Abstract/Notes | SummaryThe validity of using Devonian palaeomagnetic data to determine a post-Devonian displacement along the Great Glen Fault is assessed and it is concluded that there is no statistically significant difference between previous magnetic vectors E and W of the fault and thus no palaeomagnetic evidence for a large sinistral displacement in post-Devonian times. New palaeomagnetic results are presented which suggest that the Devonian red sandstones in the Orcadian Basin have such a complex diagenetic and palaeomagnetic history that they will then be unsuitable for such tectonic evaluations in the foreseeable future, although palaeomagnetic dating can be used to resolve some diagenetic-sedimentary features. |
