Description
| Geological map of the Upernavik region, North-West Greenland (1:100,000 scale), compiled from historical and recent geological mapping, photogrammetry, aerial and satellite imagery, and supporting geochronological and geochemical datasets. The map presents an updated interpretation of the Palaeoproterozoic Rinkian Orogen and the Prøven Igneous Complex. |
