Fri tekst
Mons Petter-forekomsten er delt inn i Mons Petter I og II, og var den første malm som det ble produsert fra i Sulitjelma. Mons Petter II ble påvist i 1971 etter omfattende diamantboring og andre undersøkelser. Rik forekomst, lett produserbar malm med enkel transport og mektigheter opp i 12 m. Malmen er deformert ved en større isoklinalfolding. En rekke borkjerner fra mange borhull ligger på lager i Sulitjelma. Stien, R. 1993. To gamle tipper fra stollinnslag i ca 300 m.o.h. rett ovenfor Sulitjelma Grubers administrasjonsbygg prøvetas. Furuhaug, L. 1994.

Abstract:
The eugeoclinal rocks of the Sulitjelma region occup a large depression in the Norwegian Caldonodrd betwwen the Nasafjell tectonic window of Precambrian rocks in the south and the Tysfjord window in the north. The age of the rocks is thought to be Cambro-Silurian. The regionl metamophism is mainly in greenschist facies in the lower units, amphibolite facies in the Gasak Nappe and greenschist to amphibolite facies in the Fauske Nappe. Some of the largest sulphide deposits in Norway are located near Sulitjelma. The different types of mineralizations occurring in the region are briefly described.
