THE VISEGRÁD MOUNTAINS On the western side of the mountains on Lencse Hill, near Esz­tergom there is an Eocene coal deposit which is still worked today. The tunnels and galleries of this deposit revealed not only sedimentary rocks but Miocene andésites. A relative rich mineral association was found in this mine with some first-class crystal groups of calcite, barite, marcasite, and pyrite. Fig. 47 CHABAZITE, phocolite (6 cm xl) Dunabogclány The Visegrád mountains - like the Börzsöny mountains - consist largely of Miocene andésite and andésite tuffs (they are separated only by the Danube). During the main period of crystallisation, large crystals of plagioclase and horblende were formed. At a number of places in these volcanic rocks exotic inclusions (xenoliths) of sedimentary and metamorphic origin were found. At the
