The Steinmeer is located on the western edge of the approximately 15 km² Schellerhauer granite. In the period between Carboniferous and Permian, this rose as molten magma in the gneiss of the Erzgebirge basement and in the surrounding Teplice rhyolite and solidified below the earth's surface. Over time, the Schellerhauer granite was exposed by erosion.
The penetration of the Schellerhauer and other granites in the Altenberg area was accompanied by a partial transformation of the adjacent rock. This also prevents the formation of numerous deposits, e.g. B. of tin and iron connected.
