Mineraliseringen ligger 540m.o.h. NV for Kamvatnet. Det er 3m mektig finkornet kvartsbåndet magnetitt-mineralisering (prøve 01 og 02) i monzonittisk granulittgneis. Vekselbånding i mm- til cm-skala mellom magnetitt-bånd og kvarts(-feltspat)-bånd. Mineraliseringen kan følges over minst 150 m lengde. I den NØ-lige delen er foliasjonen 230/30, mens det i SV dreier til V-lig, steilt strøk.
