| Vargfjord mt.malmskjerp ligger 2 m.o.h. ved Hamnesstranda.Malmen er tatt ut i en 10 m lang, 1 m bred og 2 m dyp malmlinse (sp.v. 3,4 ~70 tonn). Ved skjerpet er det en smal magnetisk anomali som er ca. 200 m lang. Denne ble gått opp med EM-15-staven i 1970, og man fikk utslag 1700 til 5000 gamma. Der er flere små linser som perler på en snor langs denne 200 m strøklengden. Samlet tonnasje er kun få 100-talls tonn. |
