    Abstract

    This report presents data from the Geological Survey of Greenland's geochemical mapping programme based on drainage samples together with preliminary analyses of surface samples (soil and rock) collected at mineralised localities. The aim is to draw attention to the gold potential of supracrustal sequences in the area between Arfersiorfik and Qarajaq Fjord.

    The data are compiled from sampling in 1986 (69°N to 70°30'N, Steenfelt 1987, 1988), together with previously unpublished results from additional sampling in 1988 (Nuussuaq), 1989 (68°30'N to 69°N) and 1991 (68°N to Qasigiannguit).

    Results of gold in stream sediment surveys in other parts of Greenland are given in GGU Open File series 90/2, 90/5, 91/5, 91/8, and 91/9 (cf. inside of back cover).
