Shaft 235, Crandorf, Schwarzenberg; Shaft 235 (WeiรŸer Hirsch mine), Antonsthal
Other Languages:
German:
Schacht 235 (Grube WeiรŸer Hirsch), Schwarzenberg/Erzgeb., Erzgebirgskreis, Sachsen, Deutschland


Shaft dump of a former uranium mine (which worked the deposit 'WeiรŸer Hirsch') of the Wismut SDAG, currently worked for gravel.
The dump is huge (1.5 million cubic metres) and is worked since 1995. Interesting minerals may be found from time to time.

Although the dumps are famous als "Antonsthal" they belong to Schwarzenberg, not Breitenbrunn as Antonsthal. Correct is therefore "Shaft 235, Crandorf, Schwarzenberg, Erzgebirgskreis, Saxony, Germany".
