V.Ya. Gorkovets, M.B. Rayevskaya. Geological Characteristics of the Crystalline Basement in the Republic of Karelia-Finland Border Zone // Transactions of Karelian Research Centre of Russian Academy of Science. No 2. Green Belt of Fennoscandia. 2009. Pp. 24-38
Keywords: precambrian, geological structure, crystalline rocks, fault zones, National Parks.
The authors discuss the distinctive geological structure of the 350 km long and 50–100 km wide Republic of Karelia-Finland border zone. Based on the analysis of the results of early and recent geological study with regard for satellite images and geophysical data, a geological sketch-map of this territory was made for the first time.
The authors describe the geological structure of active and designed national parks and protected areas in the Republic of Karelia and Finland and the geological factors that affect the formation of the soil cover and the development of biota on the various rock types of the Precambrian crystalline basement.
