Abstract
In general 1993 was a very encouraging year for GGU. The most exciting geological developments were the find of a major zinc deposit in North Greenland by the Canadian company Platinova A/S and the further investigations of the live oil showing discovered in 1992 on Nuussuaq in West Greenland. Both discoveries have contributed to increased interest in exploration for mineral resources by international oil and mining companies in Greenland.

Summary
The most exciting geological developments were the find of a major zinc deposit in North Greenland by the Canadian company Platinova NS and the further investigations of the live oil showing discovered in 1992 on Nuussuaq in West Greenland Both discoveries have contributed to increased interest in exploration for mineral resources by international oil and mining companies in Greenland. GGU has again participated in promotion activities aimed at increasing international awareness of the mineral resource potential of Greenland. GGU carries out all geological tasks under the field of jurisdiction of the Mineral Resources Administration for Greenland. This includes evaluation of hydrocarbon and mineral potential, inspection visits and calculation of concession areas, and participation in discussions ofnew strategies and initiatives. The permanent staff of 83 based in Copenhagen has been supplemented during the year by an additional 13 associated with externally financed projects
