Timing of Palaeoproterozoic crustal shearing in the central Fennoscandian Shield according to U-Pb data from associated granitoids, Finland

Granitoids in the Finnish part of the Fennoscandian Shield were created by numerous Archaean and Palaeoproterozoic tectonic events. Late phases of Palaeoproterozoic, Svecokarelian deformation created ductile, crustal-scale shear zones, of which the N-S striking Hirvaskoski Shear Zone and the NE-SW s...
