It represents a continental crustal fragment located at the boundary between the Sunda oceanic subduction system and the Australian arc-continent collision system, separating the Savu Basin from the Lombok Basin. New data on magmatic rocks collected from Sumba are presented in this paper, including bulk rock major and trace element chemistry, petrography and whole rock and mineral 40K-40Ar ages. Three distinct calc-alkaline magmatic episodes have been recorded during Cretaceous-Paleogene, all of them characterized by similar rock assemblages (i.e. pyroclastic rocks, basaltic-andesitic lava flows and granodioritic intrusions). They are: (i) the Santonian-Campanian episode (86-77 Ma) represented by volcanic and plutonic rock exposures in the Masu Complex in Eastern Sumba: (ii) the Maastrichtian-Thanetian episode (71-56 Ma) represented by the volcanic and plutonic units of Sendikari Bay, Tengairi Bay and the Tanadaro Complex in Central Sumba; and (iii) the Lutetian-Rupelian episode (42-31 Ma) of which the products are exposed at Lamboya and Jawila in the western part of Sumba. No Neogene magmatic activity has been recorded. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.
