    Hiking

    The Eastern or Ándara Massif is one of the three large massifs that make up the mountain chain of Los Picos de Europa. Two types of mineralization benefited from it, one made up of pockets of calcite with caramelized sphalerite and some calamine. And another secondary type based on white and red calamine, some sphalerite and calcite gangue. This second type was exploited by Mr. Mazarrasa until its almost definitive exhaustion in these mines, in 1929.
