Diagenetic alteration of magnetic minerals occurs in all sedimentary environments and
tends to be severe in reducing environments. Magnetic minerals provide useful information …

In several recent published studies, paleomagnetic results from greigite-bearing sediments
reveal characteristic remanences that are anti-parallel to those carried by coexisting detrital …

Reduction–oxidation (redox) reactions occur during burial because sediments contain
reactive mixtures of oxidised and reduced components. Diagenetic chemical reactions …

In many anoxic sedimentary environments, the onset of sulfate reduction, and pyritization of
detrital iron-bearing minerals, leads to a precipitous decline in magnetic mineral …

Magnetite occurs widely in natural environments in both inorganic and biogenic forms.
Discrimination of the origin of magnetite has important implications, from searching for past …

Chemical remagnetization is a very common phenomenon in sedimentary rocks and
developing a greater understanding of the mechanisms has several benefits. Acquisition of …

Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) synthesize magnetite and greigite crystals under low oxygen
conditions in the water column or uppermost sediment (greigite‐producing bacteria are …

We have developed a quantification method that uses mainly room temperature rock
magnetic measurements to calculate concentrations of ferrimagnetic particles in sediments …

We present a novel technique for quantitative unmixing of primary and secondary
ferrimagnetic minerals in sediments. Hysteresis and high-resolution first-order reversal curve …

Rock‐magnetic measurements of two sediment cores from the Madeira Abyssal Plain
(MAP), north Atlantic, are used to investigate post‐depositional changes in the …
