Aenigmatite

Aenigmatite, also known as cossyrite after Cossyra, the ancient name of Pantelleria, is a sodium, iron, titanium inosilicate mineral.

See Ilimaussaq intrusive complex and Aenigmatite

Agpaitic rock

An agpaitic rock is a peralkaline igneous rock, typically nepheline syenite or phonolite. Ilimaussaq intrusive complex and agpaitic rock are igneous petrology stubs.

Arfvedsonite

Arfvedsonite or soda hornblende (partiellement obsolète) is a sodium amphibole mineral with composition:.

See Ilimaussaq intrusive complex and Arfvedsonite

Beryllium

Beryllium is a chemical element; it has symbol Be and atomic number 4.

See Ilimaussaq intrusive complex and Beryllium

Eudialyte

Eudialyte, whose name derives from the Greek phrase,, meaning "well decomposable", is a somewhat rare, nine-member-ring cyclosilicate mineral, which forms in alkaline igneous rocks, such as nepheline syenites.

Greenland

Greenland (Kalaallit Nunaat,; Grønland) is a North American island autonomous territory of the Kingdom of Denmark.

See Ilimaussaq intrusive complex and Greenland

Kvanefjeld

Kvanefjeld (or Kuannersuit), in Greenland, is the site of a mineral deposit, which is claimed to be the world's second-largest deposit of rare-earth oxides, and the sixth-largest deposit of uranium. Ilimaussaq intrusive complex and Kvanefjeld are geology of Greenland.

Layered intrusion

A layered intrusion is a large sill-like body of igneous rock which exhibits vertical layering or differences in composition and texture. Ilimaussaq intrusive complex and layered intrusion are layered intrusions.

See Ilimaussaq intrusive complex and Layered intrusion

Mesoproterozoic

The Mesoproterozoic Era is a geologic era that occurred from.

See Ilimaussaq intrusive complex and Mesoproterozoic

Nepheline syenite

Nepheline syenite is a holocrystalline plutonic rock that consists largely of nepheline and alkali feldspar.

See Ilimaussaq intrusive complex and Nepheline syenite

Niobium

Niobium is a chemical element; it has symbol Nb (formerly columbium, Cb) and atomic number 41.

See Ilimaussaq intrusive complex and Niobium

Rare-earth element

The rare-earth elements (REE), also called the rare-earth metals or rare earths or, in context, rare-earth oxides, and sometimes the lanthanides (although scandium and yttrium, which do not belong to this series, are usually included as rare earths), are a set of 17 nearly indistinguishable lustrous silvery-white soft heavy metals.

See Ilimaussaq intrusive complex and Rare-earth element

Sodalite

Sodalite is a tectosilicate mineral with the formula, with royal blue varieties widely used as an ornamental gemstone.

See Ilimaussaq intrusive complex and Sodalite

Tugtupite

Tugtupite is a beryllium aluminium tectosilicate.

See Ilimaussaq intrusive complex and Tugtupite

Type locality (geology)

Type locality, also called type area, is the locality where a particular rock type, stratigraphic unit or mineral species is first identified.

See Ilimaussaq intrusive complex and Type locality (geology)

Uranium

Uranium is a chemical element; it has symbol U and atomic number 92.

See Ilimaussaq intrusive complex and Uranium

Zirconium

Zirconium is a chemical element; it has symbol Zr and atomic number 40.
