Host rock relations at the Skaergaard western margin on Mellemø.
Gently folded Kangerlussuaq sediments (Cretaceous to Palaeocene) overlain
by Palaeocene to Eocene basalts. The steep hill at the left represents
the outer lithologies of the Skaergaard Marginal Border Series. The pile
of rocks on the outcrop is an ancient Eskimo meat depot. Photo by Jens
