The photographs illustrating this article come from the book of Jean-Luc HOHL : MINERAUX ET MINES DU MASSIF VOSGIEN
The production of silver reached its all time high ( 3.5 per year) during this period, largely thanks to the contribution of Alsace's richest ever mine, the Saint-Guillaume-aux Bois de Saint-Pierremont, located on the side of the valley that belonged to the Dukes of Lorraine.
Thereafter, mining began to extend towards the upper valley, thus attracting settlers and stimulating the growth of the village of Echery.

Les minéraux de Sainte-Marie-aux-Mines sont enfin remarquables par leur variété, déjà soulignée par Monnet vers 1780 : "Les mines de Sainte-Marie-aux-Mines, le val de Lièpvre, où la plus grande partie des mines de ce district se trouvent, auraient suffi seules dans leur temps de splendeur à de grands détails minéralogiques.
8 espèces minérales nouvelles ont été à ce jour découvertes à Sainte-Marie-aux-Mines dont la moitié seulement a été décrite avant 1980.
Cuprite, cornubite, cyanotrichite, agardite, clinoclase (anciennement appelé "aphanèse"), parasymplésite, scorodite et bien d'autres minéraux d'oxydation sont particulièrement développés au filon Saint-Jean.

 Munster Cheese -- French Cheeses
The best cheeses come from the haute vallée de Munster itself, but this cheese is also made in Lapoutroie, Sainte-Marie-aux-Mines, Villé, and other villages.
The cheese is at its best during summer and autumn, when it is made from the milk from the haute chaumes ("high stubble") of pastures that have already been mown for midsummer hay in the Vosges.
This round cheese with a fat content of 45% in dry matter, has a diameter between 12 and 20 cm, and a thickness between 3 to 5 cm.

It seems that Monnet is the first author having described with some objectivity minerals of Sainte-Marie-aux-Mines; he wrote notably an interesting about cerargyrite or silver chloride
The silver bearing minerals are firstly represented by native silver generally in tufts, more or less circumvented filaments, or in dendrites often made by the stacking of octahedrons.
It is undoubtedly regrettable that the best samples were not more numerous to be preserved.
