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 ...

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.

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

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 ...

Triplite and wolframite from a greisen-bordered veinlet in Eurajoki, SW Finland [PDF]
Triplite and wolframite are described from a greisen-bordered veinlet associated with the local varieties of the Laitila rapakivi granite massif. The chemical analysis, unit cell dimensions and specific gravity are given for these minerals, and in ...

Age and Geochemical Characteristics of Nansu Rapakivi Granite in Jiaobei Uplift Belt, Qingdao
LA-ICP-MS zircon U-Pb geochronology from Nansu large Rapakivi granite in the Jiaobei uplift belt shows the concordant age is 116.5±0.32Ma and the weighted average age is 116.7±0.89Ma, belonging to the late Yanshanian products of Early Cretaceous.

Crustal development in relation to granitic magmatism in regard to D/H partition between coexisting hornblende and biotite in the Svecofennian belt [PDF]
Tie-lines in the σD-XFe diagram of hornblende and biotite in Japanese island arc granites give commonly a similar slope to that derived from the equation of Suzuoki-Epstein's experimental work (1976).

Th-Rich Zircon from a Pegmatite Vein Hosted in the Wiborg Rapakivi Granite Massif
Zircon from a pegmatite vein hosted in the rapakivi granites occurring in the Gubanov Intrusion of the Wiborg Massif was shown by the EPMA method to contain an anomalously high Th of 18.3 wt% ThO2 (about 161,000 ppm Th).
