Located on Bergville Farm 490 is Late Proterozoic carbonatite veins and phonolite dikes in metasedimentary rorks (gneisses and schists) with stocks of nepheline syenite to 2km2. Veins are usually 0.5 to 5m in width and up to 25m in width by 5km in length.

Burbankite is the main REE host in the unaltered 'Main' intrusion (of calcite carbonatite).
