Ground magnetic investigations of selected aeromagnetic anomalies in southern West Greenland

Abstract

Ground magnetic investigations were carried out during the summer of 1978 to elucidate some prominent aeromagnetic anomalies (Thorning, 1976, 1977). Four different areas were visited (Thorning, this report, fig. 23), additional reconnaissance work being carried out for Leif Thorning on the Taserssuaq granodiorite north of Godthåbsfjord (Thorning, this report). During the field work, total field magnetic profiles were obtained using a proton magnetometer (Geometrics G-816) and in situ susceptibilities were measured with an ABEM Kappameter KT-3.
