%X Recent palaeomagnetic field sampling of Lower Pliocene sediments and lavas on Viti Levu, Fiji has produced seven new stable sites. These data are comparable with results from nine sites in the same formations previously published by Tarling (1967). Analysis suggests 21° anticlockwise rotation in 4 to 4½ m.y. This is interpreted as active rotation of the whole Fiji Platform, with microplate motion commencing at the close of the Miocene (6 m.y. BP).
