Grube Glückauf, Hütschental, Harz , Landkreis Goslar, Niedersachsen, Deutschland
Ancient lead and silver mine, abandoned in 1928. The main ore was argentiferous galena, included in quartz-baryte-siderite veins of the Spiegeltal vein system ('Spiegeltaler Gangzug'). Around 1750, the deposit was worked from up to eight shafts.
Located in the Hütschen valley, 2 km NW of Wildemann, about 3.5 km NNE of Bad Grund and about 7 km NW of Clausthal-Zellerfeld.
