Palaeomagnetism and geochronology of mid-neoproterozoic yanbian dykes, South China: Implications for a c. 820-800 Ma true polar wander event and the reconstruction of Rodinia

We present new palaeomagnetic data from two generations of mafic dykes in the Yanbian region of the western South China Block, dated by the zircon U-Pb method at 824±6 and 806±8 Ma, respectively. The primary origin for the characteristic remanent magnetizations is supported by a positive baked conta...
