Li 3 feltspatgruve (Litunet), Li, Evje og Hornnes, Agder, Norge
Quarry at the Øvre Li farm, close to the farm house. 1000 tons of feldspar were mined from this a long time ago abandoned quarry.
Stensrud (2009) places this quarry E of the farmhouse at his map (p. 78), but this is wrong.
An aerial picture of 1972 shows the quarry beyond a shadow of a doubt to be W of the farmhouse.
