Gold mine active in the 16th century.
Worked on a Au-Ag-Pb-Bi-Te-mineralisation. The minerals listed were found in outcrops and on dumps.
The mine is within the National Park Hohetauern (Kernzone). To collect there you need a license from the National Park comitee, an agreement of the land owner and if you want to see the mine an agreement from the Rojacher hut and from the owner of the mining rights.
Located about 100 m N of the Rojacher hut ('Rojacherhütte').
