Most of the minerals from this locale come from dumps from several small workings, so it is very difficult to tie any finds to a more specific dig site.

Mindat lists 97 mineral species found around this locale, including one species for which it is the type locality – Sekaninaite.

Some nice specimens of Garnet, Feldspar and Tourmaline were collected from the locality in the past; now it is reclaimed land and visiting is not allowed. Any stock from this locale is likely to be from older collections.
