    Author : Hanna Kervall; [2021]
    Keywords : EGS; deep drilling; geothermal; petrology; petrophysical properties; Sveconorwegian; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : The ability to evaluate the geothermal potential at a depth of five to six kilometres in the crystalline bedrock is crucial for the EGS-technology to be utilized in the future. This work focuses primarily on presenting expected geological conditions at great depths in southwestern Scania. The study is based on information from E. READ MORE

    Keywords : Sveconorwegian; metamorphic petrology; mapping; coronitic metagabbro; microtextures; Eastern Segment; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : The analyzed area exposes a deep underthrusting lower plate of the Sveconorwegian orogen and facilitates studying of an elsewhere hidden portion of the Earth. Petrographic and structural studies of different metamorphic rock types within the southern Eastern Segment, Sveconorwegian Province, Sweden, were carried out to better understand the regional metamorphism and deformation history.
