Ancient mine that worked on copper, iron, and quartz veins; in the 20th century there was a trial on a fluorite vein. Located near Stöckaten (some farmhouses belonging to Siebenhitz). In the 16th century, some other mines worked in the area for copper and iron. In 2011 the adit was eliminated, on order by the local mine authority. Before, it was sometimes possible to enter the adit.

Note: Coordinates are approximate only (they are those of Stöckaten).
