The South Greenland regional uranium exploration project

Abstract

The SYDURAN project completed the airborne gamma-spectrometer and geochemical sampling survey over some 14 000 km2 of south-west Greenland from the fjord Sermiligarssuk in the north-west to Kap Farvel in the south and up the east coast as far as the southern shore of Lindenows Fjord. This covered all the Ketilidian structural zones and a small area of Archaean as classified by Allaart (1976) (fig. 29). Geological field work and prospecting of a more detailed nature was carried out in five areas where previous work indicated possibie uranium mineralisation.
