The results of magnetic survey at Mt. Riiser-Larsen, Amundsen Bay, Enderby Land, East Antarctica, by the 42nd Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition

The summer party of the 42nd Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition (2000-2001) carried out magnetic surveys in the Mt Riiser-Larsen region the Napiei Complex, Enderby Land, East Antarctica We found strong magnetic anomalies of magnitude 7000nT resulting from a metamorphosed banded non formation (me...

Description
Summary:The summer party of the 42nd Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition (2000-2001) carried out magnetic surveys in the Mt Riiser-Larsen region the Napiei Complex, Enderby Land, East Antarctica We found strong magnetic anomalies of magnitude 7000nT resulting from a metamorphosed banded non formation (meta-BIF) running in felsic gneiss of the representative formation The geological stmcture of the strike, fault and dolente dyke under the moraine, lake and ice sheet are inferred from the lineation and discontinuity of the anomalies The meta-BIF irradiates the strong magnetic field it is useful to clarify the geological stiuctuie of the Napiei Complex undei the Antarctic ice sheet
