Since the beginning of 20th century a quarry of Granodiorite is operating there, once used mostly for roads and squares paving. There is a small roadside chapel in the settlement. It was built in 1898.

The only known deposit of cizlakite (quartz monzogabbro; a green plutonic rock) in the world has been found near Cezlak.
