摘要
A detailed palaeomagnetic investigation was performed on Eocene and Oligocene core samples from 4 deep boreholes (1-3.1 km) from the Chalkidiki peninsula. Both low field magnetic susceptibility and intensity of the natural remanent magnetization (NRM) indicate rather weakly magnetised materials. 134 samples have been subjected to either stepwise thermal or alternating field demagnetization. Both procedures indicate that the NRM is carried by magnetite. Isothermal remanent magnetization (IRM) acquisition curves suggest the dominance of magnetite. Finally, 12 thin sections were studied in order to more precisely characterise the magnetic mineralogy of the samples. This investigation reveals the presence of magnetite and pyrite. In general, the observed inclinations of characteristic remanence in these rocks are much lower than expected inclinations but converge with those obtained from formations on land.
