The town of Uis, not far from the Brandberg. |
The mining area known as Brandberg (Fire/Burnt Mountain) is actually situated in the Goboboseb area, just west of Brandberg Mountain, some 80 km from Uis, the closest town. The area is hot and dry and rather inaccessible, making mining conditions very tough. Crystal specimens are becoming increasingly hard to find; miners chisel away at the hard basalt rock, sometimes for weeks, before finding a pocket, which may yield only a few crystals. The basalt cavities of the Brandberg area are well known for their quartz and prehnite specimens, producing arguably the best quality specimens in the world.
