Mines de Can Palomeres , Malgrat de Mar, Maresme, Barcelona, Catalunya


Important iron mines exploited since the early 19th century with a large network of tunnels (over 5 kilometers) and numerous entrances being inside all interconnected becoming one of the largest of Catalunya, getting to build a complex and elaborate transportation system ore to the coast with a suspended line of carriages that allowed the ship loading without, docking

Exploded some mineralization stratum-linked into Silurian materials, mainly formed by iron oxides and carbonates with abundance of phosphates.
