Abstract
The chemical, mineralogical and structural properties of the Eocambrian limestone at Norra Hede in the province of Härjedalen have been investigated. This limestone has a small content of carbon and bituminous matter. The proportions of Ca : Mg in the carbonaceous cement are 5,77 : 1. The content of arenaceous matter is relatively great, consisting partly of drifted material. The limestone is laminated with alternating light and dark layers. There are also structures emanating from slumping and flow casts.
Some of the limestone layers are intensely folded in isoclinal folds according to a folding axis in N.E. direction. The main mass of sediments constitute the northern limb of a larger anticlinal with a north-westerly folding axis.
