Refimprove date March 2007 The Mamaku Ranges are a range of rugged hills in the North Island of New Zealand . Located to the west of Lake Rotorua and north of Lake Taupo , they lie to the immediate south of the Kaimai Range and can be thought of as an extension of it, in much the same way that the Kaimai Range can be considered an extension of the Coromandel Range . The hills terminate in the south with the valley of the Waikato River . At their highest, the Mamaku Ranges rise to over 600 metres, and much of the high ground within the hills forms a plateau. The range is extensively forested, with the Kaimai Mamaku State Forest and Kinleith Forest both covering a considerable part of them. The forest includes Agathis australis kauri trees growing at the far southern limit of their natural range. coord 38.1755916667 S 175.976258333 E source dewiki region NZ WKO type mountain format dms display title Category Geography of the Bay of Plenty Region Category Forests of New Zealand Category Mountain ranges of New Zealand BayofPlenty geo stub Waikato geo stub de Mamaku Ranges ... more details

The tree is a remnant of the ancient subtropical rainforest that once grew on the North Auckland Peninsula . Other giant kauri are found nearby, notably Te Matua Ngahere . T ne Mahuta is the most famous tree in New Zealand, along with Te Matua Ngahere. It is thought it was discovered by Westerners, as it was already known to Maori and identified in the 1920s when contractors surveyed the present State Highway 12 route through the forest. In 1928 Nicholas Yakas and other bushmen, who were building the road, also identified the tree. According to the Maori creation myth, T ne is the son of Rangi and Papa Ranginui the sky father and Rangi and Papa Papatuanuku the earth mother. T ne separates his parents from their marital embrace until his father the sky is high above mother earth. T ne then sets about clothing his mother with vegetation. The birds and the trees of the forest are regarded as T ne s children.

A higher Kb value means the solvent is more aggressive or active in the ability to dissolve certain materials. Mild solvents have low scores in the tens and twenties powerful solvents like chlorinated solvents and High Sol 10 or High Sol 15 naphthenic aromatic solvents have ratings in that are in the low hundreds. This contrasts with the cleaning horsepower measurement of water based cleaners and degreasers, which is the pH and which is the concentration of hydrogen ions in such a solution. Since solvent based cleaners do not use water, they cannot have a pH. So they are commonly classified by their Kb value. In terms of the test itself, the kauri butanol value Kb of a chemical shows the maximum amount of the hydrocarbon that can be added to a solution of Agathis australis Uses kauri resin a thick, gum like material in butyl alcohol without causing cloudiness. Since kauri resin is readily soluble in butyl alcohol but not in most hydrocarbon solvents, the resin solution will tolerate only a certain amount of dilution.

It can be usually distinguished by its juvenile foliage, which often remains on the lower branches until the tree grows to approximately 10 metres tall. The tree ultimately reaches a height of about 25 metres, with a trunk up to 1 metre thick and grey brown bark that has a rough, pustular texture. The pale reddish brown wood is strong and durable. The leaves of the younger trees and on the lower branches of the adults are narrow and to some extent leathery, up to 4 cm long and 3 mm wide. The adult leaves are thick, scale like and much smaller the leaves overlap and lie appressed to the branchlets in 4 rows.
