Hozarco Mine (Desfiladero de La Hermida), Piñeres, Peñarrubia, Cantabria, Spain
This is a small ancient lead mine, located in one of the "walls" of the "Desfiladero de la Hermida", a narrow pass just before the "Picos de Europa" Mountains. Very close to the broad valley of Liebana. This locality is a paradise for the collector, and specifically for the lover of micromounts.
