This map is the first national map showing the depth in meters to the uppermost redox interface in sediments of Quaternary age. The redox interface indicates the transition from the oxidized to the reduced geochemical environment in sediments. The redox interface was identified according to the colors of the sediments in 11,999 wells and is shown for 1x1 km grid-cells. For grid-cells with multiple site information, the depth to the redox interface is indicated by an average value. For grid-cells without any field information, the depth of the redox interface was established based on information about 1) geological setting, 2) morphology, 3) depths to redox boundaries at nearby field sites, 4) GEUS surface geology map, 5) topography, and 6) the pre-quaternary surface. The method for this first national redox-map and the data used is described in GEUS report no. 93 (2006) entitled Beregning af nitrat-reduktionsfaktorer for zonen mellem rodzonen og frem til vandløbet. Data og metode for 1.generationskortet (in Danish). The Redox map is also described in Vand og Jord (2011) 18: 37-39 (in Danish).

The regional-scale gamma spectrometry data are associated with two collaboration projects involving the Geological Survey of Greenland (GGU) and the Danish Atomic Energy Commission’s Research Establishment. The projects' objectives were to outline areas with an elevated uranium potential in two regions of Greenland: The airborne radiometric surveys in southern and central West Greenland in 1975/76 and the SYDURAN project in South Greenland in 1979-1982. To acquire the data, four-channel gamma ray spectrometers were mounted upon an aircraft (1975/76 surveys) and a helicopter (SYDURAN project). The vehicles flew along shoreline and valley contour lines at low average terrain clearances of 100 and 50 m respectively. The data were recorded without GPS systems, and so positioning was estimated when known landmarks were passed. This means that the dataset is sparse and inhomogeneous, and the spatial accuracy remains low. The gamma-spectrometer had been calibrated at a pad facility at Risø, which enabled the conversion of recorded counts per second into simulated concentrations of radioactive components in the surface of the overflown terrain. Large parts of the data (surveys from 1975/76) were originally stored on magnetic tapes and data were transferred to datafiles in 2003 to make them digital accessible. Most data were retrieved and are now available as ASCII files.

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.

A series of Aster band ratios highlighting mineral distributions. Band ratio color composite images to distinguish variability of lithology in the area. Preprocessing of the Aster scenes encompasses atmospheric, radiometric and topographic corrections before masking non-outcrop pixels and generating the final mosaic. The calibrated radiance data is converted to apparent surface reflectance using a radiative transfer program, Atmospheric and Topographic Correction (ATCOR-3), in rugged terrain mode. The ATCOR rugged terrain mode utilizes a surface elevation model to adjust illumination levels. Calibration and adjusting the apparent surface reflectance values from the ATCOR-3 processing was not feasible due to lack of ground-based reflectance measurements.

Ujarassiorit is a mineral hunt competition open to residents of Greenland. Participants can submit rock samples from Greenland to the Ministry of Minerals Ressources (MMR) for evaluation and may be selected for a prize.

The Raw stream sediment samples dataset is data as they have been delivered from the laboratories, i.e. values below detection limit often spelled as negative but zero may also apply. The data are not controlled by a geologist. In addition, they may not have been reported.

The dataset contains rock sample geochemistry collected from 1957 to 2007 in south to central west Greenland analyzed with different methods that have been published in 3 reports.

Intrusions and magmatic complexes are central, when it comes to an assessment of the economic geological potential of a region. There are many of these in Greenland, and only a few of them have been examined in detail for their economic potential. In Nielsen (2002), tertiary intrusions and complexes in East Greenland were described, and later on information on intrusions and magmatic complexes in all of Greenland, were modelled based on the same methodology. The information has been compiled by GEUS geologists.

This view presents data selected from the geochemical mapping of North Greenland that are relevant for an evaluation of the potential for zinc mineralisation: CaO, K2O, Ba, Cu, Sr, Zn. The data represent the most reliable analytical values from 2469 stream sediment and 204 soil samples collected and analysed over a period from 1978 to 1999 plus a large number of reanalyses in 2011. The compiled data have been quality controlled and calibrated to eliminate bias between methods and time of analysis as described in Thrane et al., 2011. In the present dataset, all values below lower detection limit are indicated by the digit 0. Sampling The regional geochemical surveys undertaken in North Greenland follows the procedure for stream sediment sampling given in Steenfelt, 1999. Thrane et al., 2011 give more information on sampling campaigns in the area. The sample consists of 500 g sediment collected into paper bags from stream bed and banks, alternatively soil from areas devoid of streams. The sampling density is not consistent throughout the covered area and varies from regular with 1 sample per 30 to 50 km2 to scarce and irregular in other areas. Analyses were made on screened < 0.1 mm or <0.075 mm grain size fractions.
