Geochemical evolution of Dalradian metavolcanic rocks: implications for the break-up of the Rodinia supercontinent [PDF]
Abstract: Neoproterozoic basaltic magmatism in the Dalradian Supergroup of Scotland and Ireland was associated with the break-up of the Rodinia supercontinent. Magmas were erupted in rift-related basins along a strike length of at least 700 km and during a time period of c . 80 Ma.

Geochemical and U-Pb and Sm-Nd isotopic constraints on the evolution of the Paleoproterozoic Ylitornio nappe complex, northern Fennoscandia [PDF]
The Ylitornio area in northern Finland is a typical example of a poorly outcropping, multiply deformed, complex Precambrian terrain. U–Pb, Sm-Nd and geochemical data from metavolcanic, metasedimentary and plutonic rocks combined with structural data ...

Lithostratigraphy of the Mesoproterozoic Vemork formation, central Telemark, Norway [PDF]
The Vemork formation forms a c. 2 km thick volcanic-sedimentary unit above the 1510 – 1500 Ma old Tuddal felsic volcanite formation, the oldest unit of the Mesoproterozoic Telemark supracrustals in southern Norway.

Gold-arsenic sulfide mineralization of the Kayancha area, Gorny Altai
Gold-arsenic sulfide type mineralization has first been revealed for the Gorny Altai region. The mineralized zones associate with lamprophyre dikes and are controlled by steeply dipping faults transecting the Vendian-Cambrian terrigenous-carbonate ...

Zinc Contents of Mafic Micerals in Granitic Rocks, with Special Reference to Ore Chemistry [PDF]
In order to know the reason why the Cu/Zn-Pb ratios of skarn-type deposits related with the ilmenite-series granitic rocks are markedly higher than those related with the magnetite-series, comparative mineralogical studies were carried out for the two ...
