Environmental magnetism of a paleosoil in the Lujan Formation (Luján, Buenos Aires Province), comparison with other areas in the province and palaeoclimatic considerations

An environmental magnetic study of mainly fluvial "postpampean sediments" assigned to the Lujan Formation (Luján, Buenos Aires Province, Argentina) was carried out. The results obtained suggest a depletion of detrital ferromagnetic minerals during the pedogenetic processes. A characteristi...
