Abstract

CONSIDERABLE refinements have been made recently to Palaeozoic magnetic reversal stratigraphy. Here, we present evidence of a previously unrecognised rapid field change of positive polarity during the Upper part of the Kiaman Magnetic Interval. This is recorded in the Upper Permian Marl Slate, a well-known stratigraphic marker horizon and should be of considerable value to future palaeomagnetic and stratigraphic studies.
