Samples of oil shales of Autunian age from the Krkonoše (Riesengebirge) Piedmont basin, northern Bohemia, which represent rocks with fossil micro-organic matter in the initial stage of carbonification, were subjected to palaeomagnetic investigations. The palaeomagnetic data obtained from these rocks are fully in accordance with those derived previously on rocks of the red-bed facies in the same area. Preliminary results obtained on Lower Carboniferous coal-bearing shales collected from the Upper Silesian basin, Ostrava-Karviná region, indicate also that these rocks, characterized by a higher degree of carbonification, are suitable for palaeomagnetic investigations. These results with those of laboratory carbonification indicate that such rocks as bituminous rocks, black shales, oil shales, coal-bearing shales or generally rocks containing micro-organic matter at different stages of natural carbonification are worthy of being studied palaeomagnetically.
