Old feldspar quarry 7 km west of Vigeland. A granite pegmatite hosted in farsundite (a hornblende bearing quartz monzonite) quarried for feldspar.
Now abandoned.

Approximately 1950 tons of feldspar and at least 700 tons of quartz were produced in 1919-22, 1931-41 and around 1950.

Barth (1931) describes this locality, and mentions the presence of microcline crystals with a length of 2 m.

This locality is registered in the norwegian database over cultural heritage sites as Rømteland gruver with ID 236170.
