Paleomagnetic study of the Great Foum Zguid dyke (southern Morocco): A positive contact test related to metasomatic processes
TL;DR: In this paper, the Foum Zguid dyke was investigated and a positive contact test was obtained, but it was mainly related with Chemical/Crystalline Remanent Magnetization due to metasomatic processes in the host-rocks during magma intrusion and cooling, and not only with Thermo-Remanent magnetization as ordinarily assumed in standard studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Palaeomagnetism in the Sines massif (SW Iberia) revisited: evidences for Late Cretaceous hydrothermal alteration and associated partial remagnetization
Paulo Ribeiro,Pedro Silva,Pedro Silva,Patrícia Moita,Zuzana Kratinová,Fernando O. Marques,Bernard Henry +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors revisited the palaeomagnetism of the Sines massif (∼76 Ma) in the southwestern Iberian Margin (Portugal), complemented by a comprehensive study of the magnetic mineralogy by means of rock magnetic measurements and petrographic observations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multidisciplinary characterization of Quaternary mass movement deposits in the Portimão Bank (Gulf of Cadiz, SW Iberia)
Pedro Silva,Pedro Silva,Cristina Roque,Teresa Drago,Teresa Drago,A. Belén,Bernard Henry,E. Gemma,A. Lopes,A. Lopes,Nieves López-González,David Casas,Filipa Naughton,Filipa Naughton,Juan Tomás Vázquez +14 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a multidisciplinary study of the seismic stratigraphy, sedimentology, geochemistry and magnetism is presented to characterize the Quaternary mass movement deposits (MMD) and the associated deformation in the Portimao Bank (Gulf of Cadiz, offshore SW Iberia).
