Uranlagerstätte Hirschbach I, Schleusingen, Landkreis Hildburghausen, Thüringen, Deutschland
Sandstone-hosted uranium deposit (also known as Friedberg, Hirschbach-Erlau or Schleusingen) comprising six small mines (Schurf 30, Stolln 28, Stolln 31, Schurf 25, Stolln 27a, Stolln 27b). Mined in 1950-1953 by SDAG Wismut with a total yield of ~14 tons uranium. Additional deposits were identified in the vicinity (Hirschbach II, Erlau, Eiserne Hand) but uranium was not produced from these.
