Lomtjønna: Består av 2 vannfylte skjerp 15m fra hverandre. NV-vegg i skjerpene er stort sett sammenfallende med forkastning, indikert ved glimmerrikt lag. NV for denne finnes granatglimmerskifer. SV for denne opptrer grafittskifer. Et tynt lag (ca. 30cm) chert finnes in situ. Malmprøver: 01: Svovelkis og magnetkis i serisittskifer. 02: Chert med svovelkis. 03: Svovelkis og magnetkis i serisittskifer +/- grafitt.

Ørnåsen: SV-NØ gående skjerp 7 x 2m ca. 2m dypt med synk/stoll som ser ut til å ha vært drevet på skrå. I skjerpet er blottet ca. 2.5m chert med svovelkis. I hengen NØ opptrer granatglimmerskifer og i ligg serisittskifer. Et enkelt lag (ca 15cm) grafittskifer finnes i cherten. I tippen finnes chert med svovelkis, og serisittskifer med svovelkis og magnetkis. Strøk/fall: 105/14 N. Tippvolum ca. 20m3.
