The secondary (metachronous) component of magnetization isolated in the Precambrian complexes of the Karelian craton have been analyzed. The mean directions of high temperature components (deviations from the true direction) depending on the contribution of secondary magnetization components resulting from uneven-aged tectono-magmatic events. It has been shown that the Precambrian key poles often coincide with the vector sum of the ages of Phanerozoic component of magnetization. The conclusion about the primary/secondary origin of the Precambrian paleomagnetic poles must be set on the basis of the integrated petro-paleomagnetic and isotopic data and geological correlations, not only tests of paleomagnetic reliability.
