| Magnetic mineral inclusions occur commonly within other larger mineral phases in igneous rocks and have been demonstrated to preserve important paleomagnetic signals. While the usefulness of magnetic inclusions in igneous rocks has been explored extensively, their presence in sediments has only been speculated upon. The contribution of magnetic inclusions to the magnetization of sediments, therefore, has been elusive. In this study, we use transmission electron microscope (TEM) and magnetic methods to demonstrate the widespread preservation of silicate-hosted magnetic inclusions in marine sedimentary settings. TEM analysis reveals detailed information about the microstructure, chemical composition, grain size, and spatial arrangement of nanoscale magnetic... |
