XRF and magnetic susceptibility records from sediments of Suzdalevo Lake (Tunguska region, Russia) – cores SUZ1 and SUZ3

Here, we present X-ray fluorescence (SM30 magnetic susceptibility meter, ZHinstruments Inc.) and normalized mass magnetic susceptibility (VANTA VMR with a Silicon Drift Detector, Olympus) datasets of two sediment cores (0.42 and 0.46 m long) from a shallow lake (Suzdalevo Lake, 1.8 ha, max. depth of 2.3 m) located near the epicenter of the Tunguska Event explosion in 1908 CE (60°39′29.05″N, 102°3′3.36″E). The datasets include primary data presented in an article (Kavková et al. 2022) that is focused on formation process of the study site (potential impact lake) and Tunguska Event-related environmental disturbance. Both cores were retrieved using a Kajak gravity corer (sampling tube diameter of 5.8 cm and length of 50 cm) in May 2019.
