Abstract

WE have recently measured the direction of magnetization of two dolerite sheets and ten basic dykes in the Wright Valley (lat. 77.5° S., long. 161.5° E.) of South Victoria Land. The dykes intrude the basement granite in the area but do not cut the overlying Beacon Sandstone. The dolerite sheets are intruded into the basement and in some places cut the Beacon Sandstone. They post-date the dykes and the sandstone. The directions and relevant statistics are given in Table 1.
