Köppen climate type:
6000 km² shield built of succession of lavas up to 330 m thick of tholeiite, alkali basalt and hawaiite; there are dikes and plugs of similar composition. Felsic lavas and minor intrusions are scattered across the Buckland area, with c. 60 intrusive bodies concentrated in the western part. Some cone sheets with half a dozen nephelinite plugs are known.

Geochronology
Mineralization age: Oligocene : 27 MaImportant note: This table is based only on rock and mineral ages recorded on mindat.org for this locality and is not necessarily a complete representation of the geochronology, but does give an indication of possible mineralization events relevant to this locality. As more age information is added this table may expand in the future. A break in the table simply indicates a lack of data entered here, not necessarily a break in the geologic sequence. Grey background entries are from different, related, localities.
