A Si-rich phlogopite lamproite dike that outcrops in a road cutting at Blåmannvika and at Melketinden, about 4-5 km further southwest. The dike is 0.3–0.4 m thick, of a transitional type, and has an unusual Ti-Ba-P accessory mineralization (Zozulya et al. 2010).

The rock consists of phenocrysts of light brown Mg-rich fluorotetraferriphlogopite, phlogopite, yangzhumingite and apatite in a fine-grained matrix dominated by K-feldspar, quartz and alkali amphiboles. 3 compositional groups of amphiboles, that include CNa-, Fe2+-, Fe3+- and O-rich "potassic-obertiite" (actually more likely "potassic-ferri-obertiite")

ⓘ Potassic-magnesio-fluoro-arfvedsonite
Formula: [(K,Na)][Na2][Mg4Fe3+][Si8O22][(F,OH)2]
Description: Described in paper as fluoro-potassic-magnesio-arfvedsonite. Analyses provided by Kullerud (2014) corresponds to potassic-fluoro-arfvedsonite, but the analyses show high T content (7.99 to 8.36 apfu), low C content (4.24 to 4.95 apfu) and high A (1.06 to 1.22 apfu). According to Hawthorne et al. (1993) such results are indicative of "incomplete chemical analyses (specifically, no determination of Li and H2O) and incorrect assumptions in the renormalization procedure".
