Abstract:
Forekomsten ligger innen en mektig marmorsone i den undre del av Håfjells- mulden. Ved Tjelneset er marmorens bredde vel 1000 m. Marmoren har innleiret en del glimmerskiferbånd, opptil 10 m brede. Strøket er S-SSV, fallet stort sett Ø, 50-60 grader. Selve marmoren er utpreget båndet, hvit og grå. Det er utført kjemisk analyse på CaO, MgO og CO2. Forekomsten har en gunstig beliggenhet like ved fjorden, men den utpregete båndete veksling av kalkspatmarmor og dolomittmarmor gjør forekomsten uegnet til utnyttelse.
