Obiettivo The Kola superdeep borehole is the world's deepest exploratory scientific well and has provided unique data on the structure, composition and state of stress in the ancient continental crust. Joint research between the Geological Institute of the Kola Science Centre and research institutes in the United Kingdom will use information from the borehole and surrounding regions in Arctic Russia to arrive at conclusions concerning the age, origin and evolution of the Earth's ancient crust and will attempt to identify parameters important in the emplacement of economic mineral resources with a view to elaborating exploration strategies. Initial stages of the joint research will involve the training of Russian scientists in laboratories in the United Kingdom on techniques in fluid inclusion studies and stable and radiogenic isotope geochemical analysis using material collected in and around the borehole.Research will also be undertaken in the United Kingdom to try to establish a common framework for structural and tectonic concepts, terminology and descriptions to enable comparative efforts to bear fruit, and to lay the foundations for making a tectonic synthesis of the evolution of the crust in the Kola Peninsula.
