1. Paleomagnetic and Thermomagnetic Studies on Rock Samples from COSC - 1 Drilling Project
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/GeofysikSammanfattning : The COSC-1 borehole located in the Lower Seve nappe of the Central Scandinavian Caledonides is intended to study the tectonic evolution of the Paleozoic orogen. The drilling project reached a depth of 2495.8m and obtained samples from different lithologal units of mica schist, amphibolite, gneiss, and mylonitic gneisses. LÄS MER
2. Lejarfjället Garnet(?) Peridotite – Origin and Petrological Characterization of Symplectitic Aggregates in Ultramafic Rocks
Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Mineralogi, petrologi och tektonikSammanfattning : Ultramafic rocks are abundant in the Earth’s mantle but rare on the surface. Since no in-situ samples from the mantle can be collected, mantle rocks provide knowledge of mechanisms operating in the mantle and large-scale processes that brought them up to the surface. LÄS MER
3. The “ultramafic” Intrusion’s within the peridotite from Härbergsdalen : Petrological characterization of infiltration record within the lithospheric mantle
Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Mineralogi, petrologi och tektonikSammanfattning : The mantle constitutes ~80% of Earths volume, however, due to its location deep beneath Earth’s surface the mantle is inaccessible to study in situ. Despite this, we still have information about its composition thanks to seismic studies which haven proven the mantle to be in generally homogenous and dominated by a rock called peridotite. LÄS MER
4. Unraveling the Tectonic History of the Aurek Metagabbro within the Seve Nappe Complex, Scandinavian Caledonides
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperSammanfattning : The Scandinavian Caledonides form a mountain range comprising nappe stacks of numerous far-travelled thrust sheets. The thrust sheets consist of diverse lithologies representing pre- and synorogenic sedimentary and igneous rocks subsequently metamorphosed to various degrees, from the Late Neoproterozoic to Middle Devonian.

5. Structural Reconnaissance Mapping of the Nasa Basement Window, Southern Norrbotten Caledonides
Master-uppsats, Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurserSammanfattning : Too few documentative descriptions exist from the reactivated Proterozoic Nasa Basement window in Sweden. This re-exposed crustal piece predominantly consisting of 1.8 Ga granite and volcanic basement rock lack structural evidences on maps. LÄS MER
