Bärnbad Mine
Name(s) in local language(s):
Bergbau Bärenbad (Bergbau Bärnbad), Scharnbachgraben, Hollersbachtal, Hohe Tauern, Salzburg, Österreich
Small ancient mining area, working a sulphide-rich quartz body embedded in chloritized micaschists.
These rocks belong to the Habach formation, which also hosts the scheelite deposit in the Felben valley.
The main ores were galena and chalcopyrite, carrying up to 18 g/t of gold, 360 g/t of silver and 0.05 g/kg of both selenium and tellurium. Several adits and outcrops are mentioned in the old literature.
Located on the northern slopes of the lower Scharnbachgraben, a small western branch of the Hollersbach valley.
The coordinates mark the Scharnbachgraben stream, not the mine itself.
