Steinbruch bei Am Schuร, Weiten, Bezirk Melk, Niederรถsterreich, รsterreich
Small, abandoned, very overgrown quarry in marble, calcsilicate and graphite gneiss.
The graphite gneiss locally contains V-minerals (goldmanite, the grossular variety "tsavorite" and V-bearing varieties of other silicates) associated with pyrite. The mineralogy of this assemblage is somewhat similar to those of the famous African tsavorite occurrences and a similar genesis is inferred (Kolitsch et al., 2022).
