Skjerpet består av en ca. 5m lang stoll med nedenforliggende tipp. Stollen ser ut til å gå svakt på synk, og er nå vannfylt innerst. Ifølge lokalkjente ble stollen drevet av svensker på slutten av 1800-tallet. Mineraliseringen sitter i kalkspatmarmor. Den er massiv og grovt oppsprukket. Vanskelig å måle strøk og fall. Fine foldestrukturer i marmoren over stollinngangen. Marmoren er grå til mørkegrå, middelskornet med tendens til bånding. Rene kalkspatkrystaller forekommer. Mineraliseringen er generelt svak. Prøvetaking: 1 Meget fattig og ujevn disseminasjon av pyritt? i grå kalkspatmarmor. (Typepr. + ref) 2 Py + biotitt i svak bånding i lys kalkspatmarmor. Samme type bergart og malm som i Kalvåsen skjerpet. (Typepr. + ref)
