The old galery entrance

Spar quarry, Maricá, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Entrance to the old Spar mining galleries.

Spar mining is still active since the 70s, but today they operate exploring crushed stone (granite) for civil construction. These galleries in the photo were from the time that pegmatite was exploited to produce industrial feldspar, and have been abandoned for several decades. Today the place is visited by sports enthusiasts, and by bathers who risk bathing in its flooded galleries.

Photo from my mineral trip in April/2024.

Entrada das antigas galerias da mineração Spar.

A mineração Spar ainda está ativa desde a década de 70, mas hoje opera explorando brita (granito) para construção civil. Essas galerias da foto eram da época da exploração do pegmatito para a produção de feldspato industrial e estão abandonadas há várias décadas. Hoje o local é frequentado por praticantes de esportes e por banhistas que se arriscam a tomar banho em suas galerias alagadas.
