Deposits
Endomines’ gold projects along the Karelian Gold Line in Ilomantsi and in the Porkonen and Kivimaa areas in Finnish Lapland.
Description of Gold Deposits
Endomines Oy operates in three different geographical and geological environments:
along the Karelian Gold Line in eastern Finland, in the area Porkonen in the municipality of Kittilä
and in the Kivimaa area in the municipality of Tervola.
The Karelian Gold Line mineralisations are of Archaean age meaning that they were formed more than 2 500 million years ago. Usually gold is found as individual grains or together with sulphides, oxides or tellurides in quartz veins, breccias or shear zones. These orogenic mineralisations are considered to be formed so that gold has leached out from the surrounding bedrock during intensive shearing and precipitate again in structural traps doe to the changes in the pressure
and temperature. The Porkonen deposit is a banded iron formation of early Proterozoisk age. The Kivimaa deposit in the Palaeoproterozoic Peräpohja Schist Belt, is an orogenic copper-gold deposit
