German GLP mine used as an AT mine?

I got these photo showing German engineers preparing holes for AT mines. It seems that the hole is to large for the German T-mines (diameter 320 mm). Than I found only in a British document the info about the German GLP mine, that the explosive charge of the GLP could be used as a land mine. In German documents I haven't found info about the Kugeltreibmine 38 (in UK named GLP mine). In a Russian document is not given an info that the mine could be used as a land mine. Has anybody info to this mine when it was used as a land mine?
