Paleomagnetic studies on the serpentinized peridotites recovered from ODP Hole 670A were conducted in three laboratories. High NRM intensities and magnetic susceptibilities were observed in the serpentinized peridotites, which suggest that the remanent and the induced magnetizations of the peridotites cannot be neglected as a source of the magnetic anomalies observed at sea surface. The in situ low inclination of the magnetization indicated from the laboratory studies suggests that the peridotite body has been subjected to a large-scale deformation after the acquisition of the magnetization.
