Cu-Pb-Zn deposit. Main mineral is chalcopyrite.
The mineralisation is hosted in quartz boudins within a mylonitic zone.
Adits are located at the same altitude as the village, within a stripe comprising altitudes between 1280 and 1400 m. In 1949 21 adits were still known. In 1996 only one dangerous adit was accessible.
