A petromagnetic and paleomagnetic study of sediments of the Tarkhanian Regional Stage of the Skelya section (Kerch Peninsula, East Paratethys) has been conducted. Titanomagnetite is the main carrier of the natural remanent magnetization (NRM) in the Argunian beds of the Tarkhanian Regional Stage; the Terskian and Kuvinian beds contain Fe sulfide (monoclinic pyrrhotite and/or greigite) in addition to titanomagnetite. The paleomagnetic fold test directions of NRM of the Argunian sequences is posit
