  • The Nickel Mineralizationof the Rana Mafic Intrusion, Nordland, Norway
    • THE NICKEL MINERALIZATIONOF THE RANA MAFIC INTRUSION, NORDLAND, NORWAY. Rognvald Boyd and Carl 0. Mathiesen Norges geologiskeundersøkelse,Postboks 3006, 7001 Trondheim, Norway. NORGES GEOLOGISKE UNDERSØKELSE ABSTRACT The Råna synorogenicCaledonide intrusion in north Norway contains pentlandite+pyrrhotite+chalcopyrite+pyritedisseminationsgrading up tO 0.8% sulfide nickel in peridotite in the northwesternpart of the body. Peridotite and pyroxenite occur as bands and lenses within a peripheral zone mainly of norite, around a core mainly of quartz-norite.Crystal settling appears to have been an important process at Råna but over much of the intrusion primary structureshave been severely disturbed by the later Caledonian fold phases which also involved local overthrusting: these movements resulted in iniolding and thrustingof units of semipel- itic and calesilicate gneiss and black schist into the intrusion.The body has the form of an inverted, possibly truncated cone with its axiS plunging northwestwardsat a moderate angle. The peridotites show no obvioUs systematicvariation of sulfide or silicate mineralogy across strike. Locally, ass&iated with certain deformation zones, disseminationpasses into ma3sive mobilized sulfide ti with up to 5% nickel. The proximity of sulfide-bearingblack schists to mineralized rocks, the occurrence of graphite djsseminated in peridotite and other factors, suggest assimilationof sulfur from the Country rocks. Sulfur isotope studies do not, however, offer confirmationof the hypo- thesis that an external source ot sulfur nas had more than very local significanceat Råna. 1 NORGES GEOLOGISKE UNDERSØKELSE • INTRODUCTION The Råna mafic intrusion lies at approximately68°30'N, in steep mountainous terrain 20 km soutnwest of the iron-ore port of Narvik in north Norway (Fig.1).The present paper will give a brief description of the general geology of the complex, with a more detailed consider- ation of the sulfide-bearingareas - especially the main one at Bruvann (Fig.2) - and of the cenetic implicationsinvolved.

  • Ski Touring in the Narvik Region
    SKI TOURING IN THE NARVIK REGION TOP 5 © Mattias Fredriksson © Mattias Narvik is a town of 14 000 people situated in Nordland county in northern Norway, close to the Lofoten islands. It is also a region that serves as an excellent base for alpine ski touring and off-piste skiing. Here, you are surrounded by fjords, islands, deep valleys, pristine lakes, waterfalls, glaciers and mountain plateaus. But, first and foremost, wild and rugged mountains in seemingly endless terrain. Imagine standing on one of those Arctic peaks admiring the view just before you cruise down on your skis to the fjord side. WHY SKI TOURING IN THE NARVIK REGION? • A great variety in mountain landscapes, from the fjords in coastal Norway to the high mountain plateaus in Swedish Lapland. • Close to 100 high quality ski touring peaks within a one- hour drive from Narvik city centre. • Large climate variations within short distances, which improves the chances of finding good snow and weather. • A ski touring season that stretches from the polar night with its northern lights, to the late spring with never- ending days under the midnight sun. • Ascents and descents up to 1700 metres in vertical distance. • Some of the best chute skiing in the world, including 1200-metre descents straight down to the fjord. • Possibilities to do train accessed ski touring. • A comprehensive system of huts that can be used for hut-to-hut ski touring or as base camps. • 5 alpine skiing resorts within a one-hour car drive or train ride • The most recognised heli-skiing enterprise in Scandinavia, offering access to over 200 summits.

  • NARVIK – Norwegian Eldorado for Wreck-Divers Wrecks of Narvik
    NARVIK – Norwegian Eldorado for wreck-divers Wrecks of Narvik Text by Erling Skjold (history and diving) and Frank Bang (diving) Underwater photography by Frank Bang Ship photography by Erling Skjolds, NSA collection Translation by Michael Symes Dieter von Roeder The port of Narvik in north Norway was established around the export of iron-ore from Sweden. This was due to the very good harbour and its ice-free con- ditions. At the outbreak of World War II, Narvik was a strategically important harbour, and during the first few days of the war a very intense battle was fought out here between German, Norwegian and British naval forces. During this fighting several ships were sunk, both warships and civil merchant ships. Narvik harbour was transformed into a great ship ceme- tery, with wrecks sticking up out of the water every- where. Several of the ships were later salvaged, but many wrecks still remained. With its high density of wrecks, Narvik is an eldorado for wreck divers.

Distribution of Boreus westwoodi Hagen, 1866 and Boreus hyemalis (L., 1767) (Mecoptera) in Norway. Norwegian Journal of Entomology 58, 73–80. An extensive material collected during nearly fifty years adds new detailed information on the distribution of the winter active insects Boreus westwoodi Hagen, 1866 and B. hyemalis (L., 1767) in Norway. Since females are difficult to identify, the new data rely on males. Based on the revised Strand-system, the following geographical regions are new to B. westwoodi: Ø, BØ, VAY, ON, TEI, TEY, MRI, MRY, and TRY. For B. hyemalis, AK, BØ, TEI, RY, SFI, and NTI are new regions. While B. westwoodi is widespread in Norway, including the three northernmost counties, B. hyemalis seems to be restricted to the south, with the northernmost record in NTI. In Sweden, the situation is similar: B. westwoodi is widespread, while B. hyemalis has been recorded as far north as Västerbotten, at a latitude corresponding to the northernmost record in Norway. The known distribution of both species in Norway is presented on EIS-grid map. Key words: Boreus hyemalis, Boreus westwoodi, Mecoptera, distribution, Norway.
