This locality page serves as an umbrella to list and organize several sub-localities spread nearby the most prominent topographic feature of the area: the Brandberg complex. These include the Goboboseb mountains, the Brandberg West mine, the Karlowa pegmatite swarm, and the Messum igneous complex and crater, all of which together cover an area of roughly 3,500 km².
Important mineral collecting note: Although amethyst specimens have been found within the Brandberg complex (where digging is prohibited, as it is a protected World Heritage Site), the majority of the material circulating on the market actually originates from the Goboboseb mountains. However, dealers often label these specimens as "Brandberg", as the complex is a better-known and more widely recognized locality (see Cairncross, B. & Bahmann, U., 2006 for further details).

Geochronology
Mineralization age: Late Jurassic : 149 ± 1 MaImportant note: This table is based only on rock and mineral ages recorded on mindat.org for this locality and is not necessarily a complete representation of the geochronology, but does give an indication of possible mineralization events relevant to this locality. As more age information is added this table may expand in the future. A break in the table simply indicates a lack of data entered here, not necessarily a break in the geologic sequence. Grey background entries are from different, related, localities.
