Extract

It is well known to mineralogists, that Giesecke, who in the years 1806—13 travelled in Greenland, brought home from Julianehaab district some new minerals, which he handed over to the Copenhagen Museums. In 1853-4 Dr. Rink supplied the museum of the Copenhagen University with a large collection of the same minerals, mostly in large and fine specimens, and the same collections hove lately received a most valuable and considerable addition, through the travels of Mr. K. J. V. Steanstrup of the Danish Geological Survey of Greenland. Some of these interesting mino.rals, occurring in the Syenite on both sides of the fjords Tunugdliarfik and Kangerdluarsuk, have already long been known, whereas others had elther been not found there before or at least not analysed or described.
