The volcanic rocks of north-west Nugssuaq are highly faulted. In order to throw some light on the details of their structure the author undertook detailed mapping in various parts of Nugssuaq in 1971 and 1972; Marrait kitdlît was one of the areas investigated. Marrait kitdlît is situated on the south-west side of the Nugssuaq peninsula 6 km south-east of the mouth of the Itivdle valley.
