    The quarry was in fact active from 1950 until 1978 and is still today one of the most important mineral deposits in the entire Italian peninsula.

    At the time, the extracted material was transported to the port of Trani and then sent to Porto Marghera, where the aluminum processing plants were based. At the beginning of the 1980s, the extraction of bauxite became less and less usual, given the emergence of foreign materials, which are easier to extract even at lower costs.
