Sørøya Island is divided administratively between 2 municipalities (kommuner): Hasvik and Hammerfest municipalities.

Island is mainly composed of metasedimentary rocks, which are now known to extend in age from Late Mesoproterozoic to Sillurian (Kirkland et al. 2005; 2006). They were extensively folded and metamorphosed during Caledonian orogeny, but the lower units were initially deformed during Early Neoproterozoic, Sveconorwegian event (Daly et al. 1991; Kirkland et al. 2006). The lower parts of the tectonostratigraphy were intruded by large plutons of layered gabbro, diorite and minor ultrabasic rocks at c.570-560 Ma (Roberts et al. 2010).

Geochronology

Mineralization age: Neoproterozoic to Devonian : 574 ± 5 Ma to 372 ± 98 Ma

Important note: This table is based only on rock and mineral ages recorded on mindat.org for this locality and is not necessarily a complete representation of the geochronology, but does give an indication of possible mineralization events relevant to this locality. As more age information is added this table may expand in the future. A break in the table simply indicates a lack of data entered here, not necessarily a break in the geologic sequence. Grey background entries are from different, related, localities.
