The Mofjell project: summary and conclusions
The Mofjell project commenced in 2008 as a cooperation between GEXCO Norge AS, the county administration of Nordland and NGU. As GEXCO faced financial difficulties the external funding ended in 2009. The project area included Mofjellet and the eastern part of Plurdalen, an area with a large potentia...
