Summary: | Sample material from shallow core hole drilling (187 core samples) and outcrops (more than 200 surface samples) were collected on Disko, Nugssuaq and Svartenhuk Halvø during the summer of 1976 in a joint field programme between GGU and the Research Group for Organic Geochemistry of the Nuclear Research Establishment (KFA), Jülich, Federal Republic of Germany (Schiener & Leythaeuser, 1978a). The samples have been studied in the laboratory both by organic geochemistry and by reflected light microscopy. The main objectives were the appraisal of the folIowing parameters: (1) Richness in organic matter. (2) Maturation. (3) Type of organic matter. |
