Jean Charcot allow us to obtain new structural and geochemical data for the Okinawa, North Fiji and Lau basins. Taken together, the structural and geochemical data illustrate a difference in evolution stages of these sites. The less evolved stage is represented by the Okinawa basin, where accretion is evidence only by volcanic intrusion into a thinned continental crust. The most evolved stage is illustrated in the North Fiji basin, where the present-day accretion can be directly compared to the East Pacific Ridge. The Lau basin displays an intermediate stage with a complex system of accretionary ridges. This difference in the evolution stage is translated in the nature and geochemistry of the rocks.
