Åmland 2 feltspatbrudd, Åmland, Evje og Hornnes, Agder, Norge
An old feldspar quarry worked on a granite pegmatite dike located about 100m E of the Midtre Åmland Farm.
Andersen (1931)'s designation: "Åmland II".
Comment by Ronald Werner:
I haven't yet visited this quarry (jan. 2018), and a study of aerial pictures and altitude map didn't result in a positive identification of the locality. At the given location I definitely see a quarry, but it doesn't seem to correspond with Andersen (1931). This requires a visit to Åmland.
