Jahrhundert (n.Chr.) zurück. Es fand ein Abbau im Ausbiß des Alten Lagers statt. Die erste urkundliche Erwähnung im Jahre 968 n.Chr. durch den Mönch Widukind besagt, dass Kaiser Otto der Große im Sachsenland "Silberadern" aufgeschlossen hat, um seine Kriege zu finanzieren...

A recent report from Sept. 2012 shows that good finds are still possible. To visit this mine is relatively easy. The evacuation of the gypsum needels on the other hand is more difficult. Unfortunately, vandals have left their mark, but read and see it yourself. A report by Stefan Schorn. (Article in German) |

Not negligible for this reason, the idea or the concept of a twin crystal are often associated with a macroscopic building. Modern studies at the nano scale have shown that the formation of twins can occur at a very early stage of crystal growing. Based on these findings, it does beg the request to reconsider the formation mechanisms, and adjacency to the newly different categories. (Text in german) |
