    GB: In the surrounding area, small walls made of regional rocks, mostly greywackes and clay shales, can be found in several places. The rocks are already described in the geological overview and can be easily distinguished by the following characteristics: Layering/thickness, grain size, sorting, minerals, rock fragments and color. In addition, quartz veins occur in all rocks. These are a form of crystallization of quartz: a hard, transparent to white mineral.
