The Lord Howe Seamount Chain of which Gifford Guyot is an eruptive centre, and part of a pair of coral-capped guyots, formed during the Miocene.[1][2] The Gifford Marine Park is co-located off the Queensland coast near Brisbane. <mapframe width="280" height="280" latitude="-30.0" longitude="158.0" zoom="4" align="right" text="Seamounts of the Lord Howe Seamount Chain with Gifford Guyot in deeper red (clicking on the map enables mouse over)"> [

Geology
The Gifford guyots are two flat‐topped basaltic[3] seamounts, now caped with carbonate sediments with the larger Gifford Guyot dated at 15.6 million years ago[3] but the smaller unnamed seamount of unknown age. They both raise from an abyssal plain Шаблон:Convert below sea level to generally flat summits that are about Шаблон:Convert below sea level. This summit plateau is about Шаблон:Convert for the unnamed guyot), and Шаблон:Convert in area for Gifford Guyot itself.[4]
