Name(s) in local language(s):
Trandorf, Mühldorf, Waldviertel, Niederösterreich, Österreich
Abandoned graphite quarries. Located NNE of Trandorf.
Belongs to the same graphite mining district as Amstall.
Note: Several sublocalities were distinguished by collectors (see sketch in Goldmann & Löffler, 2008):
"Trandorf NE 1" = western-most pit.
"Trandorf NE 2" = central open pit.
"Trandorf NE 3" = area NE of Trandorf NE 2, at which occur quartz with minor albite, massive calcite, tremolite and subordinate alunite. No graphite occurs here.
Known for the occurrence of unusual zeolites.

| ⓘ ' Formula: Ca2XAl2[Si2O6(OH)][SiO4](OH)2A Description: 1) "Pumpellyite" was erroneously assigned to Trandorf by Brandstätter (1987). However, it occurs in the areas "Korundgraben" and "Weinberg Mitte".
2) Re-interpretation of the analysis in Brandstätter (1987) suggests that the sample is possibly Al-dominant, even if taking into account the dominant-constituent rule. (Comment Uwe Kolitsch) References: |
