Skarvbergbukten, Alta, Troms og Finnmark, Norge
A nepheline syenite pegmatite dyke quarried for black mica by the Danish Mr. Schnor around 1916.
Located on the northern slope of Mt. Skarvberg to the north of Skarvevann. Known for producing albite crystals (often showing schillerization) that was found in large druses (Hoel & Schetelig 1916).
The locality named is erronously spelled as Skarregergbukta in Robinson et al. (1992).
Refered to by Hoel & Schetelig (1916) as "Pegmatitic dyke at Skarvebergbugten"
