Paleomagnetism of the dike systems in Finland IV: Remanent magnetization of the dolerite and related dikes in the Åland archipelago

The dikes of the area can be divided into three groups having different directions of remanent magnetization after demagnetization in the AC field. One of these groups has a direction which coincides with that measured for the Jotnian dolerites in the Satakunta and Vaasa archipelago. The direction o...

Description
Summary:The dikes of the area can be divided into three groups having different directions of remanent magnetization after demagnetization in the AC field. One of these groups has a direction which coincides with that measured for the Jotnian dolerites in the Satakunta and Vaasa archipelago. The direction of the second group differs but slightly from this and the third one has a reversed orientation. The age relations and the origin of the magnetization are discussed.
