Name(s) in local language(s):
Alpeiner Scharte, Valser Tal, Silltal (Wipptal), Nordtirol, Tirol, Österreich
Molybdenite-bearing quartz veins, hosted by gneisses. The deposit, already described in 1774, was worked for some time during the second world war, but failed to be profitable and therefore, the mine was soon abandoned.
Located at an altitude of 2790-2820 m a.s.l. near the Alpeiner Scharte, in the upper Vals valley.
