Stefan Luth Email & Phone Number

Working at the Geological Survey of Sweden at the dep. of Mineral Resources as a structural geologist and 3D modeller. Currently leading the project "Riddarhyttan 3D" to unravel its structurally complex geology hosting polymetallic deposits containing iron, copper, zinc, cobalt and REE's by collecting and interpreting geological, geochemical and geophysical data. Involved as a researcher in EU-projects, such as "X-mine" using innovative XCT-XRF drill core scanning technology, "Smart Exploration" and the ongoing "FUTURE project" developing new geophysial UAV tools to be applied in combination with 3D seismics for mineral exploration (pilots in Sweden in South Africa). In addition, I am currently supervising a PhD-student from Uppsala University visualizing 3D magnetic fabrics for strain indicators in sandbox models, 2 MSc-students at LTU, 2 MSc-students at VU-Amsterdam, and occasionally give lectures and field trips on structural geology and 3D geological modelling. I am a fanatic user of Leapfrog and Skua-Gocad combining new and legacy datasets from geological mapping, drilling, geochemistry and geophysics to obtain a better understanding of mineral systems within a tectonic framework.Citation from his Ph.D. supervisor Dr. E. Willingshofer: "Stefan successfully defended his Ph.D. thesis on the complex Alpine-geodynamic-setting by integrating fieldwork and lithopshere-scale analogue modeling. The work demanded a high level of creativity and intellectual power, and was quoted "excellent" by all 5 reviewers. Stefan enjoys to interact with experts from other disciplines, and to emphasize the social need for understanding earth processes. He has the ability to set-up and lead research both in academia or industry."

Listed skills include Geology, Earth Science, Modeling, Structural Geology, and 28 others.
