Karenhaugen PGM-forekomst, Porsanger, Troms og Finnmark, Norge
Platinum group metals prospect in the northern Karasjok greenstone belt. Exploration work was done in 1939 by the Porsanger Malmfelter company, and by the NGU in 1979, 1988-89, 1989-90 and 1992.
The LiDAR map clearly shows the presence of a few small quarries. The Mindat coordinates are NGU's main coordinates, but in addition the NGU registered:
Main pit : 70.0334760,25.2188050
Locality 2 : 70.0331750,25.2218760
The reserves are estimated to be 1 Mt of ore.
