Notes
:
From to Robert Lavinsky: “It should be noted that Calcite is not actually reported from this locality according to the entry on mindat.org, but it's very possible that the piece was found somewhere in the vicinity of the Mauerkeeskopf, and it's exact point of discovery was kept secret by the Strahler who found it, a common practice among the Alpine diggers.”
