A plan for a geochemical study on weathered bedrock in Northern Finland
Systematic geochemical mapping based on till sampling has revealed an almost continuous layer of weathered material under the till cover in Northern Finland. Differential leaching and enrichment of elements during weathering have changed the element contents and ratios so significantly that the va...
