Rapakivi granites, especially the famous rapakivis from southern Finland, are some of the most attractive building and decorative stones, used world‐wide because of their striking textures and beautiful colours. But rapakivi granites are more than just building material, they have also been studied scientifically for over 100 years to try to explain ...

Abstract Detailed geochronological, geochemical, and paleomagnetic studies of mafic dyke swarms, often associated with mantle plumes, can provide unique constraints on paleogeographic reconstructions. Mafic dykes with baddeleyite U–Pb ages of 1,233 ± 27 Ma (SIMS), 1,206.7 ± 1.7 Ma (TIMS), 1,214.0 ± 4.9 Ma (TIMS), and 1,236.3 ± 5.4 Ma (TIMS) have been ...

The Proterozoic granitoids of Finland: Granite types, metallogeny and relation to crustal evolution [PDF]
The granitoids are divided into four main groups: synkinematic (1860‒1930 Ma, most commonly 1870‒1890 Ma), late-kinematic (1800‒1850 Ma) and postkinematic (ca. 1800 Ma) Svecokarelian granitoids, and anorogenic rapakivi granites (1540‒1700 Ma).

Rb-Sr whole-rock isotopic study of late Archaean and early Proterozoic granitoid intrusions, Kainuu, Eastern Finland [PDF]
A tonalite-granodiorite-granite suite emplaced during the late Archaean D3 deformational phase yields a six point isochron age of 2,500 ± 270 Ma and an initial 87Sr/86Sr of 0.7044 ±0.0018.

About the genesis of ovoidal K-feldspar porphyry and quartz in rapakivi granites and related rocks [PDF]
A comparative study of structural peculiarities of ovoid K-feldspar porphyry and quartz of rapakivi granite of different arrays (Aland, Vyborg, Salmi batholith rapakivi of the Baltic shield and Bardiaush batholith rapakivi of the South Ural), and ...

Petrography and geochemistry of the topaz-bearing granite stocks in Artjärvi and Sääskjärvi, western margin of the Wiborg rapakivi granite batholith [PDF]
The Artjärvi and Sääskjärvi granite stocks at the western margin of the Wiborg rapakivi batholith are multiphase rapakivi granite intrusions in which the most evolved phase is topaz-bearing granite.
