Great rarity from this only important discovery of stibnite of stibnite in entire Austria. The crystals are sharp and very glossy, some larger ones even free-standing and end-pointed, which is very rare at the locality. The locality is non-productive, no new material came out since decades (last mine was closed in 1991). No significant damages to report.
