- W2127183739 abstract "To better constrain Baltica's position within Pangea, we conducted a palaeomagnetic study of Permo-Triassic dykes from the Oslo Graben, as a follow-up to an initial, but rather limited, study by Torsvik and colleagues in 1998. The age of these so-called Lunner dykes had previously been determined as ∼240 Ma in that study, but details in their analyses and new 40Ar/39Ar ages reveal that there may have been some argon loss in the initially dated dyke minerals and that a combined (weighted mean) age of 271 ± 2.7 (2σ) Myr for the dykes is preferable. We find two major components of magnetization in our samples: one carried by an Fe-sulphide (likely pyrrhotite) and the other carried by low-Ti magnetite; these magnetization components may be found together (superposed) in a given sample or they may occur apart. Micronmetre-sized crystals of Ti-Fe oxides, observed with a scanning electron microscope (SEM) show exsolution lamellae, formed upon cooling from intrusion temperatures. Assuming that the submicronmetre-sized (Ti)-magnetite grains that carry a stable remanence are of the same generation as the observed larger grains, we interpret the magnetite remanence in the dykes as of primary, thermoremanent origin. The sulphide remanence appears to be slightly younger, as seen by the SEM observations of pyrite framboids and a Fe-sulphide grain invading a Ti-magnetite grain. Moreover, the sulphide mineralization is likely of region-wide hydrothermal origin. The magnetizations carried by the pyrrhotite and magnetite have nearly identical directions and so, must be nearly of the same age. For this study, we sampled 56 sites including 39 dykes, 10 baked-contact rocks and 7 host rocks removed from the immediate dyke contacts. The dykes and the contact rocks have the same SW and up directions of magnetization, and contain the Fe-sulphide or the magnetite magnetization or both, as diagnosed by their relative unblocking temperatures. However, all the sampled carbonate and igneous host rocks far away from the dykes also have the same directions. Thus, all of the 10 originally planned contact tests are inconclusive. The new palaeopoles of this study are a few degrees apart; the magnetite pole (from dykes only, N= 25) is located at 51°N, 164°E, K= 69, A95= 3.5°, whereas the pole calculated from iron sulphide magnetic directions (all rock types, N= 20) is at 54°N, 166°E, K= 112, A95= 3.1°. All directions are of reversed polarity, suggesting that the magnetization was acquired during the Kiaman Reversed Superchron. The palaeomagnetic mean result from the magnetite-bearing sites implies a palaeolatitude of Oslo of 23°N, whereas the palaeolatitude calculated from the pyrrhotite magnetizations is 25–27°N, depending on choice of host lithologies. As noted in many previous publications, the palaeomagnetic poles for the late Palaeozoic and Early-Middle Triassic are in conflict with classical Pangea reconstructions. The poles with ages of 250 ± 10 Ma, in particular, previously showed a discrepancy of some 25° or more, when the Gondwana and Laurussia continents are restored to their juxtapositions in the Pangea-A fit, before the opening of the Atlantic Ocean. Proposed solutions to this conundrum have been controversial, involving doubts about (1) the geocentric coaxial dipole field model, (2) the reliability of the palaeomagnetic results or their ages, or (3) the validity of the Pangea-A reconstruction, leading to proposals of a Pangea B reconstruction in which Gondwana is displaced some 3500 km to the east with respect to Laurussia. The significance of our new result for this Pangea controversy resides in its improved age within an early Guadelupian (mid to late Permian) time interval where few results exist from well-dated igneous rocks in either Baltica or Laurentia. There are quite a few results from sedimentary rocks, but these may be suspected to suffer inclination shallowing, and are therefore less suitable to settle a palaeolatitudinal argument. Our new result of the magnetite magnetization, granted it is primary and acquired at about 270 Ma, combined with a new ∼265 Ma result from Argentina and selected other poles from igneous rocks, leaves enough room for the north–south configuration of Pangea A at 270 Ma and avoids the overlap between Baltica and Gondwana that necessitated Pangea B, at least for the Late Permian." @default.
