En kort redegjørelse for resultaterne fra kortlægningen af Altevatnområdet i Indre Troms.
Abstract
An outline of the stratigraphy and tectonics of an areasituated across the Caledonian thrust front south of Altevatn, northernNorway, is presented. The lithologies are described and it is shownthat the stratigraphy of the metasupracrustal rocks in this area isvery similar to that found immediately to the north of Altevatn. Astratigraphical correlation with an adjacent area, in Sweden, is alsoattempted, and from this it appears that the metamorphosedsupracrustals in this marginal part of the Caledonian mountain chainhave a common stratigraphy over a distance of ca. 80 km fromMåskanvarri to Tornetræsk.
