Vent Field Name ID |
Activity | Tectonic Setting | Region | Latitude | Longitude | Maximum or Single Reported Depth | Year and How Discovered |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Conical Seamount | inactive | arc volcano | Tabar-Feni Arc | -3.2500 | 152.6600 | 1050 | 1998 TV grab survey determined inactive |
| Edison Seamount | active, inferred | arc volcano | Tabar-Feni Arc | -3.3100 | 152.5800 | 1450 | 1994 and 1998 TV grab sampling did not confirm hydrothermal activity |
| Luise Harbor, Lihir Island | active, confirmed | arc volcano | Tabar-Feni Arc | -3.1167 | 152.6500 | 30 | 1990 or earlier |
| New World Seamount | active, inferred | arc volcano | Tabar-Feni Arc | -2.8333 | 152.5333 | 1200 | 2000 or earlier (cruise FR04/00 implies that they already suspected hydrothermal activity); 1994 seamount discovered |
