- Аннотация: We present paleomagnetic data acquired on 276 samples from 24 Mesoproterozoic (ca 1132 Ma) postkinematic gabbro–dolerite dykes in the Bunger Hills (Queen Mary Land, East Antarctica). In a stereogram, the mean directions of the high-temperature components of natural remanent magnetization from the dyke samples plot in two antipodal clusters; the reversal test is positive. The primary nature of the obtained components is also confirmed by a positive contact test between a dyke and the Paz Cove stock-like metagabbro intrusion (ca 1170 Ma). The obtained paleomagnetic pole (Plat = –21.6° Plong = 268.9° A95 = 5.8° N = 24) coincides with a pole determined earlier for roughly coeval volcanic rocks from Coats Land (ca 1112 Ma) and is quite close to the pole obtained for mafic rocks in the Grunehogna Craton in western Queen Maud Land (ca 1130 Ma). The most probable interpretation of all available paleomagnetic data is the joint movement within a single block of Mawson cratons and the Coats Land block, starting from the turn of 1110 Ma. The opening and closing of the supposed oceanic basins between these blocks at a later time is a much less likely event, it is possible if the paleomagnetic pole and the rotation pole of these blocks coincide. The rigid tectonic connection between the Mawson cratons and the Coates Land from the end of the Mesoproterozoic to the present time contradicts the assumption about the opening and closing of the hypothetical Shackleton paleoocean separating these cratons, and confirms the assumption about the formation of Gondwana as a result of collision processes of the Kuung time (580–520 Ma) during the collision of the paleocontinents Congo–India–Enderby Land and Kalahari–Mawson–Australia. The data obtained make the paleotectonic reconstructions of Rodinia with the participation of East Antarctica more substantiated at the turn of 1110 Ma and at the same time indicate the need to correct the existing models of the collapse of Rodinia and the amalgamation of Gondwana in the Neoproterozoic and Early Paleozoic. The present pole is the third reliable paleomagnetic definition for the Precambrian of East Antarctica.
