Gravity and magnetic susceptibility survey over the northern part of the supracrustal rocks in the Disko Bugt area, central West Greenland

Abstract

As part of the Disko Bugt project (Kalsbeek, 1989) a survey of gravity and magnetic susceptibility was carried out over parts of the supracrustal rocks and the Atå granite/tonalite (fig. 1). The objective of the survey was to acquire new geophysical data that, together with the existing regional aeromagnetic survey in the area (Thorning, 1988), can be used to study the deeper structures related to the granite and the supracrustal belts in the area.
