Two large abandoned serpentinite quarries and one small one.
Coordinates are those of the northern large quarry; the southern large one has: N 48° 31' 48'', E 15° 25' 57''.
Known for very thick whitish anthophyllite reaction rims.

The serpentinite also contains minor pegmatoid rocks.

Located ca. 1 km north of Rastbach (and west of Gföhl).

Wurschenaigen is a nearby serpentinite occurrence.
