Maubacher Bleiberg, Untermaubach, Düren, Eifel, Nordrhein-Westfalen, Deutschland


Triassic greywacke-quartz conglomerates including lead and minor zinc and copper ores, covered by a layer of sandstone.

The deposit was worked from an open cut for several centuries and finally abandoned in 1969.

Today, after some decades of use for dumping rubbish, the site is completely backfilled.

Located 2 km NNW of Untermaubach and about 7 km SW of Düren.

The Maubacher Bleiberg was an open-cast ore mine near Horm in the municipality of Hürtgenwald, Düren district, North Rhine-Westphalia. The ore mine ceased operations in 1969. The opencast mine then served as a landfill for the Düren district.

Mining activity on the Bleiberg was first mentioned in documents in 1527, but it came to a standstill at the end of the 16th century. It was not until 1870 to 1876 that an English company tried to operate a mining and processing plant again, but without success. At the beginning of the 20th century, Stolberger Zink AG and later the Reichsamt für Bodenforschung ("Reich Office for Soil Research") began exploring the deposit. In 1946, Stolberger Zink AG decided to start a trial operation with extraction and processing. First, underground exploration and mining work began. Based on their results, it was decided to build a large opencast mine in 1955. 15-20,000 tons of ore were mined annually and smelted in the Binsfeldhammer lead smelter and the Nievenheim zinc smelter. In 1969, mining at the Bleiberg ended because the deposit was exhausted. Four years later, the Horm landfill opened in the opencast mine. Until 2005, organic waste was stored like municipal waste, and since 2005 only mineral waste has been stored. The landfill should be closed in the meantime, but a new section for a class 1 landfill waste (e.g. construction rubble) was set up in 2019 because there was a need here.

Stratigraphically, the deposit belongs to the main Buntsandstein. This consists of an upper, ore-free layer up to 60 m thick and an underlying layer approx. 17 m thick with an average ore content of 2.7% lead and 0.9% zinc. This layer consists of sandstone and conglomerates. The ore-containing components, especially galena, are only found in the binder in sandstone, mainly in the form of thin flakes. In the conglomerates and also in the cracks that occur, however, the galena reaches grain sizes of a few centimeters. Sphalerite also does not appear as a developed mineral, but rather xenomorphically.

Geochronology

Mineralization age: Middle Jurassic : 170 ± 4 Ma

Important note: This table is based only on rock and mineral ages recorded on mindat.org for this locality and is not necessarily a complete representation of the geochronology, but does give an indication of possible mineralization events relevant to this locality. As more age information is added this table may expand in the future. A break in the table simply indicates a lack of data entered here, not necessarily a break in the geologic sequence. Grey background entries are from different, related, localities.
