Near "Cerro de Los Chivos" demonstration is "Manganeso", showing a run on surface of 150 meters in which uranium is associated with abundant manganese (Manganite), seeming to take precedence on the sedimentary structural control.
"Manganeso" primary mineralization consists of Manganite, Psilomelane, Autunite, Uraninite, Pitchblende and Muscovite.
