Description
Flere gamle skiferbrudd finnes i forekomsten. Det antas at drift har foregått siden midten av 1800-tallet. I dag er ingen av bruddene i drift. Skiferen i forekomsten er vesentlig av Pillarguritype Ottaskifer, svart med markerte nåler av hornblende. I partier er skiferen relativt sterkt foldet (særlig i vestlige del). I slike partier blir vrakandelen høy, og skiferoverflaten får en markant, ruglete karakter. Stedvis er i tillegg sprekketettheten høy. Selv om ikke de gamle bruddene direkte inviterer til gjennopptakelse av drift, kan området inneholde interessante reserver.
Location
Forekomsten ligger ved Pillarguritoppen like syd for Otta sentrum. Tilgjengelig fra helårs grusveg.
