Laggerhof, Millstätter See, Spittal, Millstätter Seenrücken, Kärnten, Österreich
Minerals from a large pegmatite block found 1984 near Laggerhof on the south shore of Millstatt lake, about 7 km E of Spittal. The block likely originates from one of the pegmatites near Spittal and was transported to its present position during the last ice age. Though, its exact provenance is still not known.
