4-dimensional Geological Modelling of the Skellefte District, Sweden
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Skellefte mining District is located in northern Sweden and comprises Palaeoproterozoic, metamorphosed, supracrustal rocks and associated intrusive rocks, which are all host to several ore deposits. Modelling was performed in the GoCAD software platform, using structural geology and petrology as well as magnetic, gravity, seismic, electric and electromagnetic geophysical data, in order to produce robust 3-dimensional models for the upper 3000 m of the Earth's crust in selected areas within the Skellefte District. Further interpretations from the regional structures and tectonics are providing a base for restoring the geological history of the district in time, the 4 dimension. * Corresponding author

New zircon data supporting models of short-lived igneous activity at 1.89 Ga in the western Skellefte District, central Fennoscandian Shield
New U-Th-Pb zircon data (SIMS) from three intrusive phases of the Palaeoproterozoic Viterliden intrusion in the western Skellefte District, central Fennoscandian Shield, dates igneous emplacement in a narrow time interval at about 1.89 Ga. A locally occurring quartz-plagioclase porphyritic tonalite, here dated at 1889± 3 Ma, is considered the youngest of the intrusive units, based on the new ag...

The objective of this research is to determine all processes in the magmatic evolution and related hydrothermal activities that created the volcanic rocks and associated ore-forming systems of the Bafq mining district. Several iron oxide-apatite (IOA) deposits were investigated in this area with a focus on the Sechahun ore deposit. The Bafq mining district is well known for hosting significan...
متن کاملA Feasibility Study of a Deep Exploration Project for Massive Sulphides in an Old Mining District
Simulation technique has been used for a feasibility study of a deep exploration project for massive sulphides in an old mining district, the Skellefte field. The outcome under very different conditions^has been studied. Under the specific conditions of the well known Skellefte field it is found to be possible to even calibrate the mathematical model. It is found that when the geology is not kn...
