Fractionation of carbon and oxygen isotopes in 13C-rich Palaeoproterozoic dolostones in the transition from medium-gradegreenschist facies: a case study from the Kola Superdeep Drillhole [PDF]
Samples from the Kola Superdeep Drillhole (12 262 m), a deep drillhole (1060 m), and from the surface, seaprated by only around 10 km, provided a unique opportunity for direct tracing of delta(13)C and delta(18)O changes through a low- to high-grade ...

Petrogenesis of the Paleoproterozoic Näränkävaara layered intrusion, northern Finland, Part II: U-Pb ID-TIMS age and Sm-Nd isotope systematics [PDF]
Several mafic-ultramafic layered intrusions were emplaced in the NE Fennoscandian Shield during a magmatic episode at 2.44 Ga. The Paleoproterozoic Näränkävaara layered intrusion, northern Finland, is one of the largest ultramafic bodies in the ...

Paleolatitude and cause of the Svecokarelian orogeny [PDF]
Paleomagnetic data suggest a paleolatitude of 22°N for the Fennoscandian protocontinent during the Svecokarelian orogeny. This is lower than that of the Canadian shield during the same period.

POLENET/LAPNET teleseismic P wave travel time tomography model of the upper mantle beneath northern Fennoscandia [PDF]
The POLENET/LAPNET (Polar Earth Observing Network) broadband seismic network was deployed in northern Fennoscandia (Finland, Sweden, Norway, and Russia) during the third International Polar Year 2007–2009.

Timing of Palaeoproterozoic crustal shearing in the central Fennoscandian Shield according to U-Pb data from associated granitoids, Finland [PDF]
Granitoids in the Finnish part of the Fennoscandian Shield were created by numerous Archaean and Palaeoproterozoic tectonic events. Late phases of Palaeoproterozoic, Svecokarelian deformation created ductile, crustal-scale shear zones, of which the N-S ...

Fault systems in multiply deformed regions of Eurasia
We have studied the orogenic fragile deformation of the upper Earth’s crust of several areas of the Eurasian continent, where deformations have occurred many times – in the Tian Shan and Altai-Sayan regions of the Central Asian Paleozoic Fold Belt and in

Growth of the Archean sialic crust as revealed by zircon in the TTGs in eastern Finland [PDF]
U–Pb age determinations on zircon from granitoids in the Archean of eastern Finland were conducted using the SIMS, LA-ICP-MS and TIMS techniques, with an emphasis on low-HREE granitoids.

Timing of syn-orogenic, high-grade transtensional shear zone formation in the West Uusimaa Complex, Finland [PDF]
We present zircon and titanite U-Pb ages from granulite-facies transtensional shear zones and a greenschist facies strike-slip shear zone in the Karkkila-Vihti area, West Uusimaa. The zircon rim and titanite ages of c.

The nature of geoacoustic waves is discussed, based on comparison of the results of seismic and acoustic studies in the Fennoscandian Shield with the drilling record of the Kola Superdeep Borehole: 12262 m (1970-1990), Russia; Gravberg 6337 m (1986-1987),
