Basement - cover relationships and metamorphic studies in the East Greenland Caledonides (72°–74°N)

Abstract

The reconnaissance work in the metamorphic complexes of northern East Greenland begun in 1975 (Friderichsen & Higgins, 1976) continued in 1976. Attention was concentrated on the relationships between Archaean basement gneiss complexes, middle Proterozoic medium- to high-grade metasediments, and the late Precambrian Eleonore Bay Group.
