Description Anthropogenic minerals on the waste tip of the Kukla coal mine in Oslavany are described. In 2005, sulphur, gypsum and hexahydrite were colected and verified. New phases for the locality are secondary anhydrite, aragonite, hematite, calcite, konyaite and spinels. There are three main stages of the origin of these phases. Hematite and spinels formed at high temperature during burning of the mine waste. Anhydrite, aragonite, calcite and gypsum are younger and originated from the solutions. The youngest phases are konyaite and hexahydrite and according to climatic condition repeatedly recrystallize on the surface of the coal dump.
