Abstract

This paper presents a number of hypotheses on the crustal evolution of the Salo area in SW Finland. The working hypotheses will be tested using a multi-disciplinary approach comprising structural analysis, 3/4D-modelling, isotope geology and geochemistry. The project is expected to provide new insights into the complex orogenic evolution of the Fennoscandian Shield at 1.9-1.8 Ga.
