Greenland's Mineral Resources Administration (MRA) plans a series of licensing rounds off western Greenland. Meanwhile, the MRA has declared the Jameson Land basin of east central Greenland as open acreage. Greenland Geological Survey (GGU), Copenhagen, has prepared a report on the geographical conditions, logistics, exploration history, and geological development of Jameson Land. The article emphasizes source and reservoir rocks, conceptual play types with six seismic examples, and thermal history with basin modeling. It also includes two interpreted regional seismic lines, a geological and an aeromagnetic map, depth structure, and isopach maps of selected formations.
