Holandsfjordbotn(Smålifjellet og Bjørnskardet) titanitt-magnetitt-mineralisering: Mt.-mineralisering opptrer som opptil 2m tykke linser og lag i en 2-4m tykk amfibolitt sammen med en 2m tykk kalk. Mineraliserte prøver er rusten amfibolitt. Malmlinsene er ikke kartlagt i detalj. 1974-82 er det gjort regionalgeologisk kartlegging i Holandsfjordområdet av flere.
