Abstract

A palaemagnetic survey, comprising collections mostly from the oldest outcrops on five of The Canary Islands, has revealed stratigraphically valuable normal and reversed polarity lavas except on the westernmost island of Hierro, where only normal polarities were encountered. The palaeomagnetic data suggest that the Hierro samples are younger than those collected from the islands, and that the Lanzarote outcrops are the oldest sampled.
