a city of the Austrian government of Laybach, in the circle of Adelsburg. It is on the river Idrizza, in a mountainous district, where are some of the richest mines of quicksilver in Europe, which have received greater activity from the neglected state of the similar mines at Almaden in Spain. The city contains 320 houses, with 3650 inhabitants, who are chiefly dependent on the mines for employment. Long. 15. 3. 45. E. Lat. 46. 0. 48. N.
