Notes on the Precambrian to Lower Cambrian stratigraphy of the south-eastern part of Heilprin Land, Independence Fjord, North Greenland

Abstract

As a member of the 7th Danish Peary Land Expedition in the summer of 1970 led by Count Eigil Knuth, the author had the opportunity to study a section through the Precambrian, Eocambrian and Lower Cambrian strata along the south-eastern shore of Heilprin Land (fig. 2). The main purpose was to examine the Precambrian Midsommersø dolerites (see below), and also to map the sedimentary formations of the area. This report describes the results of the mapping.
