A feldspar quarry from after Andersen (1931)'s time.

Formerly just called Vånne or Vånne feldspar quarry, it had to be renamed due to the presence of so far unregistered quarries in the same area.

The quarry is known for rather good pseudomorphs of calcioancylite-(Ce) (and other phases) after allanite-(Ce).

NOTE: Ronald Werner visited the quarry on 2 September 2021. The exposures were of low interest at the time.
