Paleomagnetism and U–Pb age of the 2.4 Ga Erayinia mafic dykes in the south-western Yilgarn, Western Australia: Paleogeographic and geodynamic implications

We present results from a paleomagnetic study of the previously undated Erayinia dykes intruding the south-western Yilgarn Craton. The U–Pb TIMs baddeleyite age of these dykes is now 2401 ± 1 Ma, which is about 10 m.y. younger than the 2418–2410 Ma Widgiemooltha dyke swarm. The paleomagnetic study i...
