Information(s) in free text format
Description
Forekomsten er en fortsettelse av bruddene Vetlehagen og Møn og har vært drevet på murestein. Driften måtte stanse grunnet mye vann i bruddet. I tillegg ligger forekomsten nokså nær bebyd område, så det er små sjanser for komme i gang igjen her.
Location
Bruddet ligger ca. 6 km øst for Vossavangen.
