Lemma 89.6.3. Let (A, \mathfrak m) be a local Noetherian ring. Let X be an algebraic space over A. Assume

  1. A is analytically unramified (Algebra, Definition 10.162.9),

  2. X is locally of finite type over A,

  3. X \to \mathop{\mathrm{Spec}}(A) is étale at every point of codimension 0 in X.

Then the normalization of X is finite over X.

Proof. Choose a scheme U and a surjective étale morphism U \to X. Then U \to \mathop{\mathrm{Spec}}(A) satisfies the assumptions and hence the conclusions of Resolution of Surfaces, Lemma 54.11.5. \square
