Nature, affinities and significance of metavolcanic rocks in the Outokumpu assemblage, eastern Finland [PDF]
The rock association of serpentinite‒chrome-silicate skarn‒dolomite-quartz rock‒black schist in the Outokumpu region, in which polymetallic sulphide ore deposits occur, has been compared to an ophiolite.

U-Pb (Zircon) Ages of Metavolcanic Rocks From the Itaiacoca Group: Tectonic Implications [PDF]
The main aim of this work is to present and discuss the U-Pb ages obtained for zircon grains from metavolcanic rocks of theItaiacoca Group. The Itaiacoca Group is a metavolcano-sedimentary sequence, which occurs as a narrow belt between theCunhaporanga ...

Palaeoproterozoic mafic and intermediate metavolcanic rocks in the Turku area, SW Finland [PDF]
Twenty two samples were analysed from mafic and intermediate volcanic rocks from the Turku area along ~60 km long north-south geotraverse. Geographically and lithologically the samples were divided into the Pargas, Turku and Vahto groups.

Multi-method characterization of rare blue quartz-bearing metavolcanic rocks of the Rio dos Remédios Group, Paramirim Aulacogen, NE Brazil [PDF]
The Rio dos Remédios Group comprises a supracrustal sequence that occupies the base of the Espinhaço Supergroup, São Francisco Craton, Brazil. Its basal formation, Novo Horizonte, crops out in the Paramirim region mainly as metavolcanic rocks that ...

Gold mobilization during metamorphic devolatilization of Archean and Paleoproterozoic metavolcanic rocks [PDF]
Abstract Volcanic rocks in Archean and Paleoproterozoic greenstone belts are abundant and have been suggested as a potential Au source for orogenic Au deposits. The behavior of Au during metamorphism of these rocks is, however, poorly known.

Hydrocarbons in the Säviä volcanic schist zone, central Finland [PDF]
Light hydrocarbon gases have been analysed from 21 samples of hydrothermally unaltered and 11 samples of hydrothermally altered metavolcanic rocks from the Säviä volcanic schist zone in the southwestern part of the Proterozoic Vihanti— Pyhäsalmi ...

Geology and Lithogeochemistry of the Supracrustal Sequence and Interlayered Metabasites of NE Santos Dumont Region (MG) [PDF]
The region near Santos Dumont town consists of a sequence of interlayered metabasic rocks and supracrustal gneisses. Two lithological units were individualized based on geological-structural mapping (1:50,000), petrography and lithogeochemistry: a ...

Strain analysis in the Orijärvi triangle, southwestern Finland; in perspective of tectonic models [PDF]
Finite strain analyses were performed in metavolcanic rocks (agglomerates and pillowed metabasalts) from the Orijärvi area, southwestern Finland. In this area, tight folding (F1) of layered metasedimentary rocks and development of a penetrative axial ...
