Reduction–oxidation (redox) reactions occur during burial because sediments contain
reactive mixtures of oxidised and reduced components. Diagenetic chemical reactions …

In environmental magnetism, rock and mineral magnetic techniques are used to investigate
the formation, transportation, deposition, and postdepositional alterations of magnetic …

Pyrite framboid formation may be the result of four consecutive processes:(1) nucleation and
growth of initial iron monosulfide microcrystals;(2) reaction of the microcrystals to greigite …

Rock magnetic studies of complex systems that contain mixtures of magnetic minerals or
mixed grain size distributions have demonstrated the need for a better method of …

Greigite (Fe3S4) is an authigenic ferrimagnetic mineral that grows as a precursor to pyrite
during early diagenetic sedimentary sulfate reduction. It can also grow at any time when …

Magnetic Stratigraphy is the most comprehensive book written in the English language on
the subject of magnetic polarity stratigraphy and time scales. This volume presents the …

New data are presented here that document the previously poorly known magnetic
characteristics of sedimentary greigite (Fe3S4). Several diagnostic magnetic properties can …

Detailed magnetostratigraphic studies of Late Neogene siliciclastic sediments of the
Awatere Group, South Island, New Zealand (41° 45′ S, 174° 05′ E) have revealed a wide …

In environmental magnetism, the properties of magnetic minerals are used as proxy
parameters for many purposes. Examples are paleoclimate analysis, paleoceanographic …

The magnetic properties of low field susceptibility (χ), frequency dependent susceptibility
(χfd), and susceptibility of anhysteretic remanent magnetisation (χARM) are used to define …
