A granite quarry, located in a belt of Caledonian granites stretching all the way to Velfjorden and Vevelstad. Towards Vevelstad the granite becomes increasingly more porphyric in structure. Some dimension stone has been taken out, and the rock has also been used for the production of crushed stone. The quality of the rock is considered to be poor.
