Titaniferous iron ore deposit. Swedish map sheet 27H.

Note: Not to be confused with Ruoutevare near Jokkmok (a pegmatite locality; http://www.mindat.org/loc-10482.html).

Note on the mineral list: According to the revised nomenclature of högbomite, nigerite, and taaffeite (Armbruster ‎2002), the "högbomite" described by Gavelin (1916) should be named Magnesiohögbomite-2N2S.
