The Samba database contains information about geophysical investigations made in the Danish sector, acquired according to the Danish Act on the Use of the Subsoil. The data is acquired in relation to investigation for oil/gas, geothermal energy, the storage of gas or salt. That is: Seismic (2D & 3D) acquisitions, CSEM as well as other magnetic and gravity acquisitions shipborne as well as airborne. The dataset also contains geophysical measurement performed in the deep wells and meta data about the seismic surveys. The data has been submitted by the licensees. The database is updated on an ongoing basis.

The National well database (Jupiter) among other things contains water level measurements from Danish wells. The database contains water level measurements from the municipalities, the groundwater-monitoring program, the regions soil pollution investigations and from the establishment of new wells.

The MARTA database contains shallow seismic and acoustic data, information and geological samples. MATRA shows the distribution of marine sand and gravel resources and gives access to reports on raw material surveys. MARTA shows the distribution of marine sand and gravel resources and gives access to reports on raw material surveys. Data has primarily been acquired by GEUS and our partners., MARTA is the official Danish marine raw material database for data reported in accordance with the Danish Raw Material Act. MARTA is used by the raw materials industry and authorities and as a planning tool in connection with raw material extraction and marine construction projects including beach nourishment.

This dataset describes the intrusions and magmatic complexes of Greenland, forming a dedicated information layer within the GEUS GMOMDB2 database, displayed via the Greenland Mineral Occurrence Map (GMOM2). It includes 194 registered intrusions and complexes grouped into 23 magmatic provinces. The data are compiled from GEUS geological maps, published sources, and company reports. The Palaeogene intrusions and complexes of East Greenland (66–75°N) are related to the opening of the North Atlantic and the influence of the ancestral Icelandic mantle plume. The magmatic evolution includes flood basalts, dyke swarms, and intrusive activity from 61 to 13 Ma. Economic mineralisation is documented in several complexes, including the Skaergaard palladium deposit and the Malmbjerg porphyry molybdenum deposit, representing classic examples of rift- and post-rift-related mineral systems. The dataset provides harmonised, quality-controlled geological information to support exploration and research activities in Greenland.

The database contains information on deep drilling, carried out under a permit, cf. the Subsoil Act, as well as geophysics (especially seismic), licenses and reports. These are exploration, estimation, delineation and production drillings concerning oil/gas, geothermal energy, gas storage and salt, as well as scientific drillings. The dataset contains technical, administrative and geological information from the drillings and about geophysical measurements in the drillings.
-
The dataset contains basic information on the location of onshore and offshore drillholes in Greenland established for scientific research as well as mineral, oil and gas exploration. The dataset functions as a geographic reference layer and, where available, includes links to reports or summary sheets representing the original source of information. The dataset covers drillholes established between 1948 and 2019 and is subject to continuous updates as new information becomes available through scientific publications, press releases and company documentation.

This dataset contains an overview of all active exploitation licences in Greenland. The data are hosted and maintained by the Ministry of Mineral Resources (MMR), Government of Greenland. GEUS harvests the data through a WFS service provided by MMR and makes them available for visualisation through GEUS map services. The dataset represents the geographic extent of valid exploitation licences and functions as an administrative reference dataset.
-
The dataset contains polygons representing historical exploration and exploitation licences for mineral resources in Greenland. The data are based on geographic information provided via WFS by the Ministry of Mineral Resources in Greenland and are redistributed without modification of the original boundaries. The dataset provides an overview of former licence areas and their spatial extent.

This dataset comprises calibrated geochemical data from stream sediment and soil samples collected in North Greenland between 1978 and 1999, supplemented by extensive reanalyses in 2011. The dataset includes selected elements relevant for the evaluation of zinc mineralisation: CaO, K₂O, Ba, Cu, Sr and Zn. A total of 2,469 stream sediment samples and 204 soil samples were included. The analytical values represent the most reliable results following systematic quality control and calibration procedures designed to eliminate bias between analytical methods and analytical periods, as described in Thrane et al. (2011). All values below detection limit are coded as 0 in the dataset. The dataset supports regional assessment of geochemical patterns and mineral potential in North Greenland.

The seamless digital geological map is based on the digitisation and harmonisation of 21 geological map sheets at 1:100 000 scale, originally published by GGU/GEUS between 1966 and 2011. This edition updates and expands the 2019 version, which included 16 sheets, by integrating five additional 1:100 000 sheets and selected information from 1:500 000 scale maps in areas lacking detailed coverage. The map also incorporates a simplified geological interpretation of Bjørneøen and Storeø in Godthåbsfjorden based on detailed mapping by Claus Østergaard (2005). The dataset provides a consistent, seamless geological framework optimised for digital display at the 1:100 000 scale.
