This locality is situated in the western pegmatite belt which stretches from Loch Sunart, across Loch Shiel to Knoydart. British Geological Survey Petrology Collection sample number MC 7393. Typically the pegmatite bodies comprise veins and similar bodies of quartz-rich pegmatite containing large books of white mica (muscovite) and occur within the highly metamorphosed Moine (Precambrian) series. This area as well as the Strathpeffer, Garve area underwent extensive exploration for commercial deposits of mica during the Second World War. This deposit was not worked commercially though the deposit further north in Knoydart was successfully worked.
