Geology of the Kittila Project
The gold mineralized zones in the Suurikuusikko field are hosted by a Greenstone Belt which extends from the Norwegian coast, through northern Finland and into Russia. The gold at Suurikuusikko is refractory, meaning that it is mainly found in the lattices of sulfide minerals (arsenopyrite and pyrite). About 75% of the gold is bound in arsenopyrite and 23% in pyrite. What remains is "free gold,"
