خلاصه	Paleomagnetism analysis is the study of ancient magnetic properties of rocks, measuring fossil magnetization to determine paleomagnetic field history and assign geological ages. Pioneered by Brunhes (1906) and systematized by Tauxe (2010), this method reveals geomagnetic reversals, polar wander paths, and paleomagnetic chronology independent of fossil biostratigraphy. Analysis integrates laboratory rock magnetism with field sampling to build high-resolution timescales and constrain plate motion.	Geochronological dating is the determination of absolute ages of rocks and minerals using the decay of radioactive isotopes. Pioneered by Rutherford and Soddy (1902), this method provides numerical anchors for geological timescales and enables quantitative understanding of geological processes. Modern techniques (K-Ar, Rb-Sr, U-Pb, 40Ar/39Ar) span from recent to ancient events and are essential for calibrating relative chronologies and assessing rates of geological change.
