Australian passive margins display a large variety of styles, including narrow, wide, volcanic and non- volcanic margins. Their tectonic history has been complicated by tectonic reactivation and anom- alous subsidence/uplift, widespread at various times during the post-rift phase. Drilling a continental margin and adjacent. oceanic crust offers a rare opportunity to ground-truth. interpretations based on remotely sensed data (. classification of passive continental margins (Eldholm et al. 1995). Variations in passive-margin evolution can be. shown by the different end-member attributes such as nar

Passive margins of this type show a simple progression through the transitional crust, from normal continental to normal oceanic crusts

Passive margins of this type show a simple progression through the transitional crust, from normal continental to normal oceanic crusts. The passive margin offshore Texas is a good example. Complex transitional crust. There are three main stages in the formation of passive margins: In the first stage a continental rift is established due to stretching and thinning of the crust and lithosphere by plate movement. This is the beginning of the continental crust subsidence.

Recent papers in Tectonic Evolution of Rifted Continental Margins . This upwelling was centered on a highly extended and subsided continental fragment bounded by the present-day subsea Sonne and Sonja Ridges and includes the Cuvier margin and Cape Range fracture zone. 6 m below seafloor (mbsf), respectively.

A passive margin is the transition between oceanic and continental lithosphere that is not an active plate margin. A passive margin forms by sedimentation above an ancient rift, now marked by transitional lithosphere. Continental rifting creates new. Continental rifting creates new ocean basins. Eventually the continental rift forms a mid-ocean ridge and the locus of extension moves away from the continent-ocean boundary
