Beryller - south of ("Beryller"), Abichl Alp - Beryller area, Untersulzbach valley, Hohe Tauern Mts, Salzburg, Austria

(Beryller - südlich von ("Beryller"), Gebiet Abichlalm - Beryller, Untersulzbachtal, Hohe Tauern, Salzburg, Österreich)

Classical aquamarine occurrence in screes near the end of a rift leading down from Breitfuß mountain. This locality is well known since the 19th century and often referred to as Beryller. However, the place actually known as Beryller and noted as such on topographical maps is located about 1 km further north and, therefore, has to be regarded as a separate locality (see 'Beryller').
