Scientific paper

Consistent age relationships between oppositely magnetized dykes of the 2.45 Ga Matachewan dyke swarm suggest that only a single magnetic field reversal occurred during the period of igneous activity. The magnetic field throughout most of this time was characterized by a SSW declination and shallow negative inclination but reversed toward the waning stages of magmatism. The new paleomagnetic data provide the oldest known magnetic reversal for which the relative reversal sense is known.
