| Description |
| Bergheller under glimmerskifer, der enkelte gjenværende partier av både klorittskifer og lys, talkrik kleberstein opptrer helt i bunn. Anslagsvis er klebersteinssonen 2-5 meter tykk. Under befaringen i 2001 ble det ikke observert huggespor eller gryteemner, men det antas at sonen er et delvis gjenfylt, utdrevet klebersteinsbrudd. Bruddet er merket som vernet på økonomiske kartverk. |
| Historical significance |
| Bruddet er vernet, og antas å være førreformatorisk. |
| Location |
| Forekomsten ligger på vestsiden av Katlaberg i Os kommune, like nord for Vargavågen. Adkomst via traktorveg rundt 200 meter fra nærmeste hus. |
