The Early Proterozoic Nagssugtoqidian mobile belt is geologically poorly known despite its location in the more populated part of West Greenland (Fig. 1). A detailed geological map (1:100 000; Olesen, 1984) is available for the western part of the Nordre Strømfjord area, but the remaining areas have only been mapped at 1:500 000 scale with geological reconnaissance along the coast and aerial photograph interpretation of inland areas (Map sheet 3: Søndre Strømfjord - Nugssuaq; Escher, 1971).
