DC magnetization and ESR measurements were performed for (Pb,Cu)(1)(Sr
,Gd)(2)(La,Gd)(2)Cu2Oz, and its magnetic properties were investigated.
A weak diamagnetism due to superconductivity appeared below 20 K, and
the diamagnetic susceptibility was determined as -0.13 at 5 K. A weak
ferro- or ferrimagnetic spin coupling occurred in the usual paramagne
tic system, and the magnetic susceptibility of ions deviated from Curi
e-Weiss law. The exchange field of Gd3+ was also estimated. (C) 1998 E
