Name(s) in local language(s):
Důl Kladno v Libušíně


A coal mine that started in 1899 as the Schoeller mine (after Gustav Schoeller, Austrian mining entrepreneur). From 1946, it was named the Zdeněk Nejedlý Mine (historian, musicologist, and minister of culture in the communist government); from 1951, the Nejedlý I Mine. After 1990, it was again renamed Kladno Mine in Libušín. Terminated in 2002 after the 2001 methane explosion with four casualties.

The mine was active for exactly 100 years, and in total, 45,768,396 tonnes of coal were mined. The depth of the mine pit is 533 m; the shaft bottom is at 518 m. The famous burning dumps of the Schoeller mine are now fully recultivated.

Notes on the mineral list:

The famous minerals from the burning coal dumps in the Kladno area occurred mainly here, but also in other mines with (temporarily) burning dumps. Since the literature only rarely gives the specific mine, these minerals are listed under Kladno.

— Salammoniac: fine crystals on matrix and nice thumbnail specimens from this classic locality. Salammoniac forms on volcanic rocks near fume-releasing vents. There is no liquid phase, as the mineral crystallises from these fumes in a process called 'sublimation'. The crystallisation occurs as the gases are escaping, and crystals tend to be short-lived. Salammoniac is very soluble in water, and crystals will be removed during the first rain of their existence, so to speak, if they are not removed by collectors first.

— Godovikovite: a rare mineral that looks like porous ochre masses on matrix, with nice specimens from this classic locality. Godovikovite is a rare sulphate mineral with the chemical formula (NH₄)Al(SO₄)₂. Aluminium can partially be substituted by iron. Hydration of godovikovite gives the ammonium alum, tschermigite. The mineral forms cryptocrystalline, often porous, masses, usually of white colour. Single crystals are very small hexagonal blades. A typical environment for godovikovite is burning coal sites (mainly dumps). There, the mineral acts, together with millosevichite, as one of the main components of the so-called sulphate crust.

— An unnamed aluminium chloride, Al₂Cl(OH)₅.2H₂O, associated with lesukite.
