Grube Liebeneck (Ruine Liebeneck), Würm, Pforzheim, Regierungsbezirk Karlsruhe, Baden-Württemberg, Deutschland
Limonite- and baryte-baring, vertical vein in sandstone, outcropping near the ruin of Liebeneck castle, about 7 km SE of Pforzheim.
The mine was already operated in the 18th century, but abandoned because of poor ores. Between 1936 and 1943 the adit was driven over 350 m.
