Observations on the Upper Permian of Wegener Halvø, East Greenland

The Upper Permian sediments of East Greenland are exposed from Scoresby Land in the south to Clavering Ø in the north (fig. 30). The deposits on Wegener Halvø appear to be situated on the eastern side of the southern end of an elongated, approximately 80 km wide, sedimentary basin (Birkelund & Perch-Nielsen, 1976). Whether this basin extended northwards to include the Upper Permian deposits of North Greenland, has yet to be established.
