Ore minerals in stream sediments from North Greenland

    Research output: Book/ReportReport (publicly available)

    Abstract

    Ore minerals in stream sediments have been used to determine distinct areas of interest for mineral exploration. Although the sample coverage is not homogeneous, the study indicates areas of interest for base metals along the lineament through Federick E. Hyde Fjord. High concentrations of pyrite with framboidal textures but without accompanying galena or sphalerite may be pathfinders for zinc deposits. Occurrences of pyrrotite is restricted to areas of highest metamorphic grade.
