Summary

[edit]
Description
Deutsch: Karstquelle. artesische „Biberquelle“, nordwestlich von Langenenslingen, Schwäbische Alb. Der zum privaten Agrarbetrieb „Obere Mühle“ gehörende ca. 20 m messende See, seit dem frühen Mittelalter Reservoir für einen Mühlbetrieb, ist heute noch zur Stromgewinnung angestaut. Die Karstquelle speist den nur rund 9 km kurzen „Biberbach“, der südlich Riedlingen in die Donau mündet.
Das Karstwasser stammt aus dem Niveau der Zementmergel des Weißjura (ki5). „Die lokale Höhenlage und die Durchlässigkeit der eher als Wasserstauer bekannten Schicht, lassen auf eine Störungszone in Nachbarschaft der ‘Friedinger Verwerfung‘ schließen.“

English: karst spring of the “Biberquelle“, northwest of Langenenslingen (a community 13 km northeast of Sigmaringen), Swabian Alb. The spring is framed by a 20 m lake, feeding a mill since early medieval times. Today the karst water is used to generate electric power. Thereafter the spring’s karst water forms the rivulet “Biberbach”, which flows into the Danube after only about 9 km. The karst water emerged from the marly formation “Zementmergel”, one bedding of the South German White Jurassic (ki5). Marly rock beds are rather known to be impounding, but here this is not the case. Geologists therefore think, that the “Friedinger” tectonic fault near by may be a proper explanation for this exception.
