Paleomagnetic directions from the Eocene Tillamook Volcanic Series of the Oregon Coast Range
point 460 clockwise from the expected Eocene field direction. Potassium argon dating of six dikes and
flows from this formation yields a mean age of 44.3 ± 0.6 m.y. These results establish that the Oregon
coastal block...
