Abstract:
This paper shows that the mineral composition of dolerites affects their specific paramagnetic susceptibility. Two methods for calculating the specific paramagnetic susceptibility were proposed: one used the thermomagnetic analysis (TMA) curve and the other the Mi(B) curve. There was no significant difference between the results obtained with these two approaches. Application of the proposed methods to dolerite core samples showed that specific paramagnetic susceptibility can be used as the basis for correlation of sills. The composition of titanomagnetites in dolerites can be used as an accessory parameter.
