1. 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
2. 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
3. Temporal evolution of historic mafic lavas from Fogo, Cape Verde
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperSammanfattning : The volcanic Island of Fogo that is situated near the end of the southern island chain in the archipelago of Cape Verde is one of the most active oceanic volcanoes in the world. The purpose of this study was to investigate temporal variations in lavas from Fogo by using whole rock major and trace elements and describe trends in magmatic differentiation, melting systematics and mantle source compositions.

4. A geochemical characterization of the lower part of the Miocene shield-building lavas on Gran Canaria
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionenSammanfattning : Ocean islands offer a great potential to provide information about mantle processes and the composition of the mantle. Gran Canaria is located in the centre of the Canary Island Archipelago and is well suited for such studies. A comprehensive study of the lower Miocene shield-building lavas is performed for this thesis. LÄS MER
