Finkornet kvartsbåndet magnetitt-mineralisering (prøve 01) har utgående i en liten blotning like NØ for vestre Båttejåkjavri. Den ca. 1 m mektige malmhorisonten har et komplekst foldingsmønster, og er også sannsynligvis forstyrret av en nærliggende pegmatitt. Sidebergart er båndet amfibolitt, som stryker i forskjellig retning i de få nærliggende blotninger.
