Goldberg Mine (on the label) is, surely, an mistake. |
Goldberg Mine (actually two of them, Goldberg I and Goldberg II) and Glanzenberg Mine were in the same area and consolidated later on. So it is not really a mistake ;-)

Hi Tobi.
Yes, although Mineralienatlas just mention Boulangerite in Grube Glanzenberg, not in Goldberg I.
