  • Paleoproterozoic Mafic and Ultramafic Volcanic Rocks in the South Savo Region, Eastern Finland
    Development of the Paleoproterozoic Svecofennian orogeny: new constraints from the southeastern boundary of the Central Finland Granitoid Complex Edited by Perttu Mikkola, Pentti Hölttä and Asko Käpyaho Geological Survey of Finland, Bulletin 407, 63-84, 2018 PALEOPROTEROZOIC MAFIC AND ULTRAMAFIC VOLCANIC ROCKS IN THE SOUTH SAVO REGION, EASTERN FINLAND by Jukka Kousa, Perttu Mikkola and Hannu Makkonen Kousa, J., Mikkola, P. & Makkonen, H. 2018. Paleoproterozoic mafic and ultramafic volcanic rocks in the South Savo region, eastern Finland. Geological Survey of Finland, Bulletin 407, 63–84, 11 figures and 1 table. Ultramafic and mafic volcanic rocks are present as sporadic interlayers in the Paleo- proterozoic Svecofennian paragneiss units in the South Savo region of eastern Finland. These elongated volcanic bodies display locally well-preserved primary structures, have a maximum thickness of ca. 500 m and a maximum length of several kilometres. Geo- chemically, the ultramafic variants are picrites, whereas the mafic members display EMORB-like chemical compositions. The picrites, in particular, display significant com- positional variation in both major and trace elements (light rare earth and large-ion lithophile elements). These differences may have been caused by differences in their magma source, variable degrees of crustal contamination and post-magmatic altera- tion, as well as crystal accumulation and fractionation processes. The volcanic units are interpreted to represent extensional phase(s) in the development of the sedimentary basin(s) where the protoliths of the paragneisses were deposited. The eruption age of the volcanic units is interpreted to be 1.91–1.90 Ga. Appendix 1 is available at: http://tupa.gtk.fi/julkaisu/liiteaineisto/bt_407_appendix_1.

  • Ita-Suomi FI13 RIM Regional Innovation Report
    Version: Final Date: 19 August 2011 Regional Innovation Monitor Regional Innovation Report (Eastern Finland/Itä-Suomi) To the European Commission Enterprise and Industry Directorate-General Directorate D – Industrial Innovation and Mobility Industries Kimmo Viljamaa Henri Lahtinen Advansis www.technopolis-group.com PREFACE The Regional Innovation Monitor (RIM)1 is an initiative of the European Commission's Directorate General for Enterprise and Industry, which has the objective to describe and analyse innovation policy trends across EU regions. RIM analysis is based on methodologies developed in the context of the INNO-Policy Trendchart which covers innovation policies at national level as part of the PRO INNO Europe initiative. The overarching objective of this project is to enhance the competitiveness of European regions through increasing the effectiveness of their innovation policies and strategies. The specific objective of the RIM is to enhance the scope and quality of policy assessment by providing policy-makers, other innovation stakeholders with the analytical framework and tools for evaluating the strengths and weaknesses of regional policies and regional innovation systems. RIM covers EU-20 Member States: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden and the United Kingdom. This means that RIM will not concentrate on Member States where the Nomenclature of territorial units for statistics NUTS 1 and 2 levels are identical with the entire country (Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania), Malta which only has NUTS 3 regions, Slovenia which has a national innovation policy or Cyprus and Luxembourg which are countries without NUTS regions.
