Traces of alum shale in the Finnish Caledonides of the Enontekiö Lapland
The existence of alum shale in the small Finnish sector of the Scandinavian Caledonides has been verified by chemical finds. Enhanced values for V and Mo (1050 and 450 ppm, respectively) together with more common tenors of C and U have been reported. These values could be used to discriminate betwee...
