Jh eingestürzten Bergbaus auf Zinn mit den umliegenden Halden (Beran 2006). Diese stammen sowohl aus dem geschichtlichen Bergbau, wie auch aus den Aktivitäten -untertage und übertage- in jüngster Zeit (20. Jh., Einstellung des Betriebs der Stannum 1991, Bergbau auf Wolfram und Zinn).

Auf der Fundstellenseite wird auf einen Beitrag des Förderbvereins der Lithothek verlinkt. Diese haben die Fundstelle in der Lithothek aufgearbeitet.

This is the most com­pre­hen­sive syn­op­sis re­lat­ed to the his­to­ry, the min­er­al­o­gy, the ex­ploi­ta­tion and the most ac­tu­al eco­nom­ic and po­lit­i­cal re­sumé on rare earth el­e­ments and their min­er­als to be found in the in­ter­net. REE be­long to the most im­por­tant raw ma­te­rials of the 21st cen­tu­ry, which are used ... moreThis is the most comprehensive synopsis related to the history, the mineralogy, the exploitation and the most actual economic and political resumé on rare earth elements and their minerals to be found in the internet. REE belong to the most important raw materials of the 21st century, which are used in a large number of key technologies. However, due to the fact that almost 97% of the world's REE are mined and produced in China, REE have become an ongoing political issue, mainly amongst technology providing countries like the US, Japan and Western Europe.

This portrait tries to explain the characteristics of REE and their role for our modern world. Written and investigated by Peter Seroka. (Article in german)

Ac­tu­al­ly, this is a pic­turesque place in a well-kept for­est. Nev­er­the­less, in the past, evil it­self is said to have preached to the damned here from a large, sol­i­tary, tow­er­ing rock spur. To­day, the term Dev­il's Pul­pit in­spires one to play with as­so­ci­a­tions, as do the draw­ings of agates found here. ... moreActually, this is a picturesque place in a well-kept forest. Nevertheless, in the past, evil itself is said to have preached to the damned here from a large, solitary, towering rock spur. Today, the term Devil's Pulpit inspires one to play with associations, as do the drawings of agates found here. Their fantastic outlines, coupled with the unusual shape of the secondary rock, evoke images in the viewer that he would not have suspected in a stone. And on the devil's pulpit no longer an evil demon is waiting for the agate collector, but other executive powers threatening with purgatory... a contribution by Klaus Schäfer and others (in german)

Der Be­griff "Schie­fer" ist ein Pol­y­sem, welch­er seit grauer Vorzeit (al­thochdeutsch sci­varo (Holz-, Stein­s­plit­ter); mit­tel­hochdeutsch schiv­er(e) (Stein-, Holzs­plit­ter); mit­tel­nied­erdeutsch schiv­er (Schie­fer, Schin­del) bis heute nicht scharf definiert und dif­ferenziert wurde. All­ge­mein und berg­män­nis ... moreDer Begriff "Schiefer" ist ein Polysem, welcher seit grauer Vorzeit (althochdeutsch scivaro (Holz-, Steinsplitter); mittelhochdeutsch schiver(e) (Stein-, Holzsplitter); mittelniederdeutsch schiver (Schiefer, Schindel) bis heute nicht scharf definiert und differenziert wurde. Allgemein und bergmännisch werden als Schiefer deutlich parallel angeordnete, in dünnen, ebenen Platten spaltbare Gesteine bezeichnet. Unter diesen Sammelbegriff fallen jedoch auch Tonschiefer, Schieferton, Tonstein, kristalline Schiefer, echte und unechte, kristalline und metamorphe Schiefer und viele, viele synonyme Schiefer-Wortgebilde und lokale Bezeichnungen- was nicht zu einer eindeutigen Definition beiträgt.

Nicht anders war (und ist) die Verwirrung in England, wo die Begriffe slate, shale und shist nicht deutlich getrennt wurden; im untertage Kohlebergbau hieß shale auch häufig slate. In Spanien heißt der für Dächer und Tafeln verwendete Schiefer pizarra, petrologisch aber equisto bzw. arcilla equistosa; im französischen heißen wissenschaftlich alle Schiefer schiste, aber der im Steinbruch gebrochene Schiefer ist ....

The former "Eisen­ham­mer" (iron ham­mer) to He­im­buchen­thal has to show a very in­ter­est­ing his­to­ry. The ham­mer mill estab­lished at the be­gin­n­ing of the 18th cen­tu­ry reached at the end of the 18th cen­tu­ry in the pos­ses­sion of the fam­i­ly Rexroth un­der whose gui­dance the com­pany came to the full blos­som. ... moreThe former "Eisenhammer" (iron hammer) to Heimbuchenthal has to show a very interesting history. The hammer mill established at the beginning of the 18th century reached at the end of the 18th century in the possession of the family Rexroth under whose guidance the company came to the full blossom. The squires showed a high social engagement which was reflected in the reimbursement of the workers, but also in the enlargement of the entrance ways. In specially constructed schools up to 30 children were teaches on the hammer mill property. On one, from oaks surrounded cemetery the late squires and their members were buried. In 1891 the company was discontinued and the hammer mill was converted into a court estate. From the industrial monument all buildings except the great smithy are even today in a very good state.
