Abstract
The importance of Petromagnetism as a new science and the state of the researches
in this field in the Romanian People's Republic are emphasized.
The history of the discovery of the anomalies of reverse magnetisation known
so far on the territory of the R.P.R. is also described. From the six anomalies
of this kind, that are known, one is located in the Neogene eruptive zone of
the Caliman Mountains, the rest of five being located in the Metalliferous
Mountains. There is also given the map of the characteristic sections of each
anomaly, as well as a general map with their location. There has been noticed
that all the anomalies of reverse magnetisation are located on the peripheries
of the Neogene eruptive zone. The author points out some peculiar general and
particular features of these anomalies, which can be of use for the future
researches in this field.
The existence of other classes of special cases of magnetisation in the Neogene
eruptive rocks from the Metalliferous Mountains, pointed out by the author,
is also recorded. These cases are also exemplified graphically.
