The Raja Au-Co mineralization in the Paleoproterozoic Peräpohja belt in northern Finland is part of the wider Rompas-Rajapalot mineralized area with several known Au-Co occurrences. The area is characterized by distinct tourmaline occurrences, spatially associated with Au-Co mineralization. Four texturally distinct tourmaline types were identified although all analysed tourmalines belong to the alkali-group and are classified as dravite. δ 11B values and fractionation modelling indicates that at least two distinct fluids were responsible for the tourmaline formation with initial end member δ11B values of the fluids at −8‰ and −1‰. Possible sources for boron rich fluids are Svecofennian orogeny related (ca. < 1.9 Ga) metamorphic fluids and magmatic-hydrothermal fluids related to the late-orogenic ca. 1.78 Ga granitoids. Structural data from the quartz-tourmaline veins outlines a strong linear trend towards the Raja high-grade mineralization trend. This is interpreted as evidence for structural control of the Raja mineralization, which possibly is contained in shear-zones or within the hinge regions of local high degree folding.A distinctive rock unit with bright purple anhydrite layers and white gypsum veins has been intersected by drilling. While the sulfate-rich unit is unmineralized, the mineralogy and regional geological setting suggests an evaporitic origin. Anhydrite has δ34S values in a narrow range from 8.1 to 9.8 ‰. Gypsum has slightly heavier δ34S from 10.6 to 12.2 ‰. Together with isotope fractionation constraints, textural evidence suggests the authigenic formation of gypsum with SO42- sourced from anhydrite. Significant similarities in textures and sulfur isotope values to well-known evaporite successions of the Onega basin, western Russia, further supports the presence of evaporitic strata within the Peräpohja belt.
