Sedl, Leckbachgraben (Leckbachrinne), Nasenkopf Mt., Habach valley, Hohe Tauern Mts, Salzburg, Austria

(Sedl, Leckbachgraben (Leckbachrinne), Nasenkopf, Habachtal, Hohe Tauern, Salzburg, Österreich)

Mineralizations in ultrabasic rocks (rodingite, serpentinite), biotite schists and chlorite schists. Friedrichite was first discovered in sulphide-bearing quartzite boulders, which probably originate from the Leckbachscharte and were deposited at their present location by rockslides. This also compares well to a recent find in screes in the upper Leckbachgraben. However, friedrichite does possibly also occur as an associate of the sulphide mineralizations in rodingite.
Located a few hundred meters below the emerald deposit.
