Abstract
Abstract Proterozoic hyperite dolerites and syenites from the Scanian part of the Protogine Zone (Sveconorwegian Front) have the same characteristic remanence direction after alternating field demagnetization. The direction is D = 297.2°, I = −83.8°, α95 = 3.7°, k = 114.6, which gives a palaeopole at 49°S, 211°E, dp = 7.1°, d m = 8.3°. The pole position, and a majority of K-Ar datings on the rocks studied, implies that they became remagnetized during the Sveconorwegian regeneration. This new remanence was not affected by a later intrusion of a dolerite swarm in the intersecting Fennoscandian Border zone. A tentative apparent polar wander path for the Sveconorwegian is presented.
