The mineral deposits of Rügen Island include glacial gravels that may be collected from one of the numerous gravel pits, as well as concretions in Cretaceous chalk, such as flint and pyrite-marcasite nodules.

The chalks are well exposed as cliffs along the eastern and north-eastern coast near Sassnitz and Kap Arkona.

It has to be noted, however, that a major part of the coastline belongs to a nature reserve, where collecting is strictly prohibited.

Anything reported from here that does not fit the mineral assemblage of carbonate sedimentary rocks originates from glacial erratics and drift of Scandinavian provenance.
