The age and origin of the Vaasa migmatite complex revisited [PDF]
The origin of the Vaasa migmatite complex was studied by using whole-rock Sm-Nd and zircon Lu-Hf and U-Pb data in conjunction with whole-rock major and trace element geochemistry.

Tectono-metamorphic evolution and timing of the melting processes in the Svecofennian Tonalite-Trondhjemite Migmatite Belt: An example from Luopioinen, Tampere area, southern Finland [PDF]
The Svecofennian Orogen is in southern Finland characterized by two major migmatite belts. These are the so-called Granite Migmatite Belt, in which Kfs-rich leucosomes predominate, and the Tonalite-Trondhjemite Migmatite Belt, which is characterized by ...

Primary crustal melt compositions: Insights into the controls, mechanisms and timing of generation from kinetics experiments and melt inclusions [PDF]
We explore the controls, mechanisms and timing of generation of primary melts and their compositions, and show that the novel studies of melt inclusions in migmatites can provide important insights into the processes of crustal anatexis of a particular ...

Formation mechanism of the Vaasa Batholith in the Fennoscandian shield: Petrographic and geochemical constraints [PDF]
The ~1.88 Ga Vaasa Batholith in western Finland is a large granitoid area (8 000 km2) with gradational contacts against the garnet- and cordierite-bearing diatexite and metatexite migmatites of the Pohjanmaa Belt.

U-Pn geochronology of deformed metagranites in central Sutherland, Scotland: evidence for widespread late Silurian metamorphism and ductile deformation of the Moine Supergroup during the Caledonian orogeny [PDF]
Within the Caledonides of central Sutherland, Scotland, the Neoproterozoic metasedimentary rocks of the Moine Supergroup record NW-directed D2 ductile thrusting and nappe assembly, accompanied by widespread tight-to-isoclinal folding and amphibolite ...

Petrology, geochemistry, and geochronology of the leucogranites in southernmost Finland [PDF]
In the southernmost part of the Svecofennian province in Finland, leucogranites and migmatites stemming from both igneous and sedimentary protoliths reflect the complex magmatic history of the Svecofennian orogeny between 1.89 and 1.82 Ga.

Intracratonic Palaeoproterozoic granitoids in northern Finland: Prolonged and episodic crustal melting events revealed by Nd isotopes and U-Pb ages on zircon [PDF]
Zircons from twelve Palaeoproterozoic granitoids from the Central Lapland Granitoid Complex (CLGC) and from the Hetta Complex (HC) in northern Finland were dated using the NORDSIM ion microprobe.

The Lomagundi-Jatuli carbon isotopic event recorded in the marble of the Tandilia System basement, Río de la Plata Craton, Argentina [PDF]
The “Lomagundi-Jatuli event” corresponds to the most important δ13C positive anomaly (≥5‰) globally reported in Palaeoproterozoic marine carbonates (between ∼2.30 and 2.06 Ga).

Three-dimensional distribution of primary melt inclusions in garnets by X-ray microtomography [PDF]
open6X-ray computed microtomography (X-mu CT) is applied here to investigate in a non-invasive way the three-dimensional (3D) spatial distribution of primary melt and fluid inclusions in gamets from the metapeitic enclaves of El Hoyazo and from the ...
