| This graphite occurence was found based on the 2013 aitborne geophysical measurement done by NGU. At this locality there is a severral km long geophysical anomaly in an area with very little exposure. Graphite mineralisations is found in som small outcrops along a forest road. the o graphite ore is coarse grained and flaky. Two analysis vary in grade from 9% to aabout 3 % graphitic carbon. |

| Abstract: | |
| NGU conducted an ariborne geophysical survey in Langøya area in July - August 2013 as part of the MINN-project. This report describes and documents the acquisition, processing and visualization of recorded datasets. The geophysical survey results reported herein are 5650 line km, covering an area of 1050 km2 |
