In old references and labels this area has also been refered to as Setesdalen (Setesdal), which is the valley along the river Otra. Evje & Hornes and Iveland municipalities are the 2 southernmost municipalities (of totalt 5) in this valley.
The pegmatites are enriched in REE and have originated at ca. 600°C (Müller et al., 2009).
