GeographyThe mine is located approximately {{convert|24|km|mi|abbr=on}} northeast of Ukkusissat in the Akuliarusikassak massif on the mainland of Greenland, on the southern shore of the Qaumarujuk Fjord, a tributary fjord of Perlerfiup Kangerlua, an inner branch of the Uummannaq Fjord.[5] HistoryThe first excavations in Maamorilik took place from 1938, possibly earlier, with operations continuing until 1945,[6] and again from 1973 to 25 July 1990[7] when the mine was closed. During seventeen years of operation, the mine yield of zinc ore amounted to 12 mln tonnes.[3] ReactivationIn 2008[7] the government of Greenland decided to reinvigorate mining activities in Maamorilik, aiming to provide an economic lifeline to the communities of the Uummannaq region,[8] keeping the relatively new Qaarsut Airport open.[9] Proceeds from mineral resources exploitation will provide Greenland with a counterbalance to the lump-sum subsidies from Denmark. The operations are carried out by Angel Mining plc, a UK-registered company.[3] As of April 2010, work continues on widening of the mine entrance to the required {{convert|300|m|ft|abbr=on}}.[4] The mine is due to reopen in 2013,[10] with zinc and iron ore reserves expected to last for 50 years.[11] Prospective employment is estimated at 110 people.[12] TransportUkkusissat Heliport is the closest aerodrome to the mining site, approximately {{convert|24|km|mi|abbr=on}} to the southwest. As in the 1970s,[13] supplies for the mine reconstruction are carried out via Air Greenland charter flights, now operated with the Bell 212 helicopter stationed in Uummannaq Heliport, {{convert|42|km|mi|abbr=on}} away.[14]Heavy transport including mining products was and will be transported by ship. A port exists at the fjord. An aerial tramway was used to connect to the mine at 750 m above the fjord. {{coord|71|07|35|N|51|16|40|W|display=title}}References1. ^Bureau of Minerals and Petroleum {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100727225715/http://www.bmp.gl/minerals/mining_history.html |date=2010-07-27 }} 2. ^{{cite web|url=http://uk.nanoq.gl/Emner/About/Resources_and_industry.aspx |publisher=Government of Greenland |title=Resources and Industry |accessdate=17 May 2010 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20120223085319/http://uk.nanoq.gl/Emner/About/Resources_and_industry.aspx |archivedate=23 February 2012 |df= }} 3. ^1 2 Angel Mining plc 4. ^1 {{cite news |url=http://www.knr.gl/index.php?id=183&tx_ttnews%5Btt_news%5D=55598&cHash=fde878b4e3 |title=Maarmorilik udvides |work=Kalaallit Nunaata Radioa |language=Danish |date=27 April 2010 |accessdate=17 May 2010}} 5. ^{{cite map|publisher=Tage Schjøtt, Denmark|title=Nuussuaq|edition=1992}} 6. ^GF Greenland 1991, pg 140 by Eric Wowern 7. ^1 Greenland Employers Association 8. ^{{cite web |url=http://sermitsiaq.gl/english/newsletter/weeklynewsletter/articles/article57900.ece |title=Future of lead mine uncertain |publisher=Sermitsiaq |accessdate=17 May 2010}} 9. ^{{cite news |url=http://sermitsiaq.gl/politik/article18567.ece |title=Lufthavne bliver ikke lukket |work=Sermitsiaq |date=17 October 2007 |language=Danish |accessdate=17 May 2010}} 10. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.angelmining.com/operational-update3 |title=Significant Progress at Black Angel Zinc/Lead Mine |publisher=Angel Mining plc |accessdate=25 October 2012}} 11. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.knr.gl/index.php?id=4532&tx_ttnews%5Btt_news%5D=55642&tx_ttnews%5BbackPid%5D=6779&cHash=5e98642c37 |title=Maarmorilik har zink og jern til 50 år |work=Kalaallit Nunaata Radioa |language=Danish |date=27 April 2010 |accessdate=17 May 2010}} 12. ^{{cite news |url=http://sermitsiaq.gl/erhverv/article27313.ece |title=Maarmorilik genåbnes i år |work=Sermitsiaq |date=11 January 2008 |language=Danish |accessdate=17 May 2010}} 13. ^{{cite web |url=http://50.airgreenland.dk/70'erne/ |title=Grønlandsfly 1970-79 |language=Danish |publisher=Air Greenland |accessdate=17 May 2010}} 14. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.angelmining.com/assets/files/BAM-News-3.pdf |publisher=Angelmining plc |title=Black Angel News, the newsletter about the Black Angel Project in Greenland |accessdate=19 May 2010}} External links
