Anorogenic granitoids of the Early Precambrian magmatism of the Ukrainian shield [PDF]
The Early Precambrian magmatism of the Ukrainian shield evolved through regular changes in tectonic setting, composition and depth of formation of rocks of three magmatic associations: (1) granitic, (2) diorite-granitic and (3) anorthosite-granitic. They

The occurrence of rare earth elements in some Finnish mires [PDF]
The content of the more abundant rare earths (RE) (Y, La, Ce, Pr, Nd and Sm) in the ash of 399 peat samples from 26 Finnish mires was determined by X-ray fluorescence spectrometry.

Rare metal granites and related rocks of the Ukrainian shield [PDF]
Two rare metal leucocratic granites, Perga and Kamennaya complexes, can be distinquished on the Ukrainian shield. The Perga complex consists of medium- and coarse-grained, mainly porphyric, biotite, riebeckite and aegirine granites, granite porphyries ...

Abstract Variations in depositional rates affect the temporal depositional resolutions of proxies used for paleoenvironmental reconstructions; for example, condensation can make reconstructed environmental changes appear very abrupt. This is commonly addressed by transforming proxy data using age models, but this approach is limited to situations where

Geochronology of the Suomenniemi rapakivi granite complex revisited: Implications of point-specific errors on zircon U-Pb and refined λ87 on whole-rock Rb-Sr [PDF]
Multi-grain isotope dilution and secondary ion microprobe zircon U-Pb as well as wholerock Rb-Sr isotope dilution data on the late Paleoproterozoic Suomenniemi rapakivi granite complex (exposed on the northern flank of the Wiborg batholith in ...

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 ...

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 ...

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.

Tectonic setting and origin of the Proterozoic rapakivi granites of southeastern Fennoscandia [PDF]
The 1·65–1·54 Ga rapakivi granites of southeastern Fennoscandia represent the silicic members of a bimodal magmatic association in which the mafic members are tholeiitic diabase dykes and minor gabbroic-anorthositic bodies.
