Engebøfjellet

Mineral resource summary

NGU

RutilNett

  • Based on 15,000 m of core drilling a mineral resource of 400 million tons of ore-quality eclogite has been identified. The average rutile grade is 4%, varying from less than 2 % to 6-7 %.
  • Additional "probable ore resources" are indicated at the continuation of the deposit at depth, and large amounts of "possible ore resources" are indicated by a gravimetric survey combined with surface geological mapping 6-10 km eastwards from Engebøfjellet (see summary in Korneliussen 2001).
  • Detailed core-log information and analytical data is available on request from either county geologist Bjørn Russenes (B.F.Russenes@sfk.no) or from NGU (Are.Korneliussen@ngu.no).
