Birileiten, Mieslingtal, Spitz, Wachau, Niederösterreich, Österreich
Pegmatite occurrences across the ridge south of the Blocherleitengraben, on the opposite slope north of Windeckberg and along the stream bed.
Known for a chrysoberyl-bearing pegmatite (discovered in 1983) containing also nice dark brown-red deltoid icositetrahedral spessartine-dominant garnet crystals and prismatic schorl crystals (Voigt, 1984).
NOTE: The grid reference is centred on the main pegmatite occurrence.
