Rauriser Goldberg, Kolm-Saigurn, Gebiet Alteck - Hoher Sonnblick, Hüttwinkltal, Rauriser Tal, Hohe Tauern, Salzburg, Österreich
Ancient gold mine, working 26 NNE trending gold-bearing quartz veins from different levels. The old workings which are now inaccessible belong to the most extensive ones in the Hohe Tauern Mts. The gold was mostly extracted from sulphidic ores with gold contents up to 56 g/t, but it also occurred as wires and as small crystals, included in quartz or associated with rock crystal. Some fairly extensive dumps still remain, but fail to yield reasonable specimens.
Located SE of Kolm-Saigurn, in the upper Hüttwinkl valley.
