Structural position of ore-bearing areas in Finland
The Finnish ore deposits of the economically most important metals — mainly Cu, Fe, Ni, Pb, Ti and Zn — are grouped according to their metal content. This grouping closely follows the genetic classification of the ore deposits. A really the ore deposits in Finland are concentrated into four elongate...
