«Det er en grovkornig hvit marmor, som til dels indeholder grafitskjæl. Det i saltsyre uopløste er kun ubetydelig og bestaar av grafit og spor av kvarts. Denne marmor optræder i betydelige masser og gjennemsættes av spredte granitganger.» J. Rekstad, 1914 «III. Kalksten fra Nordland»

Abstract:
Some analyses of limestones from Northern Norway are given. They show that the percentage of carbonate of Magnesium (MgCO3) is small in several of these lime- stones. They may therefore be used in the industries of carbide and cellulose. The limestones of Northern Norway consist of varieties from almost pure carbo- nate of Calcium (CaCO3) to dolomite (CaCO3MgCO3). It was formerly a common belief that all the limestones of this region were too rich in carbonate of Magnesium for such uses, but that is not the case.
