The "stone oven" on the mountain queen ...

... and his remarkable ribs

"On the rock show is 2-3 cm thick aplite-Gängchen with quartz and Orthoklaseinsprenglingen in mikropegmatischer matrix, which were described by Schuster as well as Rhenopalite and are herausgewittert ribs."
(Schneider and JUNG 1991, Geological Guide Saarland)

This seems the genesis of the ribs on the "stone oven" (Photo: Achim later) , a rock formation south of the queen's settled in Upper Churches (Freisen, Landkreis St. Wendel) in principle: Magmatic melts or hydrothermal solutions penetrated in a well-formed by pressure relief columns.

Pressure relief could during the solidification of magmatic melts known form columns, particularly basalt columns. Most likely dicksäulige forms also occur in rhyolites, andesites and dacites. On the slopes of the mountain we see the queen "stone sea", a glacial stream block, sporadically (probably dacitic) columns (Photo: Hahl).







rhyolites, andesites and dacites, however, are often characterized by platy secretion as pillars of education. The excerpt below image (photo is from 2005 Roland Vinx, stone fixed on the ground, p. 135) a Flakiness bankige-form shows in phonolite.















Also on "The stone oven" I guess a platy secretion with subsequent filling of the columns by intrusive melts. Whether the conjecture holds, for further examination in the field. It will also be important to detect vertical structures that can prove that the course not only stayed on one level, but continued into the next higher "floor" moving to get there, turn horizontal spread.

platy secretion or columnar solidification and subsequent magmatic filling may have occurred only at a time when surrounded was the whole rock body still (estimated at many tens of meters or a few hundred meters) below the land surface, the so far not eroded Permian sedimentary rocks. Possibly followed by erosive exposure of the "Stone Cabinet. Also, a tilting of the rock

Moreover, we must assume that at least since the erosive exposure of the massif "The stone cabinet" of course, the weathering was gnawing on the rock: "ribs" and spaces have since been thus worn away already strong and been set back far be. "sliding" or similar signs which were due purely outwardly appear, it is therefore my opinion from the genetic interpretation are excluded because they have long since erosion would have fallen victim.

Since the term aplite often is restricted to granitoid plutonic rocks or Subvulkanite finds himself of course, the question of the main rock. The old local term 'Tholeyit ", which refers to BRITZ 1953 south of this rock of the mountain summit Weisel, today must lead to plenty of confusion. The type locality on Tholeyer Schaumberg has been studied by Jung in 1958 on mineral composition and chemical composition and the old had to be Tholeyit-term perspective. came after the intrusion of the storage aisle Schaumberg-shaped deposit it in a gravitational Kristallisationsdifferentiation: In effect, this means that could make a whole range of mineralogical and geochemical variations. could with the once as "Tholeyit / tholeiite" referred deposits - from today's point of view and today's terms - the rocks of andesite, basaltic andesite or Latit be meant in a broader sense, even a rock variation of olivine up to diorites. Thus, the old "Tholeyit" to a currently very vague, notion has become, with no more can be done - with a term from an earlier time, other research background.

Geotourism - potential and perspectives

for a "Kooperationstag" LEADER of two regions, the Rhineland-Palatinate Palatine Highland County and the St. Wendel country was on 28 October in the town of Freisen invited. In the context of lectures and a workshop used the 40 present action and the decision makers Forum for lively exchange on cross-border potential of a geo-tourism development. The workshop was organized by Achim later by the ARGUS concept transferred from Saarbrücken.

as external experts were Reinhard Diehl, director of the Geo-Bergstrasse-Odenwald Nature Park, and Michael Hahl concept as Geotourism expert project-related staff of the ARGUS involved. The papers and the subsequent exchange of approaching the topic from different angles Geotourism and made different development possibilities clear. Key questions also arose from the consideration of whether a tourism economic development of Geoparks Geopotentials with or without certification would imagine, and how large a cross-border redevelopment is possible. - A focus then, as he is likely to make in all areas that deal with a specific theme tourist valorisation.

The presentation of the geographer Michael Hahl (Image: ARGUS concept) by the project office approached proreg to the topic with the key message that the provision of Geopotentials could contribute significantly to the experience value of the countryside, the tourist capital of the Highlands. It was then narrowed the term Geotourism by the themes focus Earth and environmental history and the interactions of flora, fauna and cultural landscape history was identified and linked to capture and communicate with the aspects of Geopotentials resource protection and regional economy. Geo-tourism media, target groups and the connection with similar outdoor concepts, such as walking and cycling were further focus of the talk and finally, the question "with or without a certificate" discussed and some examples within and outside a Geopark area scenery. structure

To make the selection of geo-tourism offers a typing approach was taken by Andreas Megerle dividing the diversity of geological heritage in three types of Geopotentials viable and that each specific prospects for a suitable Landscape marketing associates. Hahl added this typing with regional examples, pointing out that when valuing a geo-tourism, not least, must go around an attractive and communicable model determination. For this sub-region of the Saar-Nahe Basin suggested the Impulvortrag particular the issues of "post-mining landscape" and "find the center of agates" in front, geo-tourism aspects, therefore, are in Freisen already picked out to date and developed markets such as the projected Achatweg Hellerberg.

was finally taken up the subject Geotorismus in mining areas and examples from other rural regions illuminated in such a theme renatured HeidelbergCement and reclaimed quarry Nußloch-Baiertal south of Heidelberg. That visitor activities such as "mining of minerals or fossils" for a geo-tourism development on the one hand, may be promising, on the other hand, reacted cautiously and must be applied appropriately to the ideas of sustainability and the claim of a sustainable resource protection needs to be, was given in the presentation and in the following discussion taken up again. Finally, pointing to Michael Hahl some concrete perspectives and possible issues for an inter-regional Geotourism Development in St. Wendel circuit and in the neighboring county Palatine Mountains could be adopted.

Achim concept introduced later by ARGUS, following new developments in geo-tourism product Freisen and moderated the other short presentations and discussions.
