Some decent fluorite specimens came out of this mine during the early 1990s. A very old silver and cobalt mine, which also produced bismuth and lead ores. It was started around 1552 and worked intermittently until 1849. In 1821, it was amalgamated with the König David Mine, which lay just north of it.
