(visited by Alpar Kovacs and Zsolt Kulcsar)

29-Aug-2020 -- When my friend invited on a fishing trip on the Lainio river (Lainioälven) decided to influence him to include also the CP visit and the Kristallen mineral collection in Lannavaara. https://kristallen.com/en/activities/mineral-museum We used the same approach as the previous visitor, the barrier (at 67°58'38.1"N 22°00'09.6"E) was open, but we decided to leave the car at the junction. Walked ~2.5 km to the end of the road, then continued on the footpath and weep round the small lake to get the CP. The metamorphic bedrock (2.05-1.96 Ga) is overburden, but the area is well explored for iron and sulphide mineralization. https://apps.sgu.se/geolagret/srv/swe/catalog.search#/metadata/md-07ec5c14-e488-491c-8151-306bb8003f29/formatters/xsl-view?root=div&view=advanced
