Ορυχείο #19, Σούνιο, Λαύριο, Αττική, Ελλάδα

Note: The German mineral dealer Wolfgang Wendel used the unnecessary name "Chloridstollen (which means "Chloride adit") for this adit.

Note on the mineral list: All specimens of supposed botallackite (or "zincian botallackite") which have been analyzed in a lab to date have turned out to be the new species kapellasite. It is presently not certain if botallackite actually exists here; therefore it has been changed to a questionable species on the list.
