On the history of mineralogenic studies and development of Arctic Karelia
Abstract The paper focuses on the mineral resources of the Karelian Arctic. Arctic districts are linked to the White Sea. The White Sea is connected via the White Sea-Baltic Channell with the Baltic, Caspian and Black seas. All the above districts have state railways and highways connecting Karelia...
