  1. 1. PGE Geochemistry and Mineralogy of Dunite, Chromitite, and Laterite Samples from the Acoje Ophiolite Block, Philippines

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Geovetenskap och miljöteknik

    Author : Michelle Dossey; [2023]
    Keywords : PGM; PGE; laterite; limonite; chromitite; dunite; platinum group minerals; platinum group elements; Acoje; Philippines;

    Abstract : Ni-laterites have the potential to become unconventional ore deposits for platinum group elements (PGE). This study was conducted to determine enrichment trends of PGE as a result of the Ni-laterization process. READ MORE

  3. 2. NUDE (APRÈS LE BAIN): An Inter-Disciplinary Technical Study of an Oil Painting on Cardboard by Pierre Bonnard

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för kulturvård

    Author : Victoria Skalleberg; [2020-08-05]
    Keywords : Bonnard; paper conservation; spectroscopy; material identification;

    Abstract : In this master thesis in paper conservation, an oil painting on cardboard (WL84, Gothenburg Museum of Art) by French artist Pierre Bonnard (1867-1947) is investigated. The painting shows signs of degradation in the form of staining, pigment loss, and discolored varnish. READ MORE

  4. 3. Impactites from the Hiawatha crater, North-West Greenland

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för geologiska vetenskaper

    Author : Jacob Gustafsson; [2020]
    Keywords : Hiawatha; impact crater; Cape York; Baffin Bay; Greenland Ice Sheet; Younger Dryas; meteorite; impactite; organic carbon; conifer; vitrinite reflectance; Ro; cellular texture; chromite; chromium isotope; toasted quartz; ballen quartz; melted carbonate; granular zircon; planar deformation feature;

    Abstract : The recent discovery of the 31-km-wide Hiawatha impact crater has raised unanswered questions about its age, impactor and highly unusual organic carbon component. Previous research suggests a fractionated iron meteorite impactor, a probable maximum 3–2.4 Ma impact age and a possible Younger Dryas impact age. READ MORE

  5. 4. Cr-spinels in the Franklinian Mobile Belt : a geochemical record of Paleozoic tectonics

    Abstract : The chemical compositions of Cr-spinel extracted from mafic and ultramafic rocks collected on Ellesmere Island in the Arctic Canadian Archipelago were obtained through electron microprobe analyses. The extensively altered rocks are sampled from rock units in the Franklinian MobileBelt, which is representative of a Paleozoic tectonically active oceanic regime of which little is presently known.
