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.

The geological maps of Denmark on a scale of 1:400,000 focus on the Danish basin and its geological structures. The map includes areas that extend from the geological age 'Basis Kalk' and the Kalk Gruppen. The 'Basis Kalk' map shows the depth in metres, where 'Basis Kalk' denotes the area that forms the basis for all layers younger than the Early Cretaceous. Over the majority of the mapped area, this surface is level with the base of the Kalk Group, but where the limestone is eroded away, the surface is equal to the base of the Quaternary. The depth to 'Basis Kalk' is calculated as the depth to the base of the deposits younger than Denmark plus the thickness of the Kalk group. The map is published in DGU Map Series no. 29 from 1991, where further information about the mapping can be obtained.

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 geologist and will be augmented through more information forthcoming through GEUS and company activities. Only data released to the public will be available to external users over the internet.

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.

Scree samples have been collected when both stream sediments and soil samples have proven impossible. The available data package contains 49 samples. Values below detection limit, is given as negative values.

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 MARTA database contains shallow seismic and acoustic data, information and geological samples. MATRA shows the distribution of marine sand and gravel resources and gives access to reports on raw material surveys. MARTA shows the distribution of marine sand and gravel resources and gives access to reports on raw material surveys. Data has primarily been acquired by GEUS and our partners., MARTA is the official Danish marine raw material database for data reported in accordance with the Danish Raw Material Act. MARTA is used by the raw materials industry and authorities and as a planning tool in connection with raw material extraction and marine construction projects including beach nourishment. The database is updated on an ongoing basis.

Basic information about the location of on- and offshore drillholes from Greenland for scientific research, mineral and oil and gas exploration. If available, a link to a report or summary sheet is specified that is the original source of information. The data is from 1948 through to 2019 and subject to change as new information becomes available from scientific reports, press releases and company documents.
