Feldspar quarry 550 m W of the famous Vånne 1 locality.
NOTE Ronald Werner 2021:
Locality visited 2 september 2021. Landowner Veraas kindly guided me to this quarry. There are two inclined shafts, each a couple of meters in length. Operative after 1931, since not mentioned by Andersen (1931). There was no time to study the quality of the exposures.
