Abstract
Measurement of natural, thermal, and saturation remanent magnetism and their stability with respect to alternating field and thermal demagnetization of concentrates of plagioclase, pyroxene, and oxide (80 percent ilmenite, 20 percent magnetite) separated from a sample of diabase from the Triassic Lambertville (N. J.) sill, reveal that the stable remanence of the whole rock is associated with the silicates and especially with the plagioclase. Measurement of Curie point and saturation moment of the feldspar indicates the presence of about 0.3 percent Fe ion in solid solution and 0.004 percent pure magnetite as a discrete phase. This magnetite cannot be identified microscopically, nor with an electron probe, and it is inferred to be present as submicroscopic, single domain particles.
