The Taimyr fold belt, Arctic Siberia: timing of prefold remagnetisation and regional tectonics
Late Precambrian and Palaeozoic platform sediments from the Central-South Taimyr Peninsula (Arctic Siberia) are all remagnetised. The remagnetisation is prefold and is related to thermal remagnetisation caused by Taimyr Trap magmatism. The remagnetisation age is estimated to 220-230 Ma and, hence, is considerably younger than the ca. 251 Ma age for the main body of Siberian Trap flood basalts. The
