Several small prospects and veins in the area. The small creek Sandåen follow the fault between precambrian basement, consisting of granitic-gneiss and granitic-pegmatites and the Oslo-graben, consisting of cambrian-silurian sediments. This fault is going in NW-SE direction, with basement as foot-wall and Oslo-graben as hanging-wall. The quartz-fluorite veins are all related to the fault.
