A spectacular new find from the normally crystal-barren Oetztal-Stubai Crystalline Complex in October 2023: Goethite pseudomorphing Pyrite cubes (partly hollow) with Quartz and Orthoclase variety Adularia. These open vugs also rarely contain Chalcopyrite, Arsenopyrite, Malachite, "Fahlore", Galena and Sphalerite variety Marmatite. The location is in about 2600 m altitude in a steep rock face in the vicinity of an old mine, that was already abandoned in the 16th century.

A nice Zircon in Sanidinite from the Volcanic Complex of Latium.
The correct locality name is "Botte, Vetralla, Viterbo Province, Lazio".
Greetings from Tuscany,

Thank you, Sante, for the correction of the locality. I just had the information from the accompanying label. Could an admin please write the correct locality name? I cannot edit it again.
