Description: The Kaatiala quarry in Kuortane, active from 1942 to 1968 for feldspar and quartz extraction, is now a notable recreational site. It serves as a popular destination for collectors due to remaining gemstones in rubble piles and is a renowned sport diving spot in Finland, attracting visitors with its clear, deep waters (nearly 40 meters) and underwater features. The quarry is also significant for being the discovery site of the mineral Kaatialaite. An annual Nature and Mineral Day is held there each autumn.diving video at kaatiala diving video 2 at kaatiala
