| Summary: | This article presents the results of a detailed paleomagnetic study of five sections of the Permian-Triassic sedimentary rocks from the southeastern part of the Volga-Ural anteclise in the East European Platform (Orenburg region, Russia): Boevaya Gora, Vyazovka, Sambulak, Krasnogor, and Vozdvizhenka. The magnetic fabric determined by magnetic susceptibility anisotropy indicates that the rocks accumulated under the conditions of intense hydrodynamic activity. This makes it possible to reconstruct a predominantly submeridional transport of detrital material. The rocks of the Boevaya Gora section have a bipolar distribution of the characteristic component of their remanent magnetization, while other sections show a reversed polarity. In the Vyazovka section, the E/I method was used to calculate the inclination shallowing coefficient of the rocks (f = 0.79). The regional fold test yielded positive results, suggesting that the rocks of the studied sections were displaced after the deposition. For each section, paleomagnetic poles were calculated, with the poles of the Boevaya Gora and Vyazovka sections being the most reliable. The mean paleomagnetic pole coordinates of the studied sections, except the Sambulak section, are as follows: slat = 51.7°, slong = 55.8°, n = 4, plat = 48.5°, plong = 173.4°, α95 = 3.4°, paleolat = 23.4°. |
