El Peñoncillo mine
Name(s) in local language(s):
Mina Concepcion


This was the most relevant iron mine in Malaga province since the foundation of the la Concepción iron mining and steel corporation in early 1826, by Manuel Agustin Heredia, a famous businessman from Spanish society of the middle 19th century. At the beginning of the 20th century (1909), the mine was worked by the English company "The Marbella Iron Ore Company Limited", transporting the mineral ore to the UK.

La Concepción or Peñoncillo mine is a remarkable calcium-magnesium skarn deposit within a heterogeneous sequence of marble-biotite gneiss-green orthoamphibolites "hornfels", related to a high grade regional metamorphism event (catazone-Blanca Unit). The unit is strongly folded and fractured, showing a syncline-anticline structure where ores are accommodated. The geological scheme is closely related to the tectonic border of the Alpujata massif, where the metamorphic sequence is overthrusted by alpine peridotites (lherzolite type). Crystalline gneisses are banded and strongly folded, containing cordierite-plagioclase-biotite-pyrite and amphibole.

Marbles are granoblastic and banded (white colour), where amphibolites lenses bearing magnetite are interlayered (ortho-amphibolite).
As mentioned before, host rock and iron ores are strongly folded, forming asymmetric syncline. As a result, ores often form wedge-shaped lenses which generated problems within the underground works and mine explorations.

Ores were preferably worked following pyrite-magnetite veins and masses refusing pyrrhotite. Pyrite and minor chalcopyrite developed later than magnetite ores.
