"Anomalously U-rich granites of the so-called Revsund type, associated with W- and Sn-enrichments, occur in the Gunnarn area close to Storuman in northern Sweden. At Rostberget, a swarm of thin undeformed wolframite-bearing greisen veins are situated in the interior of the Joran granite intrusion." (Billström & Öhlander, 1989).
