Indication of migrated hydrocarbons in Tertiary volcanic rocks from western Nûgssuaq, central West Greenland

Abstract

During the field season of 1985 the author briefly visited Marrait kitdlit at the southern part of the entrance to the Itivdle valley on Nugssuaq (fig. 1). This paper briefly describes the occurrence of possibly migrated organic material in a vein in Tertiary basalt and presents it in a regional context.
