H. G.: Forekomsten ligger på nordsiden av Follavannet, like ved Brattingfoss. Forekomsten utgjør en mindre urein kalklinse i svært heterogen kvartsittisk bergart. Forekomsten er uten økonomisk og industriell interesse. I. L.: Smalt kalklag som ikke er mulig å utnytte økonomisk. Kan brukes lokalt? Et smalt drag som ikke er avmerket på 1:250 000 kartet. Konklusjon: Ikke prioritert å befare. En del materiale finnes.
