Tungsten prospect.
From Gunnarn drive in the direction of the airfield and before that turn right to Grundfors and right again after about 1 km. Follow this dirt road for another 4 km and then left up to a sharp bend to the left and park there. The path to the prospect starts in the bend and is quite overgrown. After about 200 m you reach the lower end of the prospect. This mineralization was discovered in 1979 and the minerals occur in quartz veins running through the former cleaned rock.

Geochronology
Mineralization age: Neoproterozoic : 723 Ma to 709 MaImportant note: This table is based only on rock and mineral ages recorded on mindat.org for this locality and is not necessarily a complete representation of the geochronology, but does give an indication of possible mineralization events relevant to this locality. As more age information is added this table may expand in the future. A break in the table simply indicates a lack of data entered here, not necessarily a break in the geologic sequence. Grey background entries are from different, related, localities.
