| Located on Eigerøy at Knarraviga. Exploitation has taklken place in two major shafts and a couple of minor digs. The shafts are now filled with water and refuse. Site is heavily overgrown and relations are difficult to observe. Seems to consist mainly of disseminated sulfides hosted partly by pyroxenites or norites, partly by anorthosite. |
