Skjerpet ligger ca. 400 m rett sør for Litjfjellgruva og i underkant av 100 m vest for stien til Finnkoisjøen. Det består av en vannfylt synk med omriss omtrent 3x3 m. På nedsiden er det en tipp på ca. 200 kbm. Mineralisering består av en opptil 1 m mektig sone med slirer anriket i kobberkis og magnetkis i klorittisert karbonatholdig metasandstein. Det er også en god del kvartslinser som inneholder en del mineralisering. Mineraliseringen kiler ut 5-10 m på hver side av skjerpet. |
