The aim of the project was to test the CROCS technology of NATI in a regional mineral potential mapping when the glacial till samples were used. 102 till samples with about 3-5 km sampling interval were collected as a part of GTK’s own sampling programme. Test pits and soil drilling were used to collect the till samples from a basal part of the glaciogenic overburden, near the bedrock surface. In this report, the results of conventional till geochemistry (<0.06 mm sieved size fraction analysed by ICP-OES after aqua regia digestion) made by GTK is presented. The results prove the study area to be potential for several base metals like chromium and nickel together with gold and PGE. Results of the CROCS technology application by NATI were presented in the sepa- rate, appended report (http://www.natires.com/rrs2013-1.htm, referred 7th May 2014).

The test was related to gold potential mapping of the area nearby Tammela. That project rose up an idea to continue method- ology testing in a regional scale in some other study area of GTK. The area in Savukoski-Pelkosenniemi, eastern Finnish Lapland was chosen for a new project area. This project included both a conventional till geochemical research done by GTK and the methodological testing of the CROCS technology done by NATI Research Oy. For the sample material of the research GTK collected 102 basal till samples from the whole study area (Fig. 1) as a part of GTK’s own sampling programme. The sampling was carried out in 2012-2013. The aim of the GTK’s own programme was to collect till and bedrock samples from the area to study geochemical and lithological features of the area to estimate mineral exploration potential of the area. GTK’s sampling point network was planned based on earlier geological knowledge and Quaternary maps of the study area. Analyse and interpretation results were not applied to verify during this project. Fig. 1. Location of the Savukoski-Pelkosenniemi study area in eastern Finland. Till sampling points used for collecting samples in this study are also presented on the bedrock map 1:200 000 after GTK. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY OF FINLAND 58/2014 2 2 BEDROCK Bedrock in the study area consists of both Achaean and Proterotzoic rocks and the contact zone between them (Fig. 1). Archaean rocks in the eastern part are mainly composed of granite gneiss and some mafic volcanic rocks (Juopperi 1986). They are a part of 2.5-3.0 Ga old the Tuntsa Suite that are existing in eastern Lapland. In the western part of the study area, quartzites, mica schicts, diabase veins and some mafic rocks of the 2.0-2.4 Ga old Savukoski Group exist. The narrow chain of komatites and mafic vol- canic rocks with some mica schists are following the contact of Archaean and Proterotzoic rocks almost in north-south orientation through the area. In south-eastern corner of the study area situates the Akan- vaara layered intrusion of 2.44 Ga in age. It includes chromium mineralization that was studied in many phases over decades (Mutanen 1997). Rocks in the whole study area are strongly deformed and faulted, and metamorphosed in the amphibolite facies. The bedrock is largely pre-glacially weathered having sev- eral metres thick partly or totally softened saprolite of saprock surface. In places weathering has been ef- fective and as a consequence of it kaolinite is found in the bedrock. 3 QUATERNARY GEOLOGY The study area locates on southern side of the last ice-divide zone of the Late Weichselian glaciation (Jo- hansson et al. 2011). Ice flow direction has been mainly from north-west to south-east. After strong gla- cial events, glaciogenic overburden composed mainly on sandy till covers the bedrock dominantly in the area. Only the tops of the highest hills are covered by the block fields of frost-weathered bedrock. In low land areas peat deposits are common and cover till layers. There is one glaciofluvial esker system that crosses the area in northwest-southeast direction in the central part of the study area. Post-glacial river sands and silts are common in the Kemijoki River valley. Based on test pit, soil and percussion drilling data the thickness of overburden varies generally 2-5 m, but in topographic depressions and in the river valleys it can reached up to 50 m. 4 METHODS Till samples were collected using the test pits and soil drillings (Table 1). Totally 102 sampling points were used to collect basal till samples. The samples were stratigraphy controlled and the sampling depth has been about one meter above bedrock surface from the bottommost till bed. This sampling strategy was supposed to produce most homogeneous sampling material where the till samples represents most uniform glacial transport and deposition processes. In this project two types of till samples were used: a) c. 250-350 g for conventional till geochemistry (used in GTK) and b) c. 5 litres, i.e. 7-10 kg that were sent to NATI for the CROCS technology applica- tion. Conventional till samples were dried (70°C) and sieved (<0.063 mm) before digesting subsample (5 g) using aqua regia. After that they were analysed by ICP-OES and ICP-MS for 41 elements (method 515PM) and GFAAS for gold and palladium (method 521U) in the Labtium laboratory (Labtium order 47506). The 5 litres samples were sent to NATI’s laboratory and they were processed as described in the appended report (http://www.natires.com/rrs2013-1.htm, referred 7th May 2014). Analysis includes both geochemical and mineralogical component of the concentrated till samples. Furthermore, two concentrate GEOLOGICAL SURVEY OF FINLAND 58/2014 3 fractions processed by NATI (so called heavy fraction, HF, and fine fraction, FF)) were analysed in the Labtium laboratory (ordered by GTK) using the same methods as were used for the conventional geo- chemistry (Labtium orders 47526, 47527, 47559, 47560).

    Late Weichselian and Holocene shore displacement history of the Baltic Sea in Finland MATTI TIKKANEN AND JUHA OKSANEN Tikkanen, Matti & Juha Oksanen (2002). Late Weichselian and Holocene shore displacement history of the Baltic Sea in Finland. Fennia 180: 1–2, pp. 9–20. Helsinki. ISSN 0015-0010. About 62 percent of Finland’s current surface area has been covered by the waters of the Baltic basin at some stage. The highest shorelines are located at a present altitude of about 220 metres above sea level in the north and 100 metres above sea level in the south-east. The nature of the Baltic Sea has alter- nated in the course of its four main postglacial stages between a freshwater lake and a brackish water basin connected to the outside ocean by narrow straits. This article provides a general overview of the principal stages in the history of the Baltic Sea and examines the regional influence of the associated shore displacement phenomena within Finland. The maps depicting the vari- ous stages have been generated digitally by GIS techniques. Following deglaciation, the freshwater Baltic Ice Lake (12,600–10,300 BP) built up against the ice margin to reach a level 25 metres above that of the ocean, with an outflow through the straits of Öresund. At this stage the only substantial land areas in Finland were in the east and south-east. Around 10,300 BP this ice lake discharged through a number of channels that opened up in central Sweden until it reached the ocean level, marking the beginning of the mildly saline Yoldia Sea stage (10,300–9500 BP).
