Included in the St Julien Molin Molette mining claim, almost 27 mineralized veins are known around this hamlet! Despite their narrowness (~30 cm of width), several of these veins were mined for lead and silver by the Blumenstein family (german miners) during the 18th and the early 19th century. These deposits are now completely exhausted, but they stand out in the landscape by their bulky dumps!

In these veins, three main stages of mineralization are known:
- Phase 1: cracking of gneisses and very low deposits of quartz and purple/green fluorite (rarely)
- Phase 2: alternating deposits of quartz, barite and sulfides (chalcopyrite, sphalerite, galena...), interspersed with dissolutions and recrystallizations of quartz. This stage gave many vugs with big quartz crystals, sometimes smoked.
- Phase 3: deposits in vugs of yellow/blue cubic fluorite with some galena and white barite
