Syngenetic stratabound siderite-ankerite mineralisation in the 'Innsbruck quartz phyllite zone'.
The deposit consists of two adits, of which the northern one, which is located at a slightly higher altitude, has collapsed. The southern adit (about 8 m lower than the northern one) has a length of 18 m.
Note: "Pfuns" (Wenger, 1973) seems to be a misprint.

Alphabetical List Tree DiagramDetailed Mineral List:
ⓘ Albite Formula: Na(AlSi3O8) Habit: sometimes twinned according to the albite law |
ⓘ Ankerite Formula: Ca(Fe2+,Mg)(CO3)2 Description: Paler in colour than the siderite occurring at the locality. Often lamellar twinning (lacking in siderite) can be observed microscopically. Found in the carbonate layers and finely distributed in the light-coloured contact schists. |
ⓘ Chalcopyrite Formula: CuFeS2 Description: Found in the carbonate zones (associated with tennantite-tetrahedrite series ("fahlore") and cobaltite), in schist (associated with rutile) and in the ore mineralisation zone. |
ⓘ Cobaltite Formula: CoAsS Description: Found in the contact schists and the siderite layers, associated with chalcopyrite and tennantite-tetrahedrite series ("fahlore"). |
ⓘ Dolomite Formula: CaMg(CO3)2 |
ⓘ Erythrite Formula: Co3(AsO4)2 · 8H2O Habit: crusts consisting of microscopic hemispheres, themselves consisting of acicular crystals Colour: pink Description: On the contact schists and on carbonates in the oxidation zone. |
ⓘ Goethite Formula: α-Fe3+O(OH) |
ⓘ 'Limonite' |
ⓘ Muscovite Formula: KAl2(AlSi3O10)(OH)2 |
ⓘ Muscovite var. Sericite Formula: KAl2(AlSi3O10)(OH)2 Description: Both micro- and macrogranular, as silky-lustre crusts in schists and on all harder minerals occurring at the locality. |
ⓘ Pyrite Formula: FeS2 Description: Found in the iron carbonate zones and in schist. Often associated with quartz and sometimes pseudomorphing to goethite. |
ⓘ Quartz Formula: SiO2 Colour: milky white Description: Fine-grained in schist, as "gangue" material, as "nests" in siderite and ankerite, as a constituent of quartz phyllite. |
ⓘ Rutile Formula: TiO2 Colour: yellow to yellow-brown (polarized light) Description: Abundant in phyllonite, fine-grained, stalks with partially rounded edges. Only identifiable in polarized light due to small grain size. Usually embedded in sericite and associated with chalcopyrite, pyrite, tennantite-tetrahedrite series ("fahlore") and cobaltite. |
ⓘ Siderite Formula: FeCO3 Description: Granular crystalline aggregates of up to 30cm. |
ⓘ 'Tennantite-Tetrahedrite Series' Description: "Fahlore" associated with chalcopyrite and/or cobaltite. |
