Liten røsk (sprengning) i skrent ved skoggrensa rett øst for Hessjøen og under fjellknausen Kneppan. Røsken er et ca. 1 m dypt og 1m bredt innhugg i skrenten. Mineraliseringen består av svak pyritt-impregnasjon (ca. 5 % sulfider) i mm-laminert kvarts-klorittskifer. Pyrittkornene er <= 1 mm store og opptrer assosiert med kvarts, dels anriket i mm-tykke bånd. Sidebergarten er en finkornet metadiabas/-gabbro.
