Supracrustal rocks in the Ammassalik region, South-East Greenland
Rapport Grønlands Geologiske Undersøgelse, 1989 Large belts of supracrustal rocks are abundant in the Ammassalik region of S.E. Greenland, and are referred to collectively as the Siportoq supracrustal association. They comprise overwhelmingly metasediments, mainly of quartz-rich or semipelitic composition, with variable proportions of quartz, kyanite, sillimanite, garnet and biotite.
