Marine magnetic anomalies have been utilized to understand geomagnetic field reversals and fluctuations, providing valuable insights into Earth's tectonics, including the origin of the ocean floor. The accumulation of magnetic data at the sea surface and advances in near-bottom surveys provide further insights into oceanic lithosphere processes such as crustal accretion, faulting, hydrothermal circulation, and water-rock reaction. However, the relationship between the anomaly signal and geological ground truth remains poorly understood. In particular, rock magnetic data of oceanic lower crustal and mantle are limited due to sampling difficulties.
Here, we present new rock magnetic data studied on oceanic core complexes in the Philippine Sea. The samples were collected from abyssal outcrops of Mado, Tosa, and Sanuki Megamullions during Japanese research expeditions aboard the R/V Yokosuka and R/V Hakuho-maru; YK18-07, YK19-04S, YK20-18S, YK21-06S, YK22-18S, YK23-05S, KH-07-02, KH-18-02. Most samples were collected using the submersible Shinkai6500. Part of the basaltic rocks are highly magnetized with a natural remanent magnetization of up to 25 A/m, known as the primary magnetic source of the oceanic lithosphere. Results from ultramafic rocks show a negative correlation between grain density and magnetic properties. Furthermore, it is evident that highly serpentinized peridotite with low density is mostly magnetic with strong remanent magnetization (up to 6 A/m), but also includes a variety of weak to intermediate properties. Results from the gabbroic rocks indicate that oxide gabbro has high magnetic susceptibility, and its induced magnetization (up to 10 A/m) may significantly contribute to marine magnetic anomalies.
