  • ANNEX 2 Geological Heritage and Summary
    ANNEX 2 Geological heritage and summary SUMMARY Platåbergens Geopark is situated in the southwest Swedish gneiss terrane of the Fennoscandian shield, cover ing the Swedish table mountain landscape. Several remarkable and unique geological features are easily access ible in the geopark, together representing a time span of around 1.7 billion years. The main attractions are the 15 classic table mountains, which has been an important area for geological research since 18th century. The table mountains themselves are relicts of Palaeozoic cover of sedimentary bedrocks and stands out as prominent features in the landscape. Underlying the table mountains is the sub-Cambrian peneplain, which is well preserved and well visible in the aspiring geopark area. The region also contains landforms created during two of the most important events during the late Quaternary of Sweden; the Younger Dryas cold interval and the drainage of the Baltic Ice Lake. E.1.1 Geological heritage and conservation General geological description of the aUGGp THE PRECAMBRIAN continental accretion. Five to six orogenies can be sorted The Swedish Precambrian bedrock was formed over a very out which contributed to the construction and modification long time. The crustal growth started at about 2.8 billion of the bedrock in different parts of Sweden. Finally, at 1.5 Ga years ago in the very north of the country and finished in the ago, the craton was established although later magmatism southwest at 1.5 billion years ago; that is more than 1 billion and metamorphic overprinting occurred. years of crust construction. The crust formation is character- In the geopark area the principal crust was formed at 1.7 ised by repeated accretions forming the oldest rocks in the to 1.6 Ga ago, although later covered by sedimentary rocks present northernmost Sweden to the present western part and intruded by mafic intrusions and granitoids.

  • Keuper (Late Triassic) Sediments in Germany 193
    NORWEGIAN JOURNAL OF GEOLOGY Keuper (Late Triassic) sediments in Germany 193 Keuper (Late Triassic) sediments in Germany – indicators of rapid uplift of Caledonian rocks in southern Norway Josef Paul, Klaus Wemmer and Florian Wetzel Paul, J., Wemmer, K. & Wetzel, F. 2009: Keuper (Late Triassic) sediments in Germany – indicators of rapid uplift of Caledonian rocks in southern Norway. Norwegian Journal of Geology, vol. 89, pp 193-202, Trondheim 2009, ISSN 029-196X. K/Ar ages of detrital Keuper micas in the Central European Basin provide new information about the provenance of siliciclastic sediments. All sam- ples of the Erfurt Formation (Lower Keuper) and the Stuttgart Formation (Middle Keuper) indicate Caledonian (445 - 388 Ma) ages. These sedi- ments originate from the Caledonides of southern Norway. The older Fennoscandian Shield and the Russian Platform did not supply any material. In combination with zircon fission track data, we show that uplift of the Caledonides of southern Norway accelerated dramatically during the Car- nian, most likely as a result of rifting of the Viking Graben. This push of Scandinavian-derived sediments ceased in the Upper Keuper (Rhaetian). Instead of Scandinavian sediments, micas of Panafrican age were transported from southeast Poland and Slovakia into the Central European Basin. Only micas in the vicinity of the south German Vindelician High and the Bohemian Block have Variscan ages. J. Paul, K. Wemmer, F. Wetzel: Geowiss.

This is based on the individual geological datasets held by each geological survey in Europe, and which may differ considerably with respect to their contents, description and geometry. To make these data interoperable is a considerable task and 1G-E Work Package 3 (WP3) is delivering the essential basis for that endeavour: the 1G-E Data Specification.

  • Geology of the Setesdalen Area, South Norway: Implications for the Sveconorwegian Evolution of South Norway
    Geology of the Setesdalen area, South Norway: Implications for the Sveconorwegian evolution of South Norway SVEND PEDERSEN & JENS KONNERUP-MADSEN Pedersen, S. & Konnerup-Madsen, J. 2000–02–10: Geology of the Setesdalen area, South Norway: Implications for the Sveconorwegian evolution of South Norway. Bulletin of the Geological Society of Denmark, Vol. 46, pp. 181–201, Copenhagen. https://doi.org/10.37570/bgsd-1999-46-15 Crust forming processes in the Setesdalen area in the central part of southern Norway are dominated by the development of pre-Sveconorwegian supracrustal rocks (immature clastic sediments and bimodal volcanics) with an assumed depo- sitional age of 1150–1100 Ma and by the emplacement of scattered infracrustal granitoids. The supracrustal rocks were deposited on a partly older than 1300 Ma gneissic basement including rocks which may have suffered one or more pre- Sveconorwegian orogeneses. During the Sveconorwegian orogeny, with the main upper greenschist to middle amphibolite facies high-temperature metamorphism and deformational phases in the period 1060–970 Ma, igneous activity compris- ing K-rich rocks high in elements such as P, Ti, La, Sr, Zr, and LREE and Ba was dominant. Significantly younger than this activity is the development of many REE pegmatites which are so characteristic for the region. The Precambrian geo- logical activity terminated (at about 830 Ma?) with the development of E-W trending tholeiitic dolerites.

Vladimir Medan, Göteborg University, Department of Earth sciences; Geoscience, Box 460, SE-405 30 Göteborg Abstract Core-drilled boreholes have been drilled in Proterozoic bedrock in the central parts of Gothenburg, SW Sweden, during the preliminary investigation for tunneling a railway in the West-Link Project. The Swedish transport administration is responsible for the planning of the project and to guarantee the safety, therefore significant information about the bedrock is obtained through preliminary investi- gations before excavating the tunnel. The aim of this study was to investigate the fracture mineralogy and the fracture orientations and if possible use as a predictive tool for future tunnel projects. Five generations of fracture minerals were identified that were precipitated during at least three major epi- sodes of fluid migration in fractured Proterozoic bedrock, western Sweden. Data were used from the preliminary investigations of the West-Link Project and samples were taken from drill cores. The min- erals identified were grouped into generations based on cross-cutting relationships for their relative age. Three major events of fluid migration have been identified in the West-Link.

  • A Rb-Sr Whole-Rock Age Study
    Timing of Gothian structural evolution in SE Norway: A Rb-Sr whole-rock age study OLE GRA VERSEN & SVEND PEDERSEN Graversen, O. & Pedersen, S.: Timing of Gothian structural evolution in SE Norway: A Rb-Sr whole-rock age study. Norsk Geologisk Tidsskrift, Vol. 79, pp. 47-56. Oslo 1999. ISSN 0029-196X. The polydeformed basement area in SE Norway is situated within the southwest borderof the Baltic Shield. The investigated area covers the northem part of the Østfold segment (the Østfold Complex) and adjoining parts of the Median segment (the Romerike Complex). New Rb-Sr whole-rock age determinations are integrated with the structural evolution. The oldest rock unit is the Østfold-St. Le-Marstrand formation. During successive stages the supracrustal unit was intruded by major granitic bodies now forming the biotite gneiss ( oldest), the augen gneiss and metatonalite/granite complexes (youngest). The emplacement of the granitic units was separated by orogenic deformation events, Fo-F3, recognized by the development of large-scale regional folding accompanied by amphibolite facies metamorphism. Rb-Sr whole-rock age determinations indicate a maximum age for the biotite gneiss (pre-F0) at 1.71 Ga; this age also marks the maximum age of the Gothian orogeny. Intrusion of the Nordstrand-Sørmarka metatonalite/granite complex, 1.58 ± 0.13 Ga, and the Østmarka metatonalite complex, 1.56 ± 0.04 Ga, around the F2 deformation marks the end of the Gothian orogeny at ca. 1.57 Ga. A resetting age of the augen gneiss, 1.06 ±0. 17 Ga, is ascribed to the F3 deformation; this age indicates a minimum age for the onset of the Sveconorwegian orogeny.
