St Andreas Fundgrube (Schacht 80), Annaberg, Annaberg-Buchholz, Revier Annaberg, Erzgebirge, Sachsen, Deutschland


An old silver and cobalt mine, earlier known as St Andreas Mine hinterm Hospital (St Andreas Fundgrube hinterm Hospital). The records show that it was worked from 1701 until 1836, but it was probably started much earlier. The sett with all of its workings was later included with the St Michaelis Mine. From 1947 until 1956, the mine was reworked for uranium.

The mine worked on the following veins:
- Andreas Hoffnung Spat
- Augusta Spat
- Bernhardt Spat
- Bürger Freude Flacher
- Friedrich Morgengang
- Frisch Glück Morgengang
- Gabe Gottes Flacher
- Neuglücker Flacher
- Raben Glück Flacher
- Schwarzer Flacher
- Schwarzer Spat
- Weißer Schwan Flacher (Weißschwaner Flacher)

Note: Not to be confused with the St Andreas Mine on Pöhlberg hill.
