Abandoned sedimentary Fe-Hg deposit in Ordovician volcanosedimentary rocks od Barrandien. Iron and mercury mines worked from 14th century to 1857, then for the last time shortly during 1917. Old mines and pits are currently on the border of military area on the side of Jedova hill (Poisonous hill) above village Neřežín.
