Yellow baryte crystals (up to 1 cm) on quartz from the Tiefer Blühend Glück Stolln mine, Streckewalde, Marienberg district, Erzgebirge, Saxony. In the last 5-10 years many old tunnels, mines and dumps in the Marienberg district have been prospected and re-discovered. Due to that fact there are now a lot of specimens from that district available, such as beautiful amethystes, fluorites or barytes. However, Streckewalde is a rather rare location, most of the "new" Marienberg specimens come from Vater Abraham mine or St. Johannes mine/Wolkenstein. (Author: Andreas Gerstenberg)
