Basal carbonate sediments recovered at Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Site 1149 lie directly on magnetic Anomaly M12. They contain abundant and moderately well preserved calcareous nannofossils. Two nannofossil zones are recognized: the lower Calcicalathina oblongata Zone and the upper Lithraphidites bollii Zone, indicating a late Valanginian-late Hauterivian age. The close occurrence of two significant bioevents, the first occurrence (FO) of L. bollii and the FO of Rucinolithus terebrodentarius in Core 185-1149B-20R, together with dip data recorded during in situ geophysical logging, suggest the presence of an unconformity that corresponds to the lower Hauterivian sedimentary section. The continuous occurrence of L. bollii is reported for the first time in sediments from the Pacific Ocean. Other marker species regarded as cosmopolitan (e.g., C. oblongata) have a sporadic occurrence. Nannoconids, very useful zonal markers for Tethyan areas, are virtually absent. The presence of an unusually high abundance of Diazomatolithus lehmanii is also recorded and correlates with the Valanginian 13C positive excursion.

Major element chemistry of basalt from the southern East Pacific Rise (EPR) is different from that of the EPR at the time of the formation of the Pacific Plate at 170 Ma.Glass recovered from Jurassic age (170 Ma) Pacific ocean crust (Bartolini and Larson, 2001, doi:10.1130/0091-7613(2001)029<0735:PMATPS>2.0.CO;2) at Ocean Drilling Program Hole 801C records higher Fe8 (10.77 wt%) and marginally lower Na8 (2.21 wt%) compared to the modern EPR, suggesting deeper melting and a temperature of initial melting that was 60°C hotter than today.Trace element ratios such as La/Sm and Zr/Y, on the other hand, show remarkable similarities to the modern southern EPR, indicating that Site 801 was not generated on a hotspot-influenced ridge and that mantle composition has changed little in the Pacific over the past 170 Ma. Our results are consistent with the observation that mid-ocean ridge basalts (MORBs) older than 80 Ma were derived by higher temperature melting than are modern MORBs (Humler et al., 1999, doi:10.1016/S0012-821X(99)00218-6), which may have been a consequence of the Cretaceous superplume event in the Pacific.Site 801 predates the formation of Pacific oceanic plateaus and 801C basalt chemistry indicates that higher temperatures of mantle melting beneath Pacific ridges preceded the initiation of the superplume.
