Rock magnetism of quartz and feldspars chemically separated from pelagic red clay: a new approach to provenance study

Abstract Magnetic mineral inclusions in silicates are widespread in sediments as well as in igneous rocks. Because they are isolated from surrounding environment, they have potential to preserve original magnetic signature even in chemically altered sediments. Such inclusions may provide proxies to...
