Eudidymitt-Epididymitt lokaliteten, Vesle Arøya, Larvik, Vestfold, Norge
Nepheline syenite pegmatite dike in larvikite located on the south-eastern part of Vesle Arøya. Most of the pegmatite was blasted away in the 1890s during search for thorite. The dike can be followed in the east-west direction from the sea shore for a distance of 30 m, but the main part is heavily blasted and partly refilled by debris and garden waste.
A description of morphology of the eudidymite and epididymite from this locality was given by Flink (1899). Most of the minerals listed below have been collected from the dump in 1980-2000.
