Paleomagnetic Correlation and Ages of Basalt Flow Groups in Coreholes At and Near the Naval Reactors Facility, Idaho National Laboratory, Idaho

Paleomagnetic inclination and polarity studies were conducted on subcore samples from eight coreholes located at and near the Naval Reactors Facility (NRF), Idaho National Laboratory (INL). These studies were used to characterize and inclinations in adjacent coreholes. Results were used to extend the subsurface geologic framework at the INL previously derived from paleomagnetic data for south INL coreholes. Geologic framework studies are used in conceptual and transport. Sample handling and demagnetization protocols are described, as well as the paleomagnetic data averaging process.
