The IRD-rich Heinrich Event (HE) layers of gravity core GeoB18530-1, retrieved from the SE Grand Banks slope of Newfoundland, coincide with bulk magnetic susceptibility maxima. This positive correlation of IRD content and susceptibility is widely observed and at first glance contradictive, since det...
