Magnetite and ilmenite from some Finnish rocks [PDF]
Coexisting accessory magnetite and ilmenite -were separated and chemically analysed from five Finnish Precambrian rocks: anorogenic olivine diabase and gabbroanorthosite as well as three metamorphosed Svecofennian quartz diorites.

Metasomatic monazite growth as a result of apatite-fluid interactions: U-Pb dating of monazite in the Siilinjärvi glimmerite-carbonatite complex, Finland [PDF]
Monazite U-Pb results obtained for a calcite carbonatite sample from the Siilinjärvi glimmerite-carbonatite complex yields a lower concordia intercept age of 1760 ± 17 Ma (2σ uncertainty, n = 50).

Early Proterozoic stratigraphy of the Salahmi-Pyhäntä area, central Finland, with an emphasis on applying the principles of lithodemic stratigraphy to a complexly deformed and metamorphosed bedrock [PDF]
The medium-highly metamorphozed and intensely deformed early Proterozoic supracrustal rocks of the study area, located at the boundary zone between the Karelian and Svecofennian zones in central Finland, are classified following the recommendations of ...

The 1.88 Ga Kotalahti and Vammala nickel belts, Finland: Geochemistry of the mafic and ultramafic metavolcanic rocks [PDF]
The mafic and ultramafic volcanic rocks within the Svecofennian (1.88 Ga) Kotalahti and Vammala Nickel Belts, Finland, are spatially associated and coeval with a suite of mineralized mafic-ultramafic intrusions.

Structural observations and U-Pb mineral ages from igneous rocks at the Archaean-Palaeoproterozoic boundary in the Salahmi Schist Belt, central Finland: constraints on tectonic evolution [PDF]
The study area in Vieremä, central Finland, contains part of Archaean-Palaeoproterozoic boundary. In the east, the area comprises Archaean gneiss and the Salahmi Schist Belt. The rocks of the schist belt are turbiditic metagreywackes, with well-preserved

An intrusive-like tectonic breccia in the archipelago of southwestern Finland [PDF]
On an islet in the archipelago of southwestern Finland with metamorphic rocks belonging to the Svecofennian zone it is possible to follow in exposure for a distance of some metres the transition from a layered paragneiss with amphibolite bands to a ...

1865 Ma tholeiitic magmatism during an extensional episode of the Svecofennian orogeny: the Kaiplot gabbros in Nagu (Nauvo), southwestern Finland [PDF]
The Svecofennian orogeny in southern Finland has traditionally been divided into two broadly defined compressional stages, the 1.89–1.87 Ga “synorogenic” stage and the ca 1.84–1.81 Ga “lateorogenic” stage.

Svecofennian intra-orogenic gabbroic magmatism: A case study from Turku, southwestern Finland [PDF]
Using single-grain zircon U-Pb dating by LA-MC-ICPMS and whole-rock geochemistry, we have studied the Palaeoproterozoic gabbroic rocks from Moisio in southwest Finland. Three ages were obtained.
