Brno Massif, western part. Active quarry exhibiting folded partly migmatized muscovite-biotite up to biotite gneisses. Except of common rock forming minerals they contain cordierite, sillimanite and garnet. Migmatized parts are banded with biotitic melanosome and quartz-feldspar leucosome. Also several metres thickl veins of medium grained biotite up to muscovite-biotite granites occur in this quarry. In the lowermost quarry parts bodies of metagabbro are present.
