(Niedermendig, Mendig, Laacher See Komplex, Eifel, Rheinland-Pfalz, Deutschland)

Niedermendig is the northern district of the city of Mendig. Specimens labelled as coming from Niedermendig originate from one of the nearby quarries:

- Basalt quarries (e.g. on Wingertsberg mountain)

The pumice quarries are listed as sub-localities to this entry. The basalt quarries, owing to a different geology, are listed separately (see http://www.mindat.org/loc-122497.html).
