Dette er et lite brudd ca. 15x5 meter like i vei kanten. Det har vært drevet på en grålig og urein kalkstein som er sterkt oppblandet med silikater. I dette området er det forholdsvis mye kalk, men den er av svært dårlig kvalitet. Det lå en kalkovn ved sjøen nede ved Skorpevågen. Kalken har et CaO og MgO innhold på 41.84 og 5.57% dette tilsvarer et kalkspatinnhold på 60.80 og en dolomittinnhold på 25.53%. Altså en ganske urein kalkspat.
