Inactive tin-tungsten mines.

Mining concessions:
No. 1511 Sítio das Chãs, registered on 06-05-1924
No. 1373 Alto da Serrinha, registered on 21-06-1923
No. 1263 Lapa do Marião, registered on 09-12-1922
No. 845 Padrão, registered on 02-04-1919


NOTE:
The denominated "Chãs Mines" correspond to a large geographic area which covers the districts of Aveiro (Cabreiros parish, municipality of Arouca) and Viseu (Candal and Manhouce parishes, municipality of São Pedro do Sul).
These mines were now splited into three distinct localities where the most probable concessions are mentioned:
- Cabreiros
- Candal
- Manhouce
If any of your photos is displaced from the exact locality, first of all, thanks for your understanding and please edit and move them to the correct locality.
Padrão Mine was not considered in this new scenery because there are many minerals that were collected in this mine and apparently it is the most productive of all.
