Field trip to the most important Pb-Zn-Ag mining area in Spain

 

Twelve members, together with one of the advisors (Dr Joan Carles Melgarejo) made a field work in the Pb-Zn-Ag mining area of La Unión (Murcia, SE Spain). The touristic gallery of the pyrite mine Agrupa-Vicenta was visited, and different zones were sampled for study. The visitants gratefully acknowledge the collaboration of Dr José Ignacio Manteca. You can see some photographs of the tour here.
