Zircon dating of the basalt and felsic dyke in Haveri, SW Finland [PDF]
The E-MORB type Haveri basalt differs from the volcanic arc type rocks in the Tampere belt showing no subduction signature. It is considered to have formed in a marginal basin prior to the volcanic arc. We present here zircon U-Pb dating on two samples.

The Salittu Formation in southwestern Finland, part I: Structure, age and stratigraphy [PDF]
Because of the relatively low metamorphic grade, low strain and well-preserved early structures in volcanic and volcaniclastic rocks, the Orijärvi triangle (in the center of the larger Orijärvi area) is one of the few locations in the Svecofennian orogen

The crystalline basement of Estonia: rock complexes of the Palaeoproterozoic Orosirian and Statherian and Mesoproterozoic Calymmian periods, and regional correlations [PDF]
New data on the Fennoscandian Shield and the Baltic area suggest a need for reinterpretation of the stratigraphy of Estonian Precambrian rock complexes.

Evidence of permafrost in the Paleoproterozoic (c. 1.9 Ga) of Central Sweden
Abstract This paper reports on an ice‐wedge pseudomorph that formed and is preserved in metavolcanic host material that was later transformed to metamorphic solid bedrock. It has been dated to 1,895 ± 5 Ma by U–Pb geochronology of zircon in the bedrock, an Early Proterozoic age.

The Luusika potential field anomaly, eastern Estonia: modelling results [PDF]
This study considers the anomalous gravity and magnetic fields in the Alutaguse petrological–structural domain, eastern Estonia. A 10 km wide local maximum (+6.26 mGal) Bouguer anomaly field was discovered at 58.96°N, 26.61°E from the ground gravity data

1.88 Ga granitoids at Sorsakoski, Central Finland: A-type magmatism within the Raahe-Ladoga suture zone [PDF]
Four quartz monzonite – granite intrusions forming the Sorsakoski granite lithodeme, are found within the Raahe-Ladoga suture zone in Central Finland. The prevailing potassium feldspar megacrystic quartz monzonites and granites form a bimodal association

Sm-Nd data for mafic-ultramafic intrusions in the Svecofennian (1.88 Ga) Kotalahti Nickel Belt, Finland - Implications for crustal contamination at the Archaean/Proterozoic boundary [PDF]
Sm-Nd data were determined for eight mafic-ultramafic intrusions from the Svecofennian (1.88 Ga) Kotalahti Nickel Belt, Finland. The intrusions represent both mineralized and barren types and are located at varying distances from the Archaean/Proterozoic

Mafic-ultramafic intrusions of Matokulma, Palojärvi, and Hongonniittu within the Central Finland Granitoid Complex with special reference to their petrogenesis and ore potential [PDF]
We describe three previously unknown or poorly studied mafic-ultramafic intrusions (Matokulma, Palojärvi, Hongonniittu) from the south-central part of the Paleoproterozoic Central Finland Granitoid Complex (CFGC).

Microstructures associated with the Sottunga-Jurmo shear zone and their implications for the 1.83–1.79 Ga tectonic development of SW Finland [PDF]
This petrographic study of rock samples from the area of a large-scale shear zone, the Sottung-Jurmo shear zone, in SW Finland, illuminates the thermal development of and strain distribution within the rocks during the last development stages of the ...
