Abstract
THE similarity, pointed out by P. H. Lundegårdh in a recent communication1, between the amounts of the above trace elements in the normal series of igneous rocks from Eastern Upland, Sweden, and those in the corresponding members of the suite of rocks which we have analysed from the Skaergaard Intrusion, East Greenland2, is of considerable interest in view of the differences between the two series of rocks. In describing our results, we offered tentative explanations of the observed variations in the trace constituents, based largely on V. M. Goldschmidt's earlier work, and we shall look forward to Lundegårdh's further treatment of the problem in view of his new data from Sweden.
