Sandriegel (Gasteil Cu I; Kupfergrube), Gasteil, Prigglitz, Industrieviertel, Niederösterreich, Österreich


Small Cu ore outcrop 700 m N of Gasteil, mined for 4000 years.
Large overgrown Late Bronze-age dumps on the area of a farm ('Gehöft Gruber').
The Late Bronze-age mine was active between ca. 1050 BC to ca. 780 BC. The chalcopyrite ore was smelted to obtain very pure copper.

Archaeological studies in the 1950s and since 2010, with permission of the farm owner.
The ore mineralisation consists of chalcopyrite, minor pyrite and only traces of other sulphides. The occurrence of cassiterite, stannite and tourmaline is noteworthy.
