Mineralienatlas (name for mineral atlas) is the platform for people interested in mineralogy, geology, palaeontology and mining since 2001. We operate a significant database for minerals, fossils, rocks and their localities. Mineralienatlas is not limited to a section. We bring together information and inform comprehensive.

To complete our information constantly, we need your support. With us, everyone can and should participate. Currently Mineralienatlas is used and expanded by 10587 members. Every month hundreds of thousands of visitors use our website as an information source.
 
Geolitho Foundation non-profit GmbH
Geolitho Foundation non-profit GmbH is the non-profit supporter of the Mineral Atlas (Mineralienatlas), the Lithotheque, the Geolitho Collection Management and the Marketplace and Store by collectors for collectors. The Foundation promotes public education in the field of mineralogy, geology, paleontology and mining by operating, maintaining and further expanding earth science projects.

Min­er­al por­trait - Cerus­siteWho first discovered the mineral cerussite and where it was first found remains in the darkness of history. However, to give it a name, the first mention is attributed to the Renaissance scholar Conrad Gesner - which does not mean, however, that he discovered or first described the mineral. (Gesner (1516 to 1565) is considered the most famous and important naturalist and scholar of Switzerland)..... A mineral portrait of our unfortunately deceased friend Peter Seroka

Oden­waldDer Odenwald gehört zu den Varisciden – ein Gebirge welches bei der Kollision der Paläo-Kontinente Gondwana und Euramerika im mittleren Karbon, vor etwa 360-290 Mio. Jahren entstand. Im Zuge der variszischen Orogenese bildeten sich neben dem Odenwald unter anderem das Rheinische Schiefergebirge, Harz, Schwarzwald, Erzgebirge und der Spessart. Diese Aufbrüche des Grundgebirges sind Teil der sogenannten Mitteldeutschen Kristallinschwelle – eine Reihe von mehr oder weniger isolierten Kristallingebieten - die von der Haardt im Pfälzerwald über den kristallinen Odenwald und Spessart, das Ruhlaer Kristallin und Kyffhäuser bis nach Osteuropa verlaufen.

Min­er­alien­por­trait Diop­tasSeit dem Altertum ist Smaragd aufgrund seiner Schönheit und seiner ungewöhnlich lebhaft grünen Farbe als Edelstein begehrt. Jedoch - nach dem Spruch "Es ist nicht alles Gold, was glänzt" - sind nicht alle "Edelsteine" mit dieser attraktiven Farbe auch tatsächlich Smaragd gewesen. In der Geschichte finden sich dafür zahlreiche Beispiele. Immer wieder wurden neu entdeckte Mineralien, die mit bekannten und als Edelstein geschätzten Steinen in Farbe und Charakteristika übereinstimmten, fälschlich als echt gehandelt und verarbeitet. Eines dieser Mineralien, welches wegen seiner Farbe sehr lange als Smaragd galt, ist Dioptas. Ein Mineralienportrait geschrieben von Peter Seroka.

The Mu­nich Mi­cro­moun­ters and their Lithothek„What will be the fate of my collection once I will no longer be able to collect? There are specimens of unique beauty and extreme rarity in the collection, pieces that cannot be replaced since some localities are closed or have been obliterated. All this might be thrown away because not many people realise the value and importance hidden in these little unimpressive boxes”. Many micromounters are worried by these considerations and other factors. “My collection is an important part of my life and of my personality. If my collection dissapears, I too, will cease to exist without trace”. We, the Micromounters of the Münchener Mineralienfreunde, are no exception. Many times the future of our collections was subject of our discussions and conversations. Children and grand children are not always appreciative of their parents’ or grandparents’ passion.

Min­er­al Days in Mu­nich 2012 or „The Mu­nich Show“For the 49th year once again the Munich Mineral Show was held. A few years ago under the old leadership the motto almost entirely stood under the theme of minerals and fossils. This year not only the name seems to change away from the "Munich Mineral Show" changing to "The Munich Show". The new exhibition management, led by the young Mr. Keilmann seems not quite knowing where to go or has something bigger in mind. One can imagine something in "Munich Mineral Days", it is difficult in the name "The Munich Show". The new show management seems to leave the common way, to keep all options open with a new name. - A comment and fair report written in german language by Stefan Schorn

Münch­berg­er Gneis­masseDie Münchberger Gneismasse ist ein isoliertes Vorkommen von z.T. hochmetamorphen kristallinen Gesteinen inmitten des "Alten Gebirges" Nordostbayerns. Sie liegt mit einer Südwest-Nordost-Ausdehnung von etwa 35km und eine Breite von ca. 15km in einem Synklinorium des Autochthons, der Vogtländisch-Erzgebirgischen Mulde.

In­di­ca­tor stoneA Scandinavian indicator stone is a glacial erratic composed of a characteristic rock type derived from a small known source area in Scandinavia. This term not only applies to igneous and metamorphic rocks but also to some sedimentary rocks. The Jotnian Sandstone and most of the Palaeozoic limestones, and the Old Red Sandstone are not included in the definition, although the presence of these and other rocks provide some evidence about the source area(s) of erratics and should certainly not be neglected in a stone count. In all cases we recommend including the whole assemblage of erratics/stones in such account. This makes it possible to use several methods of Interpretation. However, it should be pointed out that the practise used in the past, whereby each researcher had her/his own method of interpreting stone counts, has proved to be unsatisfactory. We demonstrate on the bases of over 2000 counts of indicator stones that we have carried out on assemblages mostly from Lower Saxony and Schleswig-Holstein, but also from other N.German states and neighbouring countries, that the TGZ method (LÜTTIG 1958) yields the most reliable results. In addition to this method, the sources of individual indicator stones may be plotted on a so-called circle map and can be integrated with possible source data and the relative frequencies of other erratics in the assemblage. Some rock types are more suitable as indicator stones then others. It is unwise to use clearly unsuitable rock types; this would considerably reduce the reliability of the method and lead to erroneous results.
