The correlation potential of magnetic susceptibility and outcrop gamma-ray logs at Tournaisian-Viséan boundary sections in Western Europe

Original language description

We have measured five sections at the Tournaisian-Viséan (Tn/V) boundary in western Europe, using gamma-ray spectrometry /GRS/ and magnetic susceptibility /MS/ proxies. The aim was to trace correlatable log patterns across the flanks of the London-Brabant Massif from eastern Ireland to western Germany. Both GRS and MS logging proved useful for long-distance (up to ~1000 km) correlation. A late Tournaisian regression, a sequence boundary at the Tn/V boundary, early Viséan lowstand systems tract and an overlying transgressive to regressive succession can be identified from the GRS and MS logs. Sea-level fluctuations around the Tn/V boundary were synchronous and traceable on the flanks of the London-Brabant Massif. The GRS-based logging has a greater correlation potential than MS. The MS signal shows an increasing trend during transgression and a decreasing during regression, which is opposite to the MS paradigm from shallow-water carbonate platform settings.
