Improving Mindat.orgSOME CONFUSION in Portugues localities & photos

10th Jan 2007 00:09 UTCRui Nunes 🌟 Expert

Dear friends, have to report the following situation:

Where is the locality Bom Sucesso No.2 Quarry, ChÃ£s de Tavares, Mangualde, Viseu District, Portugal?

Have updated some time ago these photos to the above locality

http://www.mindat.org/photo-75699.html

http://www.mindat.org/photo-75948.html

http://www.mindat.org/photo-75949.html

and now they erroneously are at NÂª SrÂª da EsperanÃ§a Quarry, Quintela de Azurara, Mangualde, Viseu District, Portugal

Have also added some minutes ago a pic (quartz) to Bom Sucesso and have observed that now is Bom Sucesso nÂº 4?

Thatâ€™s ok there is the possibility that a new locality have been added I guess.

But insist where is Bom Sucesso no. 2? and why my pics are in the wrong locality ?

Thanks a lot

Rui Nunes

No idea, how this happened, but we had problems before with the Nª Srª da Esperança Quarry. The log file indicates this locality was changed to Bom Sucesso nº2 Quarry and then Bom Sucesso nº4 Quarry by Luis Miguel Soares Martins (approved by Peter Haas), and then changed back by Luis Alves to Nª Srª da ... (approved by Peter Haas).

Will add again Bom Sucesso No.2 ... and fix the photos.

Is the quartz http://www.mindat.org/locationedit.php?pho=86018

from No. 2 or No. 4?

The quartz is from No. 2 - the initial quarry added on Mindat which I visited twice and where I have collected these minerals.

Hi everyone.

Rui, Bom Sucesso nÂº4 is a granite quarry on the right side of the road, leaving Chas de Tavares. Bon Sucesso nÂº 2 is in front of Bom Sucesso nÂº4, on the other side of the road , and it's a quarry mined for gravel.

Hope it helps.

Cheers, LM.

I was there onde, but didn't find nothing... Although i heard of big quartz cristals from there (DJY told me...).

Cheers, LM.
