Ferromagnetic fraction of Cretaceous and Cenozoic sediments at DSDP Holes 72-515B and 72-516F

Listed in PANGAEA

Investigation of the ferromagnetic fraction of sediments from the Brazil Basin and Rio Grande Rise shows that its main constituents are magnetite and hematite.

Description

The magnetite is detrital, but the hematite is both detrital and chemical in origin. Magnetite is the main carrier of the natural remanent magnetization (NRM); therefore, the NRM is detrital remanent magnetization (DRM).

In a number of cases, the change of magnetic parameters along the stratigraphic column permits some refinement of the previously defined boundaries of the lithologic units.
