Das Na­tur­denk­mal Bren­nen­der Berg bei Dud­weil­erNördlich von Saarbrücken, zwischen Sulzbach und Neuweiler liegt der Brennende Berg. In seinem Inneren schwelt schon über 300 Jahren ein brennendes Kohleflöz. Je nach Wetterlage zeugt heute schweflig-modrig riechender Rauch, wenn auch längst nicht mehr so intensiv wie früher, von diesem unterirdischen Brandherd. An zwei bis drei Spalten tritt noch erkennbarer Wasserdampf aus. Die anzuteffenden pyritreichen, gefritteten Schiefertone, die eine rötliche Färbung aufweisen, gehören dem Westfal an.

Es handelt sich hierbei um das Landgruberflöz, später dann in Flöz Nr. 13, oder auch "Blücher" bzw. "Aster", umbenannt. Flöz Nr. 13 wird den Sulzbacher Schichten zugeordnet. Diese reichen von Leittonstein 5 bis zu Flöz Stolberg und erreichen Mächtigkeiten bis über 700 m und sind die kohlenreichste Schicht des Saarkarbon. Die Kohlenlager dieses Schichtkomplexes liegen bei über 100; davon sind 23 Flöze bauwürdig.

Für die Ursache des Brandes existieren verschiedene Theorien ... Ein Beitrag von Berthold Stein und Norbert Kirchhoff

The Mu­nich Show 2024The mineral fair ended successfully and the author of this article received only positive feedback. Many dealers were extremely satisfied. According to the organizer, 18,000 guests visited the halls on Saturday alone. Both days were a hive of activity and the numerous children's attractions were well received. Parents were everywhere with their children to complete the geo-rally.

For mineral collectors, the usual dealers were on site, although some tables remained empty. There were no highlights from the scene or overflowing tables with identical material from new finds. However, one stand with an impressive selection of Germanite chunks was a welcome novelty.

The special exhibition “The Impossible Crystal” was a success. Even if not all the exhibits could be described as “impossible crystal”, all the pieces were of the best quality and well worth seeing. In the B halls, the author visited the “Young Designers”, including a student who presented cast silver jewelry in an organic design that showed off the embedded stones to their best advantage - an impressive piece of work...

MarokkoDas Königreich Marokko ist Orient und Okzident in einem, nur einen Katzensprung von Europa entfernt (siehe nebenstehendes Foto). Die Kontraste zwischen Wüsten, Hochgebirgen, Berber-Dörfern mit mittelalterlichen Kasbah-Wohnburgen aus Stampflehm, den erhabenen Königsstädten Rabat, Meknes, Marrakech und Fes und dem modernen und hektischen Casablanca sind atemberaubend. Feine, lange Sandstrände am Mittelmeer und Atlantik, liebliche und sanfte Mittelgebirge mit dichtem Baumbestand von Kiefern und Zedern im Landesinneren (wo man auch Ski fahren und Forellen fischen kann), über die gewaltigen Massive des Hohen Atlas in die südliche Hammada-Wüste am Nordrand der Sahara mit Trockenflüssen - jeder Kilometer einer Reise durch Marokko ist ein Abenteuer für das ... ein Bericht von Peter Seroka

Beryl - (Goshenite, Aqua­marine, Emer­ald, Mor­ganite, He­lio­dore ...)Because of its form, color and transparency, Beryl has always fascinated people. Emeralds, aquamarines, heliodors and morganites were and are used for the manufacture of jewelry because of their beauty. The common beryl is the main source of the metal beryllium; 80 % of beryllium ore is mined in the United States. The largest known crystal reached a length of 18 m.

This lavishly researched and very comprehensive portrait by the author Peter Seroka relates to history, name origin, causes of color, occurrences , paragenesis and the use of this mineral and its varieties. Subchapters with numerous photographs and drawings deal with the extraordinary beauty of the mineral. Each chapter itself is a separate portrait of a distinctive variety and its characteristics, occurrences, use and history.

Min­er­al Por­trait PyriteThe term used in the plural "pyrites" has often been misused in the past or in common for marcasite, chalcopyrite, pyrrhotite and other yellow to brass-colored minerals. The word pyrite is derived from the Greek "pyrites lithos" (derived pyr = fire and lithos = stone) and describes a characteristic of the mineral, when rubbing against steel or flint (flint) to generate sparks. In prehistoric tombs pyrite concretions and unrolled pyrite where found, which supposed to be used for lighting a fire. (Article in German)
