  1. 1. Petrophysical Properties of Rocks in Central Kiruna Mining District, Sweden

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Simon Peter Dagbui; [2023]
    Keywords : Kiruna mining district; Common earth model; petrophysics; density; AMS; complex electrical resistivity; NRM; magnetization; IOA; Kirunavaara Mineralization;

    Abstract : High economic and metallogenic significance of northern Norrbotten ore district in Sweden which hosts Kiruna mining district makes it a very important ore district in the world. Northern Norrbotten ore district contributes a combined 90 percent of iron production in Europe. READ MORE

    Abstract : One of the major challenges in earth sciences and mineral exploration has been to determine with high accuracy and at a fast rate the elemental composition as well as the general chemistry of a rock sample. Many analytical techniques e.g. READ MORE

  4. 3. 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

  5. 4. 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

  6. 5. Structural controls on the shear zone hosted, IOCG-style Kiskamavaara Cu-Co-Au mineralization

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

    Author : Nicolai Metzger; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Sweden is the largest producer of iron ore in the European Union, as well as amongst the top producers for base and precious metals. Much of its mineral wealth derives from northern Norrbotten, type locality of the Kiruna-type-magnetite-apatite ores. READ MORE
