Abstract/NotesSpecial issue about the Lengenbach locality (French adaptation from an article by Philippe Roth, Thomas Raber, Eva Drechsler and Ralph Cannon previously published in "The Mineralogical Record")


RÉSUMÉ
Le gisement du Lengenbach est célèbre auprès des scientifiques et des collectionneurs de minéraux depuis le début du 19e siècle. Avec ses 46 nouvelles espèces minérales, la carrière du Lengenbach se classe parmi les cinq localités-type les plus prolifiques au monde. Mais, contrairement à beaucoup d’autres, son corps minéralisé est petit et n'a jamais été exploité pour autre chose que des fins scientifiques et de collection. Aujourd'hui encore, elle produit d'excellents spécimens d'espèces rares, principalement des sulfosels de plomb, de thallium, d'argent, de cuivre et d'arsenic.
Mots clés : Lengenbach ; localité-type ; sulfosels ; plomb ; thallium ; argent ; cuivre ; arsenic.

ABSTRACT
The Lengenbach deposit has been famous among scientists and mineral collectors since the early 19th century. With its 46 new mineral species, the Lengenbach quarry ranks among the five most prolific type localities in the world. But, unlike many others, its mineralized body is small and has only been mined for scientific and collection purposes. It still produces excellent specimens of rare species, primarily sulfosalts of lead, thallium, silver, copper and arsenic.
Keywords : Lengenbach ; type locality ; sulfosalts ; lead ; thallium; silver ; copper ; arsenic.
