==Mine== thumb|left|View of the entrance to the mine The Skorovas Gruber mine was the first in Norway to exploit a sulphide ore deposit and produced zinc and copper. The mine discharged tailings into a nearby lake, but the contamination from this process has been deemed relatively slight. The mine closed in 1984. Before its closing, virtually everyone that lived in and around Skorovatn worked directly or indirectly for the mining operation.
