East Greenland Caledonides: stratigraphy, structure and geochronology: Lower Palaeozoic stratigraphy of the East Greenland Caledonides [PDF]

open access: yesGeological Survey of Denmark and Greenland Bulletin, 2004
The Lower Palaeozoic stratigraphy of the East Greenland Caledonides, from the fjord region of North-East Greenland northwards to Kronprins Christian Land, is reviewed and a number of new lithostratigraphical units are proposed. The Slottet Formation (new)

First evidence of Renlandian (c. 950–940 Ma) orogeny in mainland Scotland:Implications for the status of the Moine Supergroup and circum-North Atlantic correlations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Central problems in the interpretation of the Neoproterozoic geology of the North Atlantic region arise from uncertainties in the ages of, and tectonic drivers for, Tonian orogenic events recorded in eastern Laurentia and northern Baltica.

East Greenland Caledonides: stratigraphy, structure and geochronology: The Eleonore Sø and Målebjerg foreland windows, East Greenland Caledonides, and the demise of the ‘stockwerke’ concept [PDF]

open access: yesGeological Survey of Denmark and Greenland Bulletin, 2004
Recognition of the Eleonore Sø and Målebjerg foreland windows during the 1997–1998 regional mapping expeditions to the East Greenland Caledonides provided critical evidence for largescale, westward-directed thrusting in the Kong Oscar Fjord region (72 ...

East Greenland Caledonides: stratigraphy, structure and geochronology: Palaeoproterozoic age of a basement gneiss complex in the Charcot Land tectonic window, East Greenland Caledonides [PDF]

open access: yesGeological Survey of Denmark and Greenland Bulletin, 2004
The Charcot Land tectonic window exposes crystalline basement gneisses, which form part of the foreland of the East Greenland Caledonides. These gneisses were previously believed to beArchaean in age, on the basis of imprecise K-Ar analyses carried out ...

Kinematics of syn-eclogite deformation in the Bergen Arcs, Norway, implications for exhumation mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The northwestern part of Holsnøy island, in the Bergen Arcs, Norway, consists of a granulite-facies protolith partially transformed at depth in eclogite (700 °C, > 19 kbars) and amphibolite (650 °C, 8-10 kbars) facies during the Caledonian orogenesis ...

Evolution of the Source Mineralogy and Lithospheric Controls on Magmatism During the Northeast Atlantic Continental Breakup

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The mid‐Norwegian Margin, part of the North Atlantic Igneous Province (NAIP), is a well‐studied volcanic rifted margin formed during the breakup between Greenland and Eurasia ∼56 Ma, with the largest accumulation of magmatic material hosted by the Vøring Margin section.

East Greenland Caledonides: stratigraphy, structure and geochronology: The Caledonian thin-skinned thrust belt of Kronprins Christian Land, eastern North Greenland [PDF]

open access: yesGeological Survey of Denmark and Greenland Bulletin, 2004
Kronprins Christian Land in the extreme north of the East Greenland Caledonides, exposes a thin-skinned thrust belt up to 50 km wide developed in Ordovician–Silurian platform limestones and dolostones of the Iapetus passive margin.
