  1. 1. Electrolytic Reduction of Iron Oxides in Molten Salt with a Mineralogical Investigation of Magnetite Ore of Tapuli

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Elina Fernö; [2023]
    Keywords : Iron reduction; trace element analysis on magnetite ore; molten salt electrolysis; sodium hydroxide electrolyte; NaOH; greenhouse gas; carbon dioxide; CO2; green ironmaking; Järnreduktion; spårelementanalys på magnetitmalm; smältelektrolys; elektrolys i natriumhydroxid; NaOH; elektrolyt; växthusgas; koldioxid; CO2; grön järnframställning;

    Abstract : This master's thesis covers an investigation of the reduction behavior of different iron oxides when electrolytically reduced with molten salt electrolysis (MSE). The tested iron oxides were wüstite (FeO), hematite (Fe2O3), magnetite (Fe3O4) and magnetite ore concentrate from the Tapuli deposit in Pajala, Norrbotten, Sweden. READ MORE

  3. 2. A Photogrammetric Workflow to Produce 3D-Models of Geological Samples

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Mineralogi, petrologi och tektonik

    Author : Fanny Bjugger; [2023]
    Keywords : photogrammetry; S-f-M; digital 3D models; geoscience; rock samples; earth sciences;

    Abstract : Photogrammetry and Structure-from-Motion (S-f-M) is a low-cost method of producing digital 3D models of rock samples that can be used for many different research and educational purposes. A 3D model of a delicate rock sample would enable the preservation of the sample and reduce the need of physical manipulation. READ MORE

  4. 3. Baggalútar from Hvalfjörður (Iceland): Enigmatic spheroids of hydrothermally altered basaltic tephra

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Mineralogi, petrologi och tektonik

    Author : Emmie Djuse; [2022]
    Keywords : Baggalútar; Iceland; basalt; Hvalfjörður; zeolites; volcanic spherulite; spheroids; Baggalútar; Island; basalt; Hvalfjörður; zeoliter; vulkaniska sfäruliter; sfäroider;

    Abstract : Baggalútar are well-rounded spheroids that typically measures 16-18 mm in size and have a brownreddish appearance. They can be found in the Hvalfjörður bay in SW Iceland. READ MORE

  5. 4. EBSD Investigation of High-Temperature Magnetite from Apatite-Iron-Oxide Deposits: Implications for the Formation of Giant Kiruna-Type Deposits

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Mineralogi, petrologi och tektonik

    Author : Jens Henriksson; [2022]
    Keywords : Kiruna-type deposit; electron backscattered diffraction; crystal settling; Fe-O systematics; crystal alignment;

    Abstract : European iron production is to a large extent dependant on massive Kiruna type apatite-iron ore deposits. In this contribution, high-temperature magnetite samples from apatite-iron-oxide deposits are investigated by means of Electron Backscattered Diffraction. However, the origin of Kiruna-type deposits is still unresolved. READ MORE

  6. 5. The Fe-oxides (mineralogical, chemical, and textural) variation in the Leveäniemi deposit using micro-analytical tools for unraveling of primary features and metamorphic recrystallisation

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Adrian Larsson; [2022]
    Keywords : Leveäniemi; Magnetite; Hematite; Iron oxides; Iron oxide apatite;

    Abstract : The Leveäniemi iron oxide apatite (IOA) deposit, mined by LKAB, is located in Norrbotten, northern Sweden. The deposit has a partially more complex mineralogy than the neighbouring and more famous IOA deposits of Kiirunavaara and Malmberget. READ MORE
