Description
Adkomst: Fra Gunnessætra er det ca. 3.5 km å gå langs sti (en del av veien) i lia på vestsiden av Levra. Skjerpeaktivitet har foregått på en flat forhøyning like nord for Levra. Her er det 5 små skjerp (tilsammen 5 m3 tipp) over en N-S-strekning (tvers av strøket?) på 35 m. Strøk/fall er ikke målbart, men det kan synes å være omlag øst-vest. I alle skjerp er det finkornig, mørk jaspis/chert med magnetitt-disseminasjon (prøve 01), og stedvis noe svovelkis (opptil 2-3 mm subhedrale korn)-disseminasjon. Innen magnetitt-cherten er det 2-3, ca. 1 m mektige, lag av rusten, lysere kvartsitt med finfordelt magnetkis-svovelkis-disseminasjon (prøve 02). Det opptrer også noen hvitkvartsitthorisonter uten mineralisering. En blotning inne i magnetitt-cherten viser grønnskifer. Det er blottet grønnstein nord og sør for mineraliseringen. Det kan også nevnes at en fattig, lignende mineralisering opptrer ca. 7 km mot nord, 2-300 m NØ for Ramseslykksætra. Her foretok Folldal Verk A/S geofysiske målinger i stikningsnett vinteren 1985, og det ble påvist flere cherthorisonter med jaspis, hematitt og magnetitt, og horisonter i mørk skifer med magnetitt-hematitt-disseminasjon (Bakke 1985).

Caledonian sulphide deposits and minor iron-formations from the southern Trondheim region, Norway.

Abstract:
Within the southern and central parts of the Trondheim region of the Norwegian Caledonides a great number of small, stratabound cupriferous pyrite deposits are confined to mafic metavolcanics of the Gula, Støren and Fundsjø Groups of the Lower Palaeozoic succession. The deposits occuring within, or in close contact with the metavolcanics are characterized by their association with minor manganiferous oxide/silicate iron-formations - better known as "vasskis" ore type - within the metamorphic low-grade areas. The iron-fprmations of the metamorphic higher grade terrains on the other hand, which are extensively developed within the Gula Group, are mostly of a pyrrhotitic sulphide/silicate type and sulphurization processes are thought to have played an important role during the metamorphism. The pyrite deposits occurring adjacent to the metavolcanics bear no relationship to the iron-formations. They are embedded in pelitic, often carbonaceous assemblages (Gula Group) or within tuffitic members of the volcanogene Støren Group, and they are thought to represent re-sedimented (reworked) deposits. The pyrite deposits display varying degree of metamorphic reconstitution and a tectonic control has apparently determined their disc- or ruler-shaped morphology.
