Feld an der Hochstraße, Rengersdorf, Görlitz, Oberlausitz, Sachsen, Deutschland
Several phosphate minerals occur in small quantities in vugs in limonite pebbles from the fields and meadows in the triangle Rengersdorf - Kodersdorf - Wiesa. Their visual appearance does not suffice for reliable identification. E.g., the Dufrénite had initially been mistaken for Rockbridgeite.
