  1. 1. Character and Evolution of Ore Mineralisation in the Te-Rich Enåsen Au-Cu Deposit, Central Sweden

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Simon Pieslinger; [2023]
    Keywords : ore geology; partial melting; quenching textures; symplectite; tellurides; critical metals;

    Abstract : The Enåsen gold deposit is located in Gävleborg county in central Sweden. Mining operations at Enåsen took place from 1984 to 1991 with Au as the main target for exploitation. The deposit has been interpreted as a metamorphosed Palaeoproterozoic analogue to near-recent epithermal Au mineralisations of a high sulphidation type. READ MORE

  2. 2. Metamorphic microtextures and mineral assemblages in orthogneisses in NW Skåne – how do they correlate with technical properties?

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionen

    Author : Maria Eleni Taxopoulou; [2020]
    Keywords : granitic gneiss; Eastern Segment; Söderåsen; rock quality; quantitative analyses; grain size; aspect ratio; circularity; mineralogy; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Glacifluviala avlagringar har varit de vanligaste källorna för byggmaterial i Sverige under de senaste decennierna. De är dock ändliga resurser som måste bevaras eftersom de också fungerar som akvifärer. READ MORE

  3. 3. Metamorphic paragenesis and P-T conditions in garnet amphibolite from the Median Segment of the Idefjorden Terrane, Lilla Edet

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionen

    Author : Anna Sartell; [2019]
    Keywords : P-T conditions; Sveconorwegian orogeny; Idefjorden Terrane; Median Segment; Göta Älv Shear Zone; garnet amphibolite; upper amphibolite facies; partial melting; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : The Sveconorwegian orogeny (c. 1 Ga) lead to the recrystallization of large parts of southwestern Sweden, with widespread metamorphism as well as local migmatization. READ MORE

  4. 4. Pressure-Temperature-time Constraints on the Deep Subduction of the Seve Nappe Complex in Jämtland and southern Västerbotten, Scandinavian Caledonides

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Johanna Holmberg; [2017]
    Keywords : Seve Nappe Complex; COSC-1; Raman spectroscopy; QuiG barometry; kyanite-garnet gneiss; Lu-Hf garnet geochronology; Seveskollan; COSC-1; Raman spektroskopering; QuiG barometri; kyanit-granatförande gnejs; Lu-Hf granat geokronologi;

    Abstract : The Scandinavian Caledonides are defined by long transported thrust sheets emplaced in a nappe stratigraphic succession onto the Paleozoic Baltica platform, as a result of the collision between the paleo-continents Baltica and Laurentia. This Palaeozoic collisional orogen is nowadays exposed at mid-crustal levels, thus provides an excellent ground for in situ studies of mountain building processes. READ MORE

  5. 5. Qualitative and quantitative petrography of meta-mafic rocks at Ölme, in the Eastern Segment of the Sveconorwegian orogen

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för geologiska vetenskaper

    Author : Diana Carlsson; [2015]
    Keywords : metamorphism; high pressure; amphibolite; granulite; gabbro; metagabbro; garnet-amphibolite; complex coronitic textures; symplectite; Eastern Segment; Transitional section;

    Abstract : Meta-mafic intrusions with an intrusion age of 1.6-0.9 Ga are found along a north-south trend in theTransitional section of the Eastern Segment in Sweden. These intrusions are garnet-bearing and thus anexception to other meta-mafic intrusions found in Sweden. READ MORE
