    Dolomite rock is mined here. Dolomite is predominantly white, pink or gray in colour, the color being darker the higher the magnesium content in the rock.
    Admixtures of other minerals can also color dolomite yellowish, greenish or brownish.

      Impressive quarry near Kümmersreuth

        For safety reasons, the view into the quarries is almost completely circumscribed by means of a raised wall and a fence. Here you can take a look at the up to 60 m deep break with the terraces created during the dismantling.
