Basalttijahdissa savannilla : Geologian museon tutkimusmatka Mosambikiin 20.8.-9.9.2012
Our two-person “flood basalt task force” (authors Arto Luttinen and Jussi Heinonen) of the Finnish Museum of Natural History (LUOMUS) spent three weeks in Mozambican countryside collecting samples of the little-studied flood basalt formations of the Jurassic ~180 Ma Karoo large igneous province.
