    The regional aeromagnetic datasets were acquired from the Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research (AWI), Bremerhaven, Germany, in four field campaigns along the coastal regions of Northeast Greenland from 1993-1996. The line spacing ranges both in inline and crossline direction from 10-40 km and the levels range up to 3700 m. Presented maps are based on data reprocessed by GEUS.

    The map is based on selected seismic data up to 2001. The map shows the structural conditions at depth for the 'Top Kalk' surface, from the central to the eastern part of the Danish North Sea. 'Top Kalk' denotes the surface which forms the basis of the Tertiary deposits (except Denmark). The map is described in GEUS Bulletin No. 13. 2007.

    The dataset contains outlines of archived historical unpublished geological maps and sections of Greenland mostly created by GGU and GEUS but also some other institutes from 1916 onwards at various scales.

  • Categories  

    Results from laboratory analyses of related to monitoring the quality of water wells and drinkng water taps in household. This dataset is part of GEUS' nation-wide database for shallow boreholes, the common public database and is part of Denmarks Environmental Portal. The database is publicly available and is continually updated.

    The geophysical data available on the Greenland Mineral Resources Portal are both released company data and data acquired based on public funding (AEM and Aeromag surveys). The AEM Greenland 1994-1998 project, encompassed high resolution detailed multi-parameter surveys (electromagnetic, magnetic and partly radiometric) in the years 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, and 1998 survey 1 and survey 2 producing a total of 75 000 line kilometres. The Aeromag projects, encompassed high resolution magnetic surveys conducted in 1992, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2001, 2012 and 2013 producing a total of more than 550 000 line kilometres. The projects were financed by the governments of Greenland and Denmark. More detailed information on the available geophysical date is given in Geology and Ore No. 22.

    Greenland mineral assessment workshops have been held on Sedimentary-hosted Copper, type: redbed-, revett- and reduced-facies type in 2009, Various Rare Earth Elements deposit types in 2010 (this workshop was not carried out according to the 'three-part quantitative assessment' method), Sedimentary-hosted zinc SEDEX- and MVT-type in 2011, Magmatic nickel; komatiite-hosted, contact- and conduit-type in 2012 and Vein- and skarn type Tungsten in 2013 and Orogenic gold type in 2014. Most of the workshops, besides the one on rare earth elements, have been following the processes and methodologies used in the 'three-part quantitative assessment' method of the U.S. Geological Survey described by Singer (1993). The method does not define deposits or provide mineral resource or reserve estimates according to industrial or international recognised certified standards. The objective is to produce a probabilistic estimate of unknown/undiscovered deposits and corresponding probabilistic estimates of the total amount of metals down to one kilometre depth. The estimates do not take into account economic, technical, social or environmental factors. In the 'three-part quantitative assessment' method, an expert panel reviewed and discussed all available knowledge and data for a specific region (Tract) to assess the possibility of finding new undiscovered deposits within this Tract. The expert panels consisted of geologists from universities, research institutions, Surveys as well as private exploration and mining companies. The experts have either expertise in/worked with the deposit type in focus, with the regional and/or local geology relevant for the tracts being assessed or have expertise from exploration/mining projects for the deposit type in focus elsewhere in the world. One or two international top-experts on the mineral deposit type in focus for the different workshops have also participated in the workshop. After reviewing the available knowledge and data the members of the panel made their individual estimates (bids) of the number of undiscovered deposits they believed could be found under the best circumstances in a tract. The bids are based on the characteristics derived from descriptive mineral deposit models and a number of key-literature on the mineralisation type. In several of the workshops, critical elements have also been considered in the mineralising system (e.g. McCuaig & Hronsky 2014) associated with the deposit type in focus, when carrying out the bids. A panel discussion of the bids led to a consensus bid, which was used as input to a statistical Monte Carlo simulation. Based on established grade-/tonnage models of e.g. known tungsten deposits worldwide, this simulation can provide a prediction on how much undiscovered metals could be found within a Tract. The 'Tracts' are spatial polygons that define a certain area that was found to be permissive for the concerned mineral deposit type and which constitutes the same level of geology, knowledge and data coverage. Tracts are named with a unique name, tract area is given in square kilometre and consensus bids from team under N90, N50, N10, N05 and N01 headings of undiscovered metals deposits at different confidence levels. The statistics from the Monte Carlo simulation is shown under the headings Numbers of unknown deposits and Deposit density.

    The place names data set is from the book 'Northern East Greenland's research history and place names' by A.K. Higgins, which GEUS published in 2010, with associated maps which have now been converted to web GIS format. Via free text search, you can find the place names with their explanations and their location on the map.
