Kupferbergbau, Großfragant, Innerfragant, Goldberggruppe, Hohe Tauern, Kärnten, Österreich
Ancient copper and silver mining area at an altitude of 1735-2200 m, in the Großfragant valley (side valley of the Fragant valley). The first records of mining activities date back to the 16th century. However, copper was mined here probably much earlier. After the First World War, the workings were abandoned.
Located in the eastern Goldberg group.
