Fabric analysis of quartzites with negative magnetic ...

2018-6-14  Quartz is diamagnetic, and has a negative magnetic susceptibility of 13.4 106SI units (Tarling and Hrouda, 1993). This implies that in quartzites with positive magnetic susceptibility, there is a dominant contribution from para/ferro-magnetic minor mineral phases as compared to the major diamagnetic mineral phase (quartz).

Fabric analysis of quartzites with negative magnetic ...

Since quartz is diamagnetic and has a negative magnetic susceptibility, 11 samples of nearly pure quartzites with a negative magnetic susceptibility were chosen for this study. After performing AMS analysis, electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) analysis was done in thin sections prepared parallel to the K 1 K 3 plane of the AMS ellipsoid. Results show that in all the samples quartz SPO is sub-parallel

The effect of quartz on the magnetic anisotropy of quartzite

The magnetic susceptibility of quartz single crystals is diamagnetic (−14×10 −6 in SI units) and exhibits only very small anisotropy (mostly less than 1%); thus the susceptibility of the quartz matrix in quartzite can be regarded as virtually isotropic. Owing to the influence of the negative and isotropic susceptibility of the quartz matrix, the degree of anisotropy of quartzite, as inferred from model calculations, is higher

Histograms of measurements are a better representation of the magnetic susceptibility distribution for a given rock body than mean and standard deviation. The best effective magnetic susceptibility estimate for an outcrop can be obtained by computing themagnetic force of the measurements 3-5 m above the outcrop and finding the constant susceptibility that gives an equal integral of the force.
