Abstract

The coals of Greenland come from many stratigraphic levels ranging from Lower Carboniferous to Terti ary. Of the ice-free areas of Greenland only a small proportion can be considered as prospective. In order of the degree of exploration and economic importance in the past, these areas are:

(1) Central West Greenland (Disko, Nugssuaq, Hareøen).
(2) East Greenland (Jameson Land, Kap Hope, Wegener Halvø, Hudson Land, Wollaston Forland, Kuhn Ø).
(3) North-East Greenland (Hochstetter Forland, Holm Land, Kronprins Christian Land.
