Scientific paper

We have obtained paleomagnetic results from Silurian and Devonian rocks on the western margin of the North China Block (NCB), ages which previously were thought to be unrepresented throughout North China. High unblocking temperature components of magnetization isolated from both the Silurian and Devonian strata pass fold and reversal tests, suggesting that they are primary remanence. The corresponding paleopoles, at 228.4°E, 26.2°N (Silurian) and 228.7°E, 34.2°N (Devonian), imply low paleolatitude positions of North China during the middle Paleozoic, probably adjacent to east Gondwana.
