Abstract
A contribution to the geological investigations in the region of Ivigtut, SW Greenland
Highlights
During the Ketilidian period, a mountain chain was formed, in which one may distinguish a migmatized infrastructure and a suprastructure composed of an ectinite series
U., the study of the territory situated to the NW of Ivigtut, between the fjords of Tigssalup ilua and Sermiligarssuk, was undertaken
WEGMANN (1938), the geological history of this region has been roughly divided into an orogenic phase, during which the Ketilidian chain was born, and a phase of tension with block-tectonics and emplacement of dykes (Gardar period)
