An integrated paleomagnetic, rock magnetic, and geochemical study of the Marcellus shale in the Valley and Ridge province in Pennsylvania and West Virginia

An integrated paleomagnetic, rock magnetic, and diagenetic study of the Devonian Marcellus Subgroup from threefolds in the Valley and Ridge province in Pennsylvania and West Virginia indicates that the unit contains an intermediate temperature chemical remanent magnetization (CRM) with south‐southeast declinations and shallow negative inclinations residing in pyrrhotite and a CRM with more southerly declinations and shallow positive inclinations...
