“…Similarly, igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary fragments reworked from the Inner and Outer Zones have been significant components of turbidites in the lower forearc (i.e., trench slope, trench-slope basins and trench) since the Miocene (De Rosa et al, 1986;Fergusson, 2003;Underwood et al, 2003;Underwood and Fergusson, 2005;Underwood and Moore, 2012;Clift et al, 2013;Usman et al, 2014). However, to date, constraints on the provenance of turbidites have been restricted to the modal composition of sandstones (e.g., Fergusson, 2003;Usman et al, 2014) and one zircon study (Clift et al, 2013). Although there is evidence that the morphology of the trench slope controlled distribution of turbidites during the Neogene (e.g., Underwood et al, 2003), patterns of detrital sedimentation associated with formation of the forearc basin remain to be determined.…”
