Scientific paper

The allochthonous Old Red Sandstone of Kvamshesten, western Norway, records polyphase orogenic deformation, and palaeomagnetic results from both the Devonian sediments and mylonites associated with the basal thrust define a syn- (to post-) tectonic magnetization with D = 218°, I = +3° and α95 = 9.7°. The corresponding pole position (lat. 21°S, long. 324°E) suggests a Late Devonian/Early Carboniferous magnetization age (Solundian), and probably dates the time of thrust movements.
