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 naturresurserAbstract : 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

2. Petrophysical Properties of Rocks in Central Kiruna Mining District, Sweden
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperAbstract : 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

3. Petrography of impactites from the Dellen impact structure, Sweden
University essay from Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionenAbstract : Identification and characterization of shock-metamorphic features in hypervelocity impact craters is important for our understanding of how shock waves interact with geologic materials and how impact craters form, which in turn is essential to our understanding of what role impact cratering played in the development of our solar system. Of particular interest are accessory minerals like apatite, which contains various volatiles that can affect the atmosphere of a body, or magnetite whose magnetic properties constitute a remote sensing indicator which allows us to study and understand the internal structures of distant bodies.

4. Baggalútar from Hvalfjörður (Iceland): Enigmatic spheroids of hydrothermally altered basaltic tephra
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Mineralogi, petrologi och tektonikAbstract : 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. 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 tektonikAbstract : 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
