Its celebrated Gipfelkluft lies at approximately 2,670 metres, steeply below the summit and accessible only under extremely demanding alpine conditions. For decades, this remarkable occurrence has yielded extraordinary Fluorites, often displaying multiple generations of crystal growth and an astonishing variety of internal colour zoning.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTectonic stresses and natural weathering have frequently affected the crystals from this high-alpine locality, making well-preserved crystal faces far from common.
