Km-3
A small ancient mine working a Ni deposit west of the town of Lavrion, situated close to the “Km 3” milepost on the road from the town of Lavrion to the village of Agios Konstantinos (formerly Kamareza), around 2.5 km from each.
One of the most famous localities within the Lavrion district, known for the world's best annabergite specimens, with bright green crystals reaching 1 cm. Most well-crystallized specimens are the Mg-rich variety termed “cabrerite” (obsolete name), showing bright apple-green colour.
Specimens can still be found in the dumps and, with very hard work, can be collected from outcrops of the mineralisation.
The literature also mentions unnamed adits “in the vicinity of km 3” (e.g. Hanke, 1998), in one of which gordaite was found.
Notes on the mineral list:
Glaukosphaerite has been described by Schnorrer & Breitenbach (1996). However, specimens of “glaukosphaerite” from this locality which have been fully analysed have turned out to be (Ni-bearing) rosasite. It is therefore in doubt whether most of the “glaukosphaerites” in collections are actually correctly identified. See also https://www.mindat.org/mesg-466785.html
