This complex consists of carbonatite, malignite (named shonkinite), nepheline syenite, aplitic syenite and pyroxenite. It occurs as a deformed, 2 km long and 500 m wide sill hosted within the Klubben Psammite, a metasedimentary unit of the Kalak Nappe Complex.

Andradite var. Melanite
Formula: Ca3(Fe3+,Ti)2(SiO4)3
'Apatite'
Formula: Ca5(PO4)3(Cl/F/OH)
Baddeleyite
Formula: ZrO2
Baryte
Formula: BaSO4
'Biotite'
Formula: K(Fe2+/Mg)2(Al/Fe3+/Mg/Ti)([Si/Al/Fe]2Si2O10)(OH/F)2
Calcite
Formula: CaCO3
Celestine
Formula: SrSO4
Chalcopyrite
Formula: CuFeS2

Diopside
Formula: CaMgSi2O6
'Ferro-ferri-sadanagaite' ?
Formula: {Na}{Ca2}{Fe2+3Fe3+2}(Al3Si5O22)(OH)2
Description: One of five amphibole analyses presented by Zozulya et al.(2018) normalizes to ferro-ferri-sadanagaite using Locock(2014). The analyses normalizes with more than 1 apfu in the A position, less than 5 apfu in the C position, and the C3+ content is barely exceeding 1.5 apfu. The analyzed sample is not described, so the relation with the dominant magnesio-hastingiste is not established. Further work will be necessary to confirm the presence of this mineral at the locality
'Ferro-ferri-taramite' ?
Formula: Na(CaNa)(Fe2+3Fe3+2)(Al2Si6O22)(OH)2
Description: One of five amphibole analyses presented by Zozulya et al.(2018) normalizes to ferro-ferri-taramite using Locock(2014). The analyses normalizes with more than 1 apfu in the A position, less than 5 apfu in the C position, and the Na B normalizes to 0.502apfu. The analyzed sample is not described, so the relation with the dominant magnesio-hastingiste is not established. With the uncertainties in the quality of the analysis and calculations of the Fe3+ content, further work will be necessary to confirm the presence of this mineral at the locality
Gonnardite
Formula: (Na,Ca)2(Si,Al)5O10 · 3H2O
Hastingsite
Formula: NaCa2(Fe2+4Fe3+)(Si6Al2)O22(OH)2
Description: Zozulya et al. (2018) refers to amphiboles with their root name only. The hastingsite root name amphibole normalizes to magnesio-hastingsite, not hastingsite.
Hedenbergite
Formula: CaFe2+Si2O6
Magnesio-hastingsite
Formula: NaCa2(Mg4Fe3+)(Si6Al2)O22(OH)2
Description: Magnasio-hastingsite is the dominant amphibole at the locality, and it occurs as anhedral and subhedral grains of 0.3–5 mm size. The mineral also occurs as individual grains and as overgrowths on pyroxene. Rarely, amphibole forms up to 1 cm poikilitic grains with inclusions of calcite and pyroxene.
Magnetite
Formula: Fe2+Fe3+2O4
Natrolite
Formula: Na2Al2Si3O10 · 2H2O
Nepheline
Formula: Na3K(Al4Si4O16)
Pyrite
Formula: FeS2
'Pyroxene Group'
Formula: ADSi2O6
Pyrrhotite
Formula: Fe1-xS
Quartz
Formula: SiO2
Sadanagaite
Formula: {Na}{Ca2}{Mg3Al2}(Si5Al3O22)(OH)2
Description: Zozulya et al. (2018) refers to amphiboles with their root name only. All presented amphibole analyses are ferri-dominant, which is consisted with the carbonatite host rock.
Scheelite
Formula: Ca(WO4)
Taramite
Formula: Na(CaNa)(Mg3Al2)(Al2Si6O22)(OH)2
Description: Zozulya et al. (2018) refers to amphiboles with their root name only. All presented amphibole analyses are ferri-dominant, which is consisted with the carbonatite host rock.
Thomsonite-Ca
Formula: NaCa2[Al5Si5O20] · 6H2O
Titanite
Formula: CaTi(SiO4)O
Zircon
Formula: Zr(SiO4)
