Magnetic and elastic anisotropies were investigated in rocks of the Nízký Jeseník Mountains (northeast Bohemian Massif) ranging in lithology from almost unmetamorphosed sediments, through slate, to phyllite, and showing a range of structural styles from sedimentary, through spaced and slaty cleavage, to metamorphic schistosity. In unmetamorphosed and undeformed sedimentary rocks, both the anisotropies display close relationships to the sedimentary fabric. During the development of the spaced and slaty cleavage they are gradually re-oriented into the attitudes of the deformational fabrics, and in the rocks with metamorphic schistosity they are fully related to the deformational fabric elements, which can be oriented in a very different way from the original sedimentary structures.
The magnetic anisotropy is mostly due to the preferred orientation of phyllosilicates generated during very weak regional metamorphism, and subordinately due to the preferred orientation of magnetite. The elastic anisotropy is probably controlled by the preferred orientation of phyllosilicates and by the existence of oriented systems of microcracks.
