Rapporten gjer greie for moglege vasskraftplanar i Bjotveitelv og Erdalselv, omtalar brukarinteressene i området og vurderar konsekvensane ved ei eventuell gjennomfØring av prosjektet. utbygging av vassdraga er vurdert i ! alternativ med plassering av kraftstasjon ved Brimnes, Erdal og Øvre Eidfjord. Kap. 5 inneheld ei kort oppsummering, med eit skjema der det er fØreteke ei klassifisering av prosjektområdet sin verdi/bruk for visse interesser uavhengig av evt. utbygging. Vidare er det i tabellen fØreteke ei vurdering av konsekvensane ved ei utbygging etter alt. A, B, C og D, utgreia i kap. 3 i vassdragsrapporten. Variant av alt. D med felt i Veig utbygd ~il Øvre Eidfjord (Staupo kraftverk) er ikkje nærare vurdert i rapporten, då Veigva_s.l3.draget er vedteke varig verna mot kraft­ utbygging. Når det gjeld konsekvensvruderingane vil vi understreka at desse er fØrebeIse, og har skjedd ut frå ei vurdering av prosjektet isolert. Særleg når det gjeld interessene naturvern, friluftsliv, vilt og kulturminne, er det naudsynt å sjå prosjek­ tet i samanheng med andre Samla Plan-prosjekt, evt. også verna vassdrag i området. Dei fØrebeIse konsekvensvurderingane kan bii endra når ein fØretek regionale vurderingar der alle prosjekt/ vassdrag i eit område blir samanlikna. Vassdragsrapporten er samanstilt og redigert av Samla Plan­ medarbeidar i Hordaland fylke, Johannes HØvik. Ei rekkje fag­ medarbeidarar har teke del på ulike fagområde i prosjektet, jfr.

  • Minerals of the Axinite Group from Norwegian Localities
    Minerals of the axinite group from Norwegian localities Fred Steinar Nordrum, Alf Olav Larsen og Muriel Erambert Introduction The mineral known today as axinite was first described by Schreiber in 1781, but thought to be a variety of schorl. During the next two decades the mineral was referred to under different names: violet schorl, yanolite, thumerstein, thumite and glasschorl. The name axinite was first applied by Hauy in 1799, in reference to the common axe-like shape of the crystals. The axinite group minerals are complex cyclosilicates. The three Ca-dominant end-members are ferroaxinite, manganaxinite and magnesia-axinite, named after the second most abundant cations, and with the general formula Ca4(Fe,Mn,Mg),AI4B2Sia030(OH),. Tinzenite has a Ca deficiency, compensated by an excess of Mn, and with the formula Ca2Mn.A14B2Sia030(OH),. The definition of ferroaxinite, manganaxinite and tinzenite was established by Sanero & Gollardi (1968), while magnesio-axinite was described by Jobbins et al. (1975). Axinite from Norway was first described by Schumacher (1801) who reported the mineral both from the silver deposits at Kongsberg and from Torbjlilrnsbo iron mine at Arendal. Keilhau (1838) mentioned axinite from Nikkerud iron mine near Drammen. Goldschmidt (1911) thoroughly described axinite from Arvoll near Oslo, and his chemical analysis showed that the mineral was close to the manganaxinite end member. He also mentioned another axinite locality at Arvoll, as well as Nikkerud (Aserud) near Drammen. Munster (1883) mentioned axinite from the Kongsberg silver deposits, while Neumann (1944) described axinite from several localities within the Kongsberg silver deposits, and published the chemical composition of an axinite from Golles Hulfe in der Noth mine (358 m level).
