Kremikovtsi, Sofiya Oblast (Sofia Oblast), Bulgaria

Кремиковци

Carbonate-hosted sedimentary exhalative iron(+Mn)-barite-sulfide deposit.
Open pit mine, located north of Sofia.
Since 2009, an Indian steel tycoon is the owner of the mine, and for private collectors it is very hard to get an entry permission.
