Paleolatitude and cause of the Svecokarelian orogeny

Paleomagnetic data suggest a paleolatitude of 22°N for the Fennoscandian protocontinent during the Svecokarelian orogeny. This is lower than that of the Canadian shield during the same period. Precambrian polar wandering curves of the two continents differ, thus indicating independent drifting. Mutu...
