Paleomagnetism of the Middle Proterozoic Mount Nelson Formation: evidence for a regional remagnetization event in the Late Precambrian of the Cordillera
Abstract
Chemical and thermal demagnetization of 92 specimens from the Mount Nelson Formation (uppermost Purcell Supergroup) in the Purcell Mountains of southeastern British Columbia yields two distinct directional groups. MN-A, found by thermal and chemical demagnetization, has a mean direction of D = 274°, I = 19° (α
