A paleomagnetic study of ca. 580 Ma volcanics near Grand Bank, Avalon zone of Newfoundland, and implications for true polar wander in the ediacaran
Paleomagnetic studies suggest that Laurentia moved from the equator to the pole and then back again within ~60 Ma during the Ediacaran. Hypotheses to explain the large 90⁰ apparent oscillations include unreliable paleomagnetic data and/or unreliable dating and complex magnetic field behaviour. Inert...
