Flows, plugs, necks, dikes, including breccias and tuffs of basaltic, basanitic, nephelinitic and phonolitic rocks. They lie within Zitau-Bogatynia Rift (Kopecký 1978) and represent a small part of extensive province, major par of which lies in Czech Republic and eastern Germany.
The outcrop areas, most of which are less than 1 km in diameter are spread over an area c. 12 x 10 km (Jęczmykowa & Kanasiewicz 1987; Alibert et al. 1987; Panasiuk 1980).

Geochronology

Mineralization age: Cenozoic : 41.4 ± 1.2 Ma to 19.8 ± 0.8 Ma

Important note: This table is based only on rock and mineral ages recorded on mindat.org for this locality and is not necessarily a complete representation of the geochronology, but does give an indication of possible mineralization events relevant to this locality. As more age information is added this table may expand in the future. A break in the table simply indicates a lack of data entered here, not necessarily a break in the geologic sequence. Grey background entries are from different, related, localities.
