Michelle_541Cervená vein is at the level of the Daniel adit near the Rovnost shaft. This area was used for radon water storage for spa in Jáchymov, known as Step's springs, the leaking water from the vein structures and enriched in U-ore deposited on the footwalls provided very high activity. Primary ore veins cut metasedimentary rocks in the contact aureole of a Variscan granite pluton. Veins were deposited by mesothermal fluids. More than 420 minerals of primary and supergene origin are found at this locality. A tertiary basalt dyke cuts ore veins. Ore lens body is located on the hanging wall, with supergene mineralization deposited on the footwall
