Forekomsten ligger på toppen av en ås vest for bomveien mellom Sauherad og Roem. En sti kan følges opp til ei hytte, tidligere seter som ligger like ved. Et lite, gjengrodd skjerp med vegger 2x3 m finnes. Middelskornet amfibolitt/metagabbro dominerer i øst- og sørveggen. Magnetkis+kobberkismineralisering finnes i stuffer av kvarts på tippen. Forekomsten er uten økonomisk interesse.
