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 p...

The recognition of grain boundaries in deformed rocks from images of thin-sections or polished slabs is an essential step in describing and quantifying various features and analysis, which is usually achieved by image processing procedures. Recently, researchers from geoscience and computer science focused on this issue and many methods have been proposed. We begin with an application of minera...

In structural geology it is often assumed that folds are cylindrical. However, most structures are conical to some degree. Due to the lack of software capable of accurately estimating the best fit cone from a set of oriented data, we developed a Mathematica application capable of (1) plotting oriented data (lines and planes) on an equal area stereonet, (2) calculating the orientation matrix, th...
