Geochemistry of Greenland rock samples (raw analysis results)
The dataset contains geochemical analytical results for rock samples from Greenland, collected through GEUS field and project activities and made available as an extract from GEUS’ information system GimmeX. Samples were collected for various purposes including geological mapping, geochemistry, ore geology and mineral exploration, and no systematic rock sampling was undertaken. Analytical data are organised by analytical type/method and accompanying tables document the analytical results. Sample location accuracy varies, in particular for samples collected before 1997, and older positions may have been adjusted between different map bases.

The data originate from GEUS collection and analysis of rock samples in Greenland as part of multiple activities and projects. Sample information and analytical results are stored in GEUS databases and are delivered as a digital extract from the GimmeX information system. Sampling was carried out without a systematic rock sampling design, and analytical tables are organised by analytical type/method. Location information and sample descriptions derive from field registrations; GPS has been used since 1997, while older locations were read or digitised from topographic maps and may have been adjusted between map bases using a mathematical transformation. Users should note that sample positions collected before 1997 may be less accurate, and if high positional accuracy is required the original sample location maps archived at GEUS should be consulted. The dataset provides raw analytical results and accuracy/precision may vary by laboratory and method; results below the detection limit may be coded in a specific way (e.g., as 0) in the analytical tables.
