Abstract
Rock magnetic properties of 50 specimens from a continuous section through the lower
layers of the Troodos ophiolite in the CY-4 drill hole, reveal an alteration and palaeomagnetic
history consistent with ocean spreading. Anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility (AMS), low
temperature demagnetization (LTD), high temperature demagnetization (TD), distinct Curie and
Neel temperatures and hysteresis were the main rock magnetic techniques and were supplemented
by thin section microscopy.
