Mineralizations associated with the Blåfjell-Laksedal pegmatite northeast of Laksedalsvatnet. Bryns consist of two exploits (1 and 2) located 180 m apart in a north-south direction. The deposits consist partly of pure ilmenite, partly of ilmenite-norite, and are confined in a 0.5-1.5 m thick dyke which may be followed for some tens of meters at both exploits.
