In this article, the results of the rock-magnetic measurements (magnetic susceptibility and its anisotropy before and after the heating of rocks, magnetic saturation) and paleomagnetic studies of the Lower Syzran Subformation (Paleocene) in the Peschanyi Umyot section (Saratov, Russia) are discussed. The section is composed of weakly magnetic silicites and has the paleomagnetic parameters that are suitable for magnetostratigraphic purposes. The presence of a magnetic zone with predominantly reve
