| Summary: | The series of government-funded geophysical surveys in Greenland was continued during the spring and summer of 2001 with a regional aeromagnetic survey north of Uummannaq, project Aeromag 2001 (Fig. 1). The survey added about 70 000 line kilometres of high-quality mag-netic measurements to the existing database of modern airborne geophysical data from Greenland. This database includes both regional high-resolution aeromagnetic surveys and detailed surveys with combined electro-magnetic and magnetic airborne measurements. High-quality magnetic data are now available for all the ice-free area of West and South Greenland from the southern tip of Greenland to Upernavik Kujalleq/Søndre Upernavik (Fig. 1). The total surveyed area with high-resolution magnetic data is 250 000 km2 and corre-sponds to a total of 515 000 line kilometres. Detailed surveys with combined electromagnetic and magnetic measurements were carried out in six separate surveys in selected areas of high mineral potential during pro-ject AEM Greenland 1994–1998, a total of 75 000 line kilometres.
