Glava kopparfält (Yttre Ruds koppargruvor), Glava, Arvika kommun, Värmlands län, Sverige

Discovered in 1870, basically no mining until World War I. From the beginning it was not known that the ore contained good levels of Au & Ag. The Au-Ag-Te minerals were first discovered by Scherbina (1941) and occur as inclusions in pure Cu-sulfides.

The ores occur as veins striking N-S (one Eastern, one Western part) with smaller and bigger pits. Located N of Glava Slate Quarry and SW of Glava Church; equivalent to localities no 2 & 3 in the map of Jongejan & Westerweld (1949).

NB: People living in the area have always used the name Yttre Rud for this locality, but since Glava is used in the literature, it is better to keep it like this.
