Abstract
The Zadní Hutisko locality is situated in the Sobotín Massif, originally Devonian rocks strongly affected by the Variscan metamorphism. Hornblende schists host low-temperature hydrothermal fissure Alpine-type mineralization. New finds coming from the talus of Homole Mtn. (1209 m) confirmed presence of mineralization with dominant prehnite accompanied by actinolite, albite, epidote, K-feldspar, pyrite, quartz, titanite. From the zeolite group, minerals of the stilbite and heulandite subgroups and laumontite are present. New is the occurrence of babingtonite, proved both by the powder-XRD and EDS analyses.
