The activities of the Geological Survey of Greenland (Grønlands Geologiske Undersøgelse, GGU) in 1992 were strongly influenced by political initiatives to increase interest in the hydrocarbon and mineral resources of Greenland. GGU has supported the Mineral Resources Administration (MRA) with both an international promotion drive to present the investment potential of Greenland to the mining industry and with presentations in connection with a licensing round for hydrocarbon exploration and exploitation offshore West Greenland south of 66°N.
