Nodules of iron ore form under the surface of bog vegetation due to the action of bacteria. Scandinavia, Iceland, Greenland and the site in Canada where vikings lived all had bog iron. The vikings would make charcoal, preferably out of hardwoods (presumably birch in the far north where none other hardwoods grew). They would use that to smelt the iron ore into bloom iron and then hammer that into wrought iron nails and washers for their ships. They could also 'sew' the planks together using spruce roots.
