Grube Max, Krandorf, Schwarzenfeld, Schwandorf, Oberpfalz, Bayern, Deutschland
Ancient fluorite mine (abandoned in 1975), working a lead-bearing fluorite vein hosted by granite.
Located 1.5 km SE of Krandorf and about 8 km ESE of Schwarzenfeld.
Remnants of prospects in the forest near the old mine site produced nice, bright green pyromorphite crystals on quartz until the 1970s and 1980s.
