Old, abandoned limestone quarry with 2 working areas.

Metamorphic rocks of the Rudawy Janowickie and Grzbiet Lasocki (German: Kolbenkamm)- mica schist group + the so-called gneisses of Mała Upa, limestones and calcareous-silicate rocks, quartzite shales, graphite quartzites, and feldspar amphibolites and Kowary ore-bearing formation. In many places of this series, limestones were extracted from the lenses among the metamorphic series until the mass mining of limestones in the Kaczawskie Mountains (Wojcieszow).
