Hauki quartzite (
Swedish : Haukikvartsiten ) is a rock unit of
quartz arenite found in northernmost
Sweden .
[1] More
arkosic parts are of reddish colour but otherwise made of light grey rocks.

[2] Apart from quart arenite the unit hosts some
conglomerates with clasts of
phyllite and
quartz porphyry .
[2] The clasts are derived from the nearby units of
Hopukka Formation ,
Loussavaara Formation and
Matojärvi Formation .
