Siberia and Laurentia have been suggested as near neighbors in Proterozoic supercontinents Nuna and Rodinia, but paleomagnetic evidence has been sparse and ambiguous. Here we present four new paleomagnetic poles from undeformed Paleo-Mesoproterozoic (lower Riphean) sedimentary rocks and mafic intrusions of the northwestern Anabar uplift in northern Siberia. Combining these results with other Proterozoic data from Siberia and Laurentia, we propose a tight juxtaposition of those two blocks (Euler parameters 77°, 098°, 137° for Anabar to North America) spanning the interval 1.7-0.7 Ga, constituting a
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
