| Summary: | With support of the International Continental Scientific Drilling Program (ICDP) and other funding organizations, the Fennoscandia Arctic Russia – Drilling Early Earth Project (FAR-DEEP) operations have been successfully completed during 2007. A total of 3650 meters of core have been recovered from fifteen holes drilled through sedimentary and volcanic formations in Fennoscandia (Fig. 1), recording several global environmental changes spanning the time interval 2500–2000 Ma, including the Great Oxidation Event (GOE) (Holland, 2002). The core was meanwhile curated and archived in Trondheim, Norway, and it has been sampled by an international team of scientists. |
