Belonged to the Marienschacht mine, at first an experimental mine, later in the 1960s no longer profitable and closed. The shafts were backfilled and the entrance blasted in 1965. It was called Warnbachgang( the Warnbach village is not far away) later Marienschacht 2. It consisted of a gallery (length approx. 200 m), an air shaft and another shaft with a 50 m level gallery.
In the 1990s the gallery was open and it was possible to visit it, but the timber support system was collapsed and very dangerous. Some fluorite specimen could be found. In 2021 the area is totally overgrown, not very much is visible any more.
