  1. 1. Detecting Lithium Brine in Afghanistan Using Spaceborne Hyperspectral Data

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Torpikay Azizi; [2023-08-18]
    Keywords : PRISMA Hyperspectral data; lithium mineral deposits; lithium brine-rich deposits; Dashti-e- Nawar; boron deposits; Principal Component Analysis PCA ; supervised and unsupervised classification; spectral matching; spectral profile analysis; visible-near-infrared VNIR ; short-wave infrared SWIR Gypsum; Hectorite; Kaolinite; Lepidolite; lithium carbonate; lithium chloride;

    Abstract : The purpose of this thesis is to utilize hyperspectral remote sensing technology for the identification and evaluation of lithium mineral deposits in Afghanistan. Afghanistan boasts unique geological formations with substantial potential for lithium resources beneath its land crust. READ MORE

  3. 2. Enhancing Geophysical Applications with Electrical Resistivity Tomography Inversion : Uncovering the mysteries that lies beneath us

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Author : Anton Morian; [2023]
    Keywords : Resistivity inversion; Filtering; 3D visualisation;

    Abstract : Geophysical methods have been widely used to investigate the subsurface in various ap-plications, such as mineral exploration, geotechnical and environmental studies. Among these methods, electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) has gained popularity due to its non-invasive and high-resolution capability in mapping subsurface resistivity variations. READ MORE

  4. 3. Geological characterization of rock samples by LIBS and ME-XRT analytical techniques

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Geovetenskap och miljöteknik

    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

  5. 4. Geophysical Data from Norrbotten, Sweden - Evidence for the Presence of a Crustal Scale Fault?

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Geovetenskap och miljöteknik

    Author : Jimmy Markström; [2022]
    Keywords : Self-Organizing Maps; Magnetic Anomaly; Radioisotopes; Geological Faults;

    Abstract : The method of combining multiple geophysical, geological, or geochemical datasets can reveal patterns of otherwise hidden features in the Earth’s crust. This may aid in geological mapping, locating economic mineral deposits and for general anomaly/feature detection. READ MORE

  6. 5. The Structural Architecture of the Barsele Area, Sweden : Characterising the deformation events and mineralisation

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

    Author : Jaide Derbyshire; [2021]
    Keywords : Barsele; Structural Geology; Mineralisation; Deformation;

    Abstract : Located at an important intersect between orogenic Au deposits in Sweden’s Gold Line and volcanicmassive sulphide (VMS) deposits in the Skellefte Mining District, the Barsele area is of high interest.Currently, the Barsele deposit consists of the Norra VMS deposit and 3 intrusive-hosted orogenic Audeposits: Avan, Central, and Skiråsen which are hosted in a 1876 ± 10 Ma early orogenic granodiorite(Thomas, et al.
