We studied the basement-cover relations in North Karelia, eastern Finland by modelling (1) regionally the thickness of the cover sequence and (2) the geometry of the Sotkuma dome (basement inlier). We utilized geological and aeromagnetic maps, together with the abundant structural data, in compilati...
