10cm x 9cm x 7cm
Specimen of euhedral smoky quartz crystal 6cm tall on chunky white albite (feldspar), with a little muscovite? mica. The smoky quartz is coated with a second generation of quartz, giving it a rough and more opaque appearance. This unfortunately is typical of many smoky quartzes from the Cairngorms, though they are more gemmy inside. Found 2003 from some old diggings on the north side of this mountain. (Author: Mike Wood)

Some Austrian localities (as Nassereith, Imst or Bleiberg) are known for wulfenites. However, the wulfies are found on the Bavarian side of the border too. A once famous locality was the Höllental molybdene mine near Garmisch-Partenkirchen. During Second World War the mine was taken up again for a short time. I never saw a real good Höllental sample (not on pictures, not in person...) but it is told that these wulfenites were as good as the Austrian ones from Bleiberg, Carinthia. The only sample I ever saw (thanks to ebay) is now in my collection. I think this specimen is just a reference (crystals up to 5 mm), but it gives a suspicion of the Höllental wulfenite´s quality... but you wouldn´t pick up something like this if it´s labelled with Mexiko or Arizona.
