Paleomagnetic measurements on 61 drill cores from eight sites of the Coast Parallel dikes of west Greenland (Fiskenaesset area) have yielded a pole position at 169°E, 54°N, α 95 = 5.9°. When these data are combined with those from the Nunarsuit-Tornarssuk area (Ketelaar 1963) the pole is 168°E, 56°N...
