We report major, trace elements and Pb, Hf, Nd and Sr isotopes in 61-54 Ma old basalts from Svartenhuk Halve Peninsula (Greenland). This area corresponds to the northernmost exposure of the West Greenland volcanic province, of which the emplacement marks the continental thinning and breakup process...
