Malmer av variabel kvalitet er her foldet ned i små isolerte strukturer. Tynne malmer som ligger i sedimenter uten hornblendegneis er også funnet. Det er uklart hvilke malmtyper de kan korreleres med, men Ampervannmalmene er mest sannsynlige. På en liten topp på Rambergneset i Neverskrukkbukta er det to 20 m lange, grunne og gjengrodde røskegrøfter uten blotning av malmen. Blotning i nærheten av finkornet kvartsbåndet magnetittmineralisering (prøve 01). Bånding: 145°/50°. De spredte malmlinsene fortsetter NNV-over til Krokvatnet. Malmareal: 3000 - 5000 m2 i isolerte flisete malmer med gehalt 10 - 30 % Fe magn.
