Skjerpet ligger nå inne i et hytteområde og trolig under en vei som fører inn til ei hytte som ble bygd i 1988. Vest for veien er en 5 m høy og 7 m lang skjæring hvor bergartene kan studeres, og øst for veien er en kraftig bevokst tipp med sulfidmineraliserte blokker. Nederst i skjæringen finnes en 20-30 cm tykk mineralisert sone som består av disseminasjon av magnetkis og mindre mengder magnetitt i kvarts-amfibol rik grunnmasse. Den overlagres av en amfibolitt som dels er granatrik, med strøk 32°/20°. Over denne følger i veksling kvarts-glimmerskifer og amfibolitt som er sterkt isoklinalt foldet. Stedvis finnes noe rust. På grunn av kraftig overdekke er det ikke mulig å følge den mineraliserte sona videre langs strøket Blokker med semi-massiv magnetkis med kvarts-amfibol rik grunnmasse finnes i tippen (prøve .01) og antaes å representere mineraliseringen i det angitte skjepet. Lokalisering sjekket og justert 11.09.2008.

Caledonian sulphide deposits and minor iron-formations from the southern Trondheim region, Norway.

Abstract:
Within the southern and central parts of the Trondheim region of the Norwegian Caledonides a great number of small, stratabound cupriferous pyrite deposits are confined to mafic metavolcanics of the Gula, Støren and Fundsjø Groups of the Lower Palaeozoic succession. The deposits occuring within, or in close contact with the metavolcanics are characterized by their association with minor manganiferous oxide/silicate iron-formations - better known as "vasskis" ore type - within the metamorphic low-grade areas. The iron-fprmations of the metamorphic higher grade terrains on the other hand, which are extensively developed within the Gula Group, are mostly of a pyrrhotitic sulphide/silicate type and sulphurization processes are thought to have played an important role during the metamorphism. The pyrite deposits occurring adjacent to the metavolcanics bear no relationship to the iron-formations. They are embedded in pelitic, often carbonaceous assemblages (Gula Group) or within tuffitic members of the volcanogene Støren Group, and they are thought to represent re-sedimented (reworked) deposits. The pyrite deposits display varying degree of metamorphic reconstitution and a tectonic control has apparently determined their disc- or ruler-shaped morphology.
