Raskest adkomst fra E6 via sti til hytte ved UTM 588450 7739450, men Klokkarelva er relativt bred og dyp, og Ferdesmyra tildels farlig å krysse, men det er godt mulig. Mineraliseringen er blottet i uttørket elveleie, 10 m SV for elvedele, og ligger i blanding av relativt grovkornig amfibolitt med cm-mektige lyse bånd og m-mektige lag av lysegrå gneis, samt gjennomsettende og tilnærmet konkordante pegmatitter av opptil noen meters mektighet. Den finkornige kvartsbåndede magnetitt-mineraliseringen (prøve 01) er 0.5 m mektig, og 25 m mot SV (20 m over) er det nok en 0.5 m mektig malmhorisont. Mineraliseringen synes å ligge i et annet strukturelt nivå enn den nærliggende Galsaluobbal-mineraliseringen (FI0304) mot SØ.
