Mindat lists 60 mineral species from this site, including two for which it is the type locality – ferri-obertiite and oxyphlogopite. It is likely the site will primarily be of interest to micro mineral collectors.
It is important to use the full locality information here; there is another Rothenberg Quarry in the Rhineland-Palatinate area of Germany. I have made this mistake myself!
