We report 24 palaeomagnetic directions and 10 high-quality Thellier-derived palaeointensity (PI) values, obtained from 27 sites located in Baja California Peninsula, northwestern Mexico. Sampling was done in four rock units (magnesian andesites, calc-alkaline lavas, ignimbrites, adakites) belonging to San Borja and Jaraguay monogenetic volcanic fields. These units have erupted between ∼ 15 and 2.6 Ma (previous K-Ar and 40Ar/39Ar data); hence results are presented in two consecutive periods: middle-late Miocene and Pliocene. The identified main magnetic minerals in the sampled sites are titanomagnetite, magnetite, and minor hematite, of variable grain size, present as intergrowths or surrounding grains, which reflect varying oxidation/reduction conditions during emplacement of high-temperature magmas. Based on previous geological and geophysical records, the kinematic evolution was carefully …
