A pyrite-pyrrhotite mine in the Doverstorp ore field, (fahlband-type pyrite-pyrrhotite deposit).
Sulphide mining started 1916 and closed 1919. Produced 60,000 tons of ore mainly for sulfuric acid and sulfite.

Disseminated and banded pyrite/pyrrhotite deposit (Ammeberg-Tunaberg type, South zone of Bergslagen district) in volcanosedimentary formations and metarhyolites/metadacites (Amphibole metamorphic facies of Finoswedish orogenesis/1800 My).
