The samples were taken from volcanic rocks erupted between Jurassic and Quaternary. Detailed analysis of all samples has been carried out with progressive thermal demagnetization. A characteristic remanence (ChRM) with higher unblocking temperature has been isolated from all samples. The pole position from the middle Jurassic is at 52.5°N, 187 9°E ( dp =3.7°, dm =6.5°); the directions of the ChRM of Cretaceous correspond to a paleopole at 69.7°N, 211.6°E ( dp =9.8°, dm =15.9°); the Quaternary pole from the Pulu site is at 79.9°N, 183.1°E ( dp =1.6°, dm = 2.4°). On the basis of these new paleomagnetic data, tectonic evolution of Tarim block is presented.展开更多
