    Resumé

    Geochemical mapping based on fine fraction of stream sediments and stream waters has been carried out along the east coast of South Greenland. 145 samples were collected in the ice free strips of land in the fjord section between 60°30' to 62°30'N, corresponding to an average sampling density of 1 sample per 70 km2 (including ice covered areas between the fjords). The spatial element distributions outline lithogeochemical and metallogenic provinces correlatable with provinces recognised in an earlier geochemical survey of western South Greenland. Stream sediment anomalies for Au, Cu, Zn, U and W cluster around Danell and Lindenow Fjords, and detailed exploration is recommended in this region.
