Espoo 2019 Huhma, H. 2019. Isotope results from Lapland-Kola province in Finland. Geological Survey of Finland, Open file research report 37/2019, 44 pages, 52 figures, 1 table and 7 appendices.

Abundant isotopic data have been obtained from the Inari-Utsjoki area since the 1970’s. Many older results have recently been confirmed by U-Pb spot analyses. This paper reports on the abundant isotopic data now available on the Lapland-Kola Province in Finland. The U-Pb data on zircon include old U-Pb TIMS analyses from nearly 70 samples, together with more recent ICP-MS spot analyses on 20 samples. The old Pb-Pb TIMS data are presented from ca. 50 whole rocks and 30 K-feldspar separates. The previously unpublished Sm-Nd data produced at GTK consist of ca. 60 analyses. These data together with the results from the published papers provide the basis for understanding the geo- logical evolution of the Lapland-Kola Province. The main results include: -Archean gneisses occur in the Inarijärvi complex and Kevo window. Based on Pb-Pb isotope data from whole rocks and K-felspar and U-Pb ages on titanite the Archean rocks show strong 1.9 Ga metamorphic effects. -2.5 Ga rocks occur in two belts, in the Vuotso complex S-SW of granulites continuing further south to the Koitelainen area, and in the western border zone of the Archaean Inarijärvi complex. -Lapland-Kola Province east of granulites contains significant amount of 1.94-1.91 Ga juvenile crust with arc affinities. -Lapland granulite belt is characterised by migmatitic metasediments, 1.91-1.93 Ga enderbites and 1.904 Ga appinites. The metasediments were derived from 1.94-2.9 Ga sources and contain 1.91 Ga monazites and slightly younger metamorphic zircon con- current with the closure of the Sm-Nd system in garnet. The appinites are undeformed and set the lower age limit to the deformation of the granulite belt.

1 INTRODUCTION

Our understanding of the geological evolution of Lapland-Kola province have also been published by the Lapland-Kola Province in Finland was largely Bernard-Griffiths et al. (1984), Barbey et al. (1984), based on the comprehensive isotopic studies (U-Pb, Daly et al. (2001, 2006), Tuisku & Huhma (2006), Pb-Pb and Rb-Sr) performed by GTK in the early Tuisku et al. (2012), and most recently by Lahtinen 1970s. The main results were reported by Meriläinen & Huhma (2019).
