Tungsten skarns in the contact aureole of a Carboniferous granodiorite intrusion. Host rocks are Ordovician metamorphized shale/sandstone and shale/limestone formations, calcium-silicates cipolins, skarns and hornfels. Scheelite is the main tungsten ore (reserves estimated at 15,000 tonnes WO3).

Mined between 1971 and 1986.

Has been compared to the Costabonne Mines skarn.

A total of 930,000 tons of ore with an average grade of 1.5% WO3 were mined. This deposit is located along the edge and within the Salau massif, a Variscan granodiorite intrusion, primarily in scheelite lenses and mineralized breccia.
