Albitite deposits - Located on the northern and southwest edges of Dennis Hill, but not a nepheline syenite and not found with cancrinite and related species from the nearby Dennis Hill nepheline syenite. Has been prospected as a very small outcrop about 50 meters north of Route 126 as well as small ledges near Dennis Brook.
