Unbenannte Grube, Teschengraben, Krieglach, Fischbacher Alpen, Steiermark, Österreich
19th century arsenopyrite-pyrite mine, of which a number of dumps and three abandoned adits remain. There are also some outcrops of arsenopyrite-pyrite-(sphalerite)-bearing quartz veins, both natural and along a forest road. Quartz boulders with metatorbernite or anatase and monazite-(Ce) have also been found in the area.
Located about 5 km south of Krieglach on the eastern slope of Teschengraben at N47.50155 E15.57232 elev. approx. 1100 m asl.
