    Sammanfattning : Serpentinization is a metamorphic low-temperature geological process, involving a series of chemical reactions that hydrate ultramafic rocks into serpentines and other minerals such as magnetite and brucite. Moreover, the process produces heavily reducing and highly alkaline fluids together with molecular hydrogen (H2) and methane (CH4), which have the capacity to support chemosynthetic microbial life.

  2. 2. När började plattektoniken? : bevis för plattektoniska processer i geologisk tid

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionen

    Författare :Jon Gustafsson; [2015]
    Nyckelord :tektoniska indikatorer; ofiolit; prekambrium; plattektonik; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Plate tectonic processes shapes our earth due to volcanism, related to divergent and convergent plate motions. When did plate tectonics begin and how can we trace plate tectonic processes throughout time? This Bachelor thesis address and discuss different plate tectonic indicators and their reliability.
