau. We report macroscopic and microscopic core description and petrophysical data from this 82.20 m thick volcanic sequence (Lithostratigraphic Unit VI). We present a modified volcanic stratigraphy based on postexpedition examination of the core sections from Holes U1513D and U1513E. The volcanic sequence is divided into nine lithologic units consisting of alternating basaltic flows (Units 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9) and volcaniclastic beds (Units 2, 4, 6, and 8), cut by multiple intrusions.
