Sie ist zudem Typlokalität zweier Mineralien und Heimat cm großer Saphire. Erik Hock lädt uns mit seinem Beitrag zu einem spanndenen Rundgang auf diese Insel ein und gibt uns einen Einblick in die dortigen geologischen Gegebenheiten. Auch die dem Bericht untergeordneten Lokalitäten sind einen Blick wert. |
