This former mine is unfar Sparnberg, Thuringia at the district road towards Pottiga located. The surrounding is pretty well-known in the geologic fan community.

Description of the location: Brown iron stone (> Limonit !) and so-called 'Okererde' are known here at that slagheap. An information paneel descripes the former situation here at the border between Bavaria and Thuringia.

Enjoy your visit here! (Sources: own research; one picture is adopted by mineralienatlas of Thuringia, other pictures by Waymarkowner)
