Mineral occurrence regions in Greenland
The dataset contains a summary of geological information for known mineral occurrence regions in Greenland. The information includes the geographic location, size, mineral commodities, mineralisation type, exploration history and a geological description of each occurrence or deposit.
The data have been collected and compiled from field investigations conducted by geological surveys, academic researchers and mineral exploration companies. The dataset represents a regional synthesis of mineral occurrence information and provides an overview of the spatial distribution and geological context of known mineral resources in Greenland.

- Beskrivelse
-
The dataset was compiled from multiple sources, including field investigations carried out by geological surveys, academic research projects and mineral exploration companies. Information on mineral occurrences was collected from published reports, maps and exploration records and subsequently harmonised and generalised to produce a regional dataset.
The compilation reflects the level of geological knowledge available at the time of publication and does not represent a complete inventory of all mineral occurrences in Greenland. The level of detail and documentation may vary between individual occurrence regions depending on data availability.
