Blötberget is a locality situated in Ludvika Municipality, Dalarna County, Sweden with 428 inhabitants in 2010.[1]

Blötberget is part of the Ludvika Mines, and lies in the Bergslagen mineral district of central Sweden. Bergslagen is known for the significant content of high-quality iron-oxide occurrences and historically has contributed to the Swedish economy and well-being for over 800 years. [2]

Numerous seismic surveys have been conducted in the area for deep-targeting the primary deposits and understanding their host-rock structures.[3]
