The magnetic fabric of pre-Cambrian and Devonian crystalline rocks of the Hrub¿ Jesen¿k Mountains and of Lower Carboniferous sedimentary rocks of the N¿zk¿ Jesenik Mountains is predominantly deformational in origin. The orientations of the tectonic magnetic fabric elements are similar in all rocks and geological units investigated. At least one strong deformation phase affected both the sedimentary and crystalline complexes, overprinting the original depositional magnetic fabric in sedimentary rocks as well as earlier deformational magnetic fabrics in crystalline rocks. The overprinted magnetic fabric is probably of Variscan origin. ¿ American Geophysical Union 1993
