Not much information on this locale, I’m afraid!

Mindat lists various minerals from this locale, but of most interest are the Andradite garnet specimens from the site.

The quarry is still visible on satellite photos – whether it is still in use or not I’m afraid I don’t know. I was not able to find much information on this quarry online.
