Abstract
The magnetic susceptibility anisotropy of specimens of a glacial till is described and used to define a magnetic fabric. This is compared with the fabric established by small particle and stone orientation. The maximum susceptibility direction is shown to be similar to the preferred direction of the long axes of particles and stones.Keywords
