Resumé

The Tertiary volcanic province of West Greenland is geographically divisible into four main areas, namely Svartenhuk Halvø, Ubekendt Ejland, Nugssuaq and Disko. Other smaller exposures of Tertiary igneous rocks include Schades Øer, Hareøen, Grønne Ejland and probably parts of Upernivik Ø and Qeqertarssuaq (figs 323, 324). The areal extent of the province including recently discovered offshore extensions, is roughly 55 000 km2 and has maximum onshore dimensions of 125 km in width by 370 km in north-south length (fig. 323).
