Revier Mitterberg, Mühlbach am Hochkönig, Bezirk St. Johann im Pongau, Salzburg, Österreich
Ancient copper mining area worked intermittently from prehistoric times until 1977. Evidence for prehistoric mining (dating back about 4,000 years, with major activity during the Bronze Age) was discovered in 1872, modern mining started in 1829 and ceased in 1977.
The district can be divided into a south district ('Südrevier'), with Brander, Burgschweig and Birkstein (Bürgstein) veins, and an east district ('Ostrevier') with Winkel and Buchberg veins.
Processing and smelting of the ores from the district were centred at and around Mühlbach am Hochkönig. About 190 smelting sites are known in the area between this town and Bischofshofen.
The main ores, chalcopyrite, tennantite, and pyrite, were included in an ENE-WSW striking carbonate-rich vein, pervading Carboniferous and Permian schists, quartzite-phyllites and sericite-phyllites (in the order of increasing depth). Rich ores were also found inside veins on the upper levels, hosted in fissures and fault zones in the schists. In some places in the area, rich nickel ores were found. Uranium mineralizations were almost exclusively restricted to side veins explored by the Anna adit, where pitchblende nodules to 6 cm in diameter occurred abundantly.
The ancient mines and deposits concentrate around Mitterberg mountain (NE of Mühlbach am Hochkönig) and on the eastern slope of Hochkeil mountain.
Geologically, the deposit is situated just south of the boundary between the Salzburger Kalkalpen Mts (limestones) to the north and the Dienten Mts (greywackes) to the south.
A 2.5-3 h tourist mining trail ('Mitterberger Erzweg') with 15 info-stops informs about the history of the district. A mining museum and tourist mine in Mühlbach am Hochkönig can also be visited.
The grid reference is centred on the Arthur-house.
