Timing of Svecofennian crustal growth and collisional tectonics in Åland, SW Finland [PDF]
In an effort to quantify the time parameter in the tectonomagmatic evolution of what has been called the Southern Svecofennian Arc Complex (SSAC) of SW Finland, advanced radiometric dating techniques have here been applied to rock groups of key ...

Pre-1.91 Ga deformation and metamorphism in the Palaeoproterozoic Vammala Migmatite Belt, southern Finland, and implications for Svecofennian tectonics [PDF]
A metamorphic event in the Vammala Migmatite Belt (VMB) at ~1.92 Ga, revealed by SHRIMP U-Pb analyses of both zircon overgrowths and monazite, is interpreted as post-depositional and is correlated with the development of the early high-grade schistosity.

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.

Geology and crystallization conditions of the Särkiniemi intrusion and related nickel-copper ore, central Finland – implications for depth of emplacement of 1.88 Ga nickel-bearing intrusions [PDF]
Several Ni-Cu deposits occur within the Kotalahti area, central Finland, in proximity to an Archaean gneiss dome surrounded by a Palaeoproterozoic craton-margin supracrustal sequence comprising quartzites, limestones, calc-silicate rocks, black schists ...

U-Pb zircon determinations from the Keikyä Breccia and other sites in the Svecofennides: indications of a Svecokarelian protocrust [PDF]
Heterogeneous zircon populations from four different localities within the Svecofennian area in Finland demonstrate that the ca. 1890 Ma old syntectonic granitoids contain older material, probably belonging to the ca. 1950 Ma Svecofennian protocrust, the

Rock magnetic investigations constraining relative timing for gold deposits in Finland [PDF]
Palaeomagnetic and anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility (AMS) studies were carried out on a orogenic gold deposit in Jokisivu, located in the western part of the Pirkanmaa Belt in the Svecofennian domain of southern Finland.

The Pyhäntaka formation, Southern Finland: A sequence of metasandstones and metavolcanic rocks upon an intra-orogenic unconformity [PDF]
Detrital zircon studies suggest that the few quartzite occurrences in southern Finland are younger than 1.87 Ga and express sedimentation after 1.89–1.87 Ga accretional deformation and metamorphism in the Svecofennian orogenic belt.

Supracrustal rocks in the Kuovila area, Southern Finland: Structural evolution, geochemical characteristics and the age of volcanism [PDF]
The supracrustal rocks of the Kuovila area in the Palaeoproterozoic Svecofennian Uusimaa Belt, southern Finland, consist mainly of volcaniclastic rocks associated with banded iron formations (BIFs) and marbles.

Rare Earth Elements in Middle Precambrian Volcanic Rocks of Finland, with a Discussion of the Origin of the Rocks [PDF]
The contents of rare earth elements (REE) have been determined in five Svecofennian metamorphosed volcanic rocks and are compared with those found in the Karelian zone and Recent tholeiites.
